WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowmon

Many women live in small
apartments or in homes with
small rooms. Some of the best
figure molding exercises are a lot
of trouble because they entail
showing furniture about in order
to have enough space. In some
instances it is absolutely impos-
sible to take these exercises.
Therefore, today am going to
give you a few lying down ones
which take little room and some
which can be executed standing up.
/. In practically any room you
can find enough space for this one.
Lie on your back with your arms
resting on the floor. Bend both
knees up close to the stomach
and hold them there while you
roll from side to side. Keep the
flngertips on the floor.
g Lie on the floor on your back
with your legs straight and your
arms resting on the floor at your
sides. Lift the right leg up as
far as you can with stiff knee.
AS you lower the right leg, lift
the left leg. One leg moves up
as the other moves down. Keep
the knees stiff and do not touch
the floor with your heels after you
begin the exercise but bring the
heels close to the floor.
8. Often the waist exercises
take quite bit Of room. too. Here
is one which doesn't. Stand with
your right side to the wall. Place
your right hand on the wall. Raise
your left arm up close to your left
ear, elbow straight. Stand far
enough away from the wall SO
that you feel the pull at the left
side of the waist when you bend
toward the wall and touch the
fingers of the felt hand to the
wall. Straighten trunk and con-
tinue.
4. Stand facing the wall.
Start with elbows bent and fingers
touching the wall in front of you.
Let your fingers crawl up the wall,
Strengthening your elbows and
rising on your toes and reaching
as high up on the wall as you can.
When you reach the highest point
possible hold while you count to
10. This is a good stretching ex-
ercise for your waist.

waist exercises which take a few
inches from your waist measure

not to scar the surface-and wipe

You can broil fish entirely on

In any case. the plank must be
first thoroughly heated through

also served as plates-today's ver-

platter. Fancy cooks dress up the
plank with mashed potatoes, piped
through a pastry tube to form a
dainty border around the fish,
chicken, steak, or what have you;
tomatoes and mushrooms and pos
sibly onions may also be added.
The planks-which may be
bought in any good housewares
department. should be of we'll
seasoned. smooth grained oak,
grooved for steaks and chicken
and plain for fish. Never use a
plank that has cooked fish for
meats-better buy two planks.
They come in a wide range of
sizes. Be sure to measure your
oven before sallying forth to buy
plank, so that you can be sure
the broiler flame will reach to the
edges Of the plank.
