Recently ! have had an un-
usual influx of letters which say
that the writer's have lost weight
successfully but that their hips
and thighs linger on in too large
proportions.
This is not unusual but rather
a usual pattern. You must realize
that when you reduce with diet
alone. and no exercise, you will
simply turn out to be smaller
YOU, smaller in the bust and the
waist and the abdomen and the
hips and thighs. You will lose
proportionately all over. That is
the important reason for taking
exercises along with your dieting
If there is no reason for not
doing so. With exercise you can
speed the loss in certain spots.
However, even if you do eXer-
else, your hips and thighs are the
hardest spots to reduce. You will
lose much more rapidly in the
waist and the abdomen. There
fore do not. be discouraged. It
just takes a bit longer to get
the hips and thighs reduced.
Today l will give you two OF
the very best exercises for these
spots. l have given these before
in this column but they are the
best and I therefore repeat.
l. For the back hipline: Sit on
the floor. Lean back on your
hands. Lift your legs off of the
floor with stiff knees and roll
from side to side, catching your
self with both hands at the end
of each roll.
2. For large thighs. Lie on the
floor on your back with your
legs straight and your arms rest
ing on the floor at your sides,
Bend both knees and place your
feet on the floor fairly close to

Seven of the 13 steel districts
