What suffers, besides your shape when you allow this “gird le’s” powerful bands to grow saggy are practically the works: and elimination. Need to take up the slack? Take exercise. Here are two routines, designed to make your muscular girdle as strong, taut and elastic as good as a postwar corset: For the first exercise, sit on the floor with legs outstretched. With out bending your back, come for ward from the hips and TRY to touch your toes. You won’t be able to make the contact until you’ve practiced this one several days, but effort counts as exercise. For the second, lie on your back on the floor with arms outstreched above your head. Keeping arms up and heels glued to the floor, pull up to a sitting position, using your adbominal muscles tc hoist you. Return to position and relax; take this one only a few times at first. Increase the count daily as soreness in adbominal muscles gradually appears. PERSONALS Major Howard H.

Why don’t we make it a fam ily project this year—instead of leaving it all to Mama. Let Dad go through his closet— or the third of the closet that is called his “half”—and decide what things he can get along with out. Let even the smallest children help look through their clothes for dresses, overalls, sweaters, coats and shoes that are out grown. Make sorting the clothing that is stored away in the basement or attic a family affair, not forget ting that if it has been stored away a year or more, it might as we‘ll be given away without any reser vations, except for the question “Is it warm and still wearable?” HOW ABOUT A CONTEST? There might even be a contest GUN POWDER A MISNOMER W E A T H E RFORD, Ola. (U.P.) Smokeless gun powder is a para doxical misnomer. It is neither smokeless nor a powder, declares Dan Rivkin of Southwestern Instn tute of Technology at Weather ford, Okla. Smokeless gun powder is actu ally a glue-like form of cellulose nitrate and is unually molded into cylindral shapes, he explained. Used as a propellent, the “powder” must be processed so it will not shoot projectiles too slow or too fast, but at the exact speed re quired. The air at high levels is cold because it doesnt absorb much heat and doesn’t easily retain it. in every family, to see which mem ber can collect the largest pile of clothing. That- might make it a little easier for the ones inclined to hoard things because “1 might want it some day” or because “It’s still perfectly good.” to part with everything that isn’t a necessary part of their working wardrobes. Not only would American fam ilies collect more garments this way, but every member of the family would share in the warm feeling of satisfaction that comes from doing something real and constructive to help suffering peo ple. This second clothing collection for the destitute people of other lands shouldn’t be just Mama’s project. She can direct it—but every member of the family should' have a part in the giving.

They fit right, make you feel spruced up, and have a soignee look which inspires pride of ownership as long as they last.
