Why Grow Old?
To Help Figure

the water, holding onto float or
the side of the pool. These are
very f1gure-wise.
The indentation and bump on
the outer thighs ruins many
lovely silhouette. Also women
past early youth begin to show age
in fiabbiness of the upper, inner
leg. The leg motion of the breast
stroke is fine for both of these
faults and I know one woman who
frightened up and firmed the upper
leg marvelously by doing the fol-
lowing exercise in water:
Hang onto the float, or the side
of the pool. facing it. Bend both
knees up toward your abdomen.
IStraighten the legs, at the same
time separating them widely.
Now, with stiff knees, pull the legs
together.
This exercise is similar to the
kick of the breast stroke and will
firm up or reduce (if there are
fatty deposits) the inner leg line.
Nothing is more restful or gives
the neck muscles better stretch
ing than floating on your back. If
you cannot float it. is because you
cannot relax in the water. Take
Ia big breath, push yourself up on
the top of the water, arms extend
ing sideways (palms up), head
thrown back and chest up, the
water coming to the eyebrows.
Relax.
Here is a little trick for those
of you who have any fear of water,
which usually comes from the
feeling that you may not be able
to place your feet on the bottom
when you wish to.
Bend your knees and pull them
up close to your stomach. In
other words, make yourself into
"a ball and then pull down with
the hands, placing the feet on the
bottom.
If you would like to teach your
self to swim or to improve your
strokes or learn a new one. send

Swimming in itself is a fine
figure-holding exercise. The breast
stroke is corrective to round
shoulders, firms the bust and Sims
the thighs. The overarm stroke
or the crawl is bust developer,
while the scissors kick of the side
stroke or crawl create a lovely
hipline.
So when you swim you are doing
your figure as we'll as your health
a favor. There are also some
exercises which can be taken in

TWO QUERIES?
fFrom Mrs. T. w. G., Falls Church,
Thinner for rubber cement can
be obtained at any stationery

Has any one any ideas for mid
night snacks with Coffee after
the bridge game? I would like
something different than the usual
meat and cheese sandwiches. 1t
shouldn't be too elaborate or take
long to fix. A cheese pastry, per-
haps. Also. I don't like to serve
at that hour anything Sweeter
than coffee cake.
Can some expert gardener offer
a rank amateur suggestions for
trimming a 2-foot-high bayberry
hedge? I make hard work
of it, it doesn't look too
neat when I'm through, I
have lots of trouble cleaning up
the clippings and even wearing
two pairs of heavy rubber gloves
still sometimes get thorns in my
fingers. use the large conven-
tional hand clippers.
DOGWOOD AND HOLLY.
(From Miss L. A. c.. GunSton
Mdnor.)
When I noted comments on
planting dogwood, holly, ETC., I
recalled how many little trees I
have transplanted by simply dig
ging up when very small, sticking
in a hole and watering well. Many
are huge now-the dogwoods sur
round my house and the holly,
too. Little cedars that spring up
in the flower gardens were just
pulled out and transplanted-all
grew. OF course, they were not
taken from their native soil. It
is really very simple and not at
at complicated.
GIFTS TO ENGLAND.

ings, raisins, sugar (be sure it is
wrapped in cloth), canned meat of
