Virginia Wilson, exten sion nutritionist, says that you don’t necessarily have to have beautiful naturally curly hair or big brown eyes to be considered attractive. “But you do have to have good posture.” How many times at about four o’clock in the afternoon have you felt completely exhausted? “That listless feeling may stem from organic diffi culties, or it may arise from some thing as apparently simple as poor posture,” says Mamie Whisnant, ex tension specialist in home manage ment. “The effects of an expensive, tailor made suit are lost on the woman with poor posture,” says Julia Mclver, clothing specialist. “People actually get their first impression of you from your posture before they notice what you’re wearing or how you speak. Posture tells others just how you feel—physically and mentally.” Posture is the way you hold your self whether you’re walking, sitting, or just standing still. Good posture is a habit that can be cultivated, but it will take exercise and lots of de termination. There’s a right way and a wrong way to do your daily house hold jobs. Use the right way—it’s much simplier and easier on you.

W. Overman says that in most cases it’s simple. Just provide water and salt, and maybe a ' shelter in the undergrazed area. This will bring even the most reluctant cow to the area where there is still grazing. Mr. Overman cites the results of a study carried on by the U. S. Forest , Service over a six-year period. The ■ study shows that the development of i watering places is one of the best ; ways of getting better distribution of grazing. Cattle were successfully attracted to upland ranges and away from heavily grazed bottomlands through , this means. Even temporary water i ing stations that took care of only a ; few head of cattle and lasted only a ■ short time proved well worth while. 1 Salting was another successful • means of attracting cattle to less-fav i cred area. And it is not necessary to locate salt and water close togeth er, as is commonly believed. The study showed an average lapse of nearly seven and a half hours between : the time cattle ate salt and drank water, even though they could have walked directly from salt to water in on heavy-duty models and the rugged Thriftmaster engine on light- and medium-duty models squeeze more miles out of every gallon of gas.

That’s because Chevrolet trucks traditionally command a higher trade-in value. Buy now and be ahead all waysl 20 minutes. , Sheds or other shelters provided as C protection from the weather should also be placed in areas where grazing i is ordinarily light, according to Mr. ’ Overman to serve as additional help i in obtaining better grazing distribu tion. 1 SuTMAGICWORDrSHOW WAY TO SUCCESS i 1 How can financial security and ' self-coqfidence be attained?
