THE BEAUFORT NEWS BEAUFORT. N. C. Thursday, Nov. 9th, .1939. PAGE TWO Look Young By Striving For Posture Ey PATRICIA LINDSAY SI'i:: Syndicate. W.N'U Service. THU way you carry yourself is not only indicative of what sort of person you are, but it either adds years to you or makes you look younger. Whe 1 wealthy ladies pay high prices for courses in self-improve-nent in the leading salons, the first esson they get is a posture les on. And the course does not pro ved until the women have learner' Wrong Posture, Right Posture. how to walk correctly and to sit correctly. "Walk proudly," "grow tall from the midriff" and "tuck In your butttfeks" as If you had been spanked, are the three most simple rules to remember as you walk. "Sit In the entire seat of a chair," "tuc In your tummy while sitting," and "dont cross your knees," will tk8 you far In sitting posture if you will out remember them. Authority Advises These Exercises From one of the leading salons, that cf Miss Dorothy Nye, I secured these two corrective exercises, which, if practiced daily, will firm the abdominal muscles and give flexibility to the hip region. Both are necessary to acquire an erect and agile carriage. EXERCISE 1 1. On back with right knee pulled back to chest and both hands elasped around knee. 2. Swing left leg back over head as far as you can, then come to sitting-up position. Pull from hands around knees and flatten back, keep neck and head high. Hepeat with right three times. Then left three times. Twelve times altogether. EXERCISE 2 1. On clasped knees, head back, hands back of body and stretch downward. 2. Eerd -.-lowly forward, keeping head up and buck fiat until sitting on heels. Drop head to floor and relax. 3. Keeping head down, round the back, pull in abdominal muscles, and slowly raise the body. Move ment begins at lowest vertebrae and slowly lifts thighs away from heels at same time. Head and snoulders rise last to original position. Repeat five times, working up to fifteen times altogeth er in a few days. Not difficult are they? Try going through them every day for a month. HINT-OF-THE-DAY If a child possesses his own aids to body health and cleanliness he Is more likely to use them. "My very own hair brush" "My very own tooth paste" makes him proud. If he is taught how to use them and why he must use them, a mothrr will have little difficulty in jetting him to do so. Of course all children go through that obstinate age when any sug gestion is vetoed, when every re quest calls forth a lengthy argu ment. But even during this ctauo of growing pains the child is quite likely to slip off and do what he has been told to do after he has satis fied his ego by displaying his obsti nance, that is, providing his earlier years have included a daily groom ing routine. 'Fall Is Vegetable Garden Time, Too Not many : i tenti-'ii to tr.eir at this scu-on o that's wrwur. sa il s give much at vegetable garde: f the y-jar, bu s H. U. Niswonsj- or, horticu'tur;. lege Extension t of the State Col Servies. The gar den soil sriou. i be prepared lor spring planting in the fall, he says. I Give trie garden a heavy coat of I stable manure or sweeping from l .k.. ..,, if.... V,..,,.-.. v;-....,,- ,!. vises. For each one-horse load of manure, broadcast 25 pounds of lfi per cent superphosphate. If the garden area is not subject to soil erosion, plow the manure under. I.eove the soil in the rough and do not hairo.v or otherwise prepare the spring garden. Tlie horticulturist also .-aid that winter onion sets and shallot may be set out now for spring onions. "Ohe young growth may be pro tected from severe weather by cov ering with leaves," he advised. "If you plan to grow mature on ions for market by planting the seed next February or March, be gin preparing the soil now. Se lect soil which will work easily and which will not bake after a rain." Xiswonger also suggests that the growth of spinach, kale, ami other greens can be increased if side (iressed with one pound of nitrate of soda per 100 feet of row. Cov er the greens with straw in order to prevent freezing, and you will secure a longer cutting period. Cold frames may be utilized to grow lettuce and other greens at this season, he stated. Recommendations of the special ist on storing collards and cab bage are as follows: Dig a trench deep enough to accommodate the roots and stems; pull up the col lards and cabbage and set them out in a trench and cover both stems and roots with soil. Set the heads close together but do not pack against each other. Set a plank or board on edge on each side of the trench and bank on the outside with soil. Cover with pine brush or corn stalks. When freezing weather arrives cover with a layer of dirt. Good Potato Seed Stock Is Available Dr. l. I Poole, plant natholo- e ist of State ( the. quality ot st-K-k available liieive, reports that Irish potatoe seed i.i Maine is better than in many years. He recently spent t.'.o weeks inspeeti.v.r fields I of Cabbb-ds in the New l-'rijflan 1 action. "There is very little late lligat, black leg scab, and Rizoetonia in the seed potatoes as compared with other years," he said. "We will not get much nicrossis such as showed up in the seed stock two years ago. The size of the pota toes is inducive to good seed stock." However, Dr. Poole reported much concern in Maine over a new bacterial disease. "In fields where the disease was found, the pota toes were eliminated from certi fication," he stated. "For thi reason growers should not pur chase Selected seed because of the danger of it being infected with the organism that causes the bac terial wilt. One may get good seed from Selected stock; on the other hand it may be badly dis eased. Certified seed is worth 'he difference in price." The plant pathologist said that Cobble potatoes are not as badly infected by the iu-w wilt as Ka 'h: 'ira: "ml Green Mount Tins. In l is report on the seed pota .. outlook in Main Dr. Poole --aid that the dry weather in that station during the summer made a g'vat reduction in the yields. "Ifow-ev.'i. the CobbL-r v party was harvest 'd before the f .ll ains bc an." he explained. "Boy ci tified .') ' hi!' yields aivl more econo-Mical pro duction," was his pat tiiv trivia?

"I don't know whether the coun ties that have failed to send in even a single application are inde pendent or indifferent, or wheth er their schools have local sources of commodities and need no help from us, but I am certain that in many cases the failure to partici pate in the program is due to in difference on the part of school au thorities or a lack of understand ing of the project" Langston said.
