The following is a letter from

Dear Mrs. Lowman:
God Bless you! When I

155 pounds, but that wasn't
the worst part. The worst
part was bust 80, waist 36,
hips 4112 inches.
IT am 81 years old and the
mother Of a beautiful 1-year-
old child. I have a wonderful
husband and love both dearly
and now, thanks to Mara

MY new weight is 1S9
pounds. My bust measures
SO inches, waist Is and hips
81. That's a loss Of 16 pounds,
8 inches from my waist, and
AZ from hips! I also lost 4
inches from my thighs. and
51a inches from abdomen. I
am thrilled to death. My
dress size is 13. 1t was 16.
IT never exceeded 1900
calories a day and sometimes
held it to 1000. I did every
exercise you recommended in

I have been around one or

I've noticed several items

they can spread disease

the bird cages and feeders.
Therefore, it's very impor-
tant to keep their cages,
perches and feeding dishes
clean by cleaning them occa-
sionally with hot water and
soap. It is good to set aside
a special time once or twice
a month to clean your birds

School Offers Kinderdance

Extensive travelling, a love for
classical dancing, and the knack
to put ideas into movement all
play a role in the success of
Roy Gean's life as a profes-
sional dancer and instructor.
One Of the unique ideas which
Mr.. Gean has introduced to the
area is "Kinderdance," a class
for four-year-old boys and girls
in which he prepares the pupils
for ballet and modern dance.
Kinderdancers are taught SIM
pie exercises in the form of
children's nursery rhymes and
stories, and the tots learn to
move gracefully right, left, for
ward and backwards.
'They listen to musical
sounds and try to move like the
sounds he explains. Mr.. Gean
teaches them to move with
rhythm whether they move by
stretching, gliding, or by STAG
cato movements.
Following one year of kinder
dance, the pupils advance to
pre-ballet, which includes more
technique and less stories.
Then when the children be-
come seven years old he accepts
them in his ballet classes,
which are strictly classical bal
let.
Eight Of his students will pre-
sent a recital at a P-TA benefit
program at the Veirs Mill Ele-
mentary School on April 20, 81,
and %. An admirer of colonial
dancing and the colorful cos
tuning that goes with it, he has
composed a number in which
girls will dance like doll fig.
ures" to the music of Eli Lily

The ballerinas will include
Carol Whisky, Lynn Fellman,
Jerri Mersky, and jeanne Rose,
in full colonial dresses, while
their partners play the role of
boys. Wearing the pants viii be
