It is because our manner of living offers of-fers almost no opportunity to use the larger, important muscles o! the body-the abdominal, back and thigh muscles. We live inactive lives. We travel by motor or train more than we walk. We do our housework with electrical aids or have servants do it for us. Most office jobs demand eight hours of sitting and frequently in poor posture. Selling work in stores requires the over use of the legs and feet. Sewing, writing, bridge and many other so-called activities ac-tivities are actually inactivities! Games No Substitute. You probably think that recreational recrea-tional sports such as tennis, bowling, bowl-ing, badminton, golf and riding are sufficient exercise. But they are not. They stimulate the body through increased circulation and allow the skin pores to secrete waste but they do not build the body symmetrically because they are "one-sided." Seldom is a woman adept in using both her right hand and her left hand in sports. Walking can be an excellent activity ac-tivity if it is done on soil which allows al-lows a spring to the step and if the body is carried with good posture at a steady pace and if you wear loose clothing and correct walking shoes. Swimming is the exception in rec reational sports. It exercises all the muscles of the body providing no one stroke is overpracticed, and it develops the body symmetrically and beautifully. These Exercises Will Help So, you see, unless you can swim daily it becomes quite necessary for you to resort to corrective exercises ex-ercises if you desire good health and a supple body. Exercises that will offset the ravages of our seden tary, inactive living. Here are two for firming the vital abdominal muscles, mus-cles, or in other words, for flattening your tummy! Why not begin scien tifically to develop a pleasing fig ure? (Exercise 1) Caspar and Balthasar became attached at-tached to them Melchior means "king of light" Caspar, "the white one." and Balthasar, "the lord of treasures." The first king offered gold, the emblem of royalty; the second, frankincense, in token of divinity; and the third, myrrh, in prophetic allusion to the persecutions persecu-tions which awaited the Child. Many Bible scholars suppose the three wise men to have been Magi, members of a priestly order of ancient an-cient Media and Persia. Medieval legend calls them the Three Kings of Cologne, and the cathedral there claims their relics. They are commemorated com-memorated on January 2, 3 a.nd . 4, and particularly tt the Feast of the Epiphany. r Call of the Winter Mode For Versatile Fur Styling By CHERIE NICHOLAS - Iff ' v - i t t w ,h $ 1 - .

Then pull knees with clasped hands back to chest gradually raising the hips from floor three to four inches. Lower Low-er hips keeping knees bent Repeat Re-peat four times and relax. Repeat not more than 12 times each day. (Exercise 2) SEEING the beauty, the ele- and versatility of tiiis season's fur fashions it would seem as if each and every designer is possessed pos-sessed with the idea that nothing short of a masterpiece must be turned out in order to meet the demands of a fastidious public. It is a fact we are growing more exacting each year in regard tc the furs we wear. We have come to expect of fur that it be styled with all the versatility of supple fabric, and that every phase of fashion from hats to shoes and even dresses (very smart ones are being turned out made all of thin supple fur) be expressed ex-pressed in terms of fur. The encouraging en-couraging thing about it is that the new fashions in fur not only come up to expectations but they go far beyond. This season it is not only that there are coats and jackets and various va-rious apparel wrought in fur but especial emphasis is being placed on "little furs" as they are often called. By which we mean the most charming little odd neckpieces and hats with bags to match and as for muffs, to be properly stylewise you really must carry a muff from now on until spring. The new fur showings give the impression that furriers find it no "trick" at all to manipulate furs with as much sang-froid as if it were the most tractable and supple fabric. Note to the left in the picture pic-ture an ultra smart suit tailored of black galyack. The pelts have been rendered as pliable as cloth and are here expertly worked in achieving this new box-jacket style with its graceful trim-fitting slenderizing slen-derizing skirt The high hat is of black suede and galyack. For Thin Woman with Protruding Abdomen Sit on floor with legs wide apart and knees slightly relaxed. Place hands palm downward just behind hips for support Now push your abdomen out, to right, back, to left making a complete circle such as vou would in a Hula-Hula dance! As you circle consciously tighten the muscles. Circle five times without with-out stopping. Relax. Circle five times in opposite direction. Circle twenty times in alL The double-breasted reefer new "longer" jacket centered in the group is in rich Persian lamb. This is an ultra chic style with the "new" look that makes it convincingly of 1938 vintage. The hat worn with it is also of Persian. It has an insert of bright grosgrain and little red leather motifs held with silver em broidery. The smartest fashion going is the fur-jacket costume. There are such legions of fur jackets this season and they embrace every silhouette from bolero to the widely exploited "longer" jacket and the furs employed em-ployed in making them run such a gamut of luxury and novelty, that the best one can hope to do is to touch a few highspots in describing them. A new fur to some of us, guanaco by name, is receiving a lot of atten tion this season from the spectator sports angle. This tawny fur is attractively at-tractively streaked with white. It is a natural guanaco that is so smartly used in the youthful sports jacket pictured in the foreground. The Breton worn with it is of multicolored multi-colored hand-woven wool shaped into a rounded brim. As to hats of fur if you keep pace with fashion a fur headpiece to complement com-plement your fur coat or your fur neckpiece or the fur trim on your dress becomes a necessary luxury.

The short puffed sleeves and the flaring skirt hemline are important style features. To say this exquisite dress, which made its debut at a style revue held in the Merchandise Merchan-dise Mart. Chicago, "fits like a glove" is no idle boast for It does just that The reason for its ideal moulded-to-the-form look is that it is fashioned across the bust and at the back of matalex satin quite after the manner of the amazing las-tex las-tex form-fitting bathing suits that were such favorites last summer. Ostrich Restored To Ancient Glory Comes again the ostrich upon the fashion scene, as naturally it must since the current season is one of greater pomp and splendor. It is true Edwardian elegance that the new ostrich trims now bring into the fall and winter millinery picture. pic-ture. The tiny hats with the sweep of a single ostrich plume from back to front are amusingly quaint and wonderfully flattering. Have the fun of trying one on, you'll probably decide de-cide to buy it at first glance in the mirror. Those cunning little tips of yore! See them this season clustered, prince of Wales fashion, atop tiny velvet evening caps or surmounting upswept curls that give the correct evening coiffure. There is promise too, that intriguing in-triguing ostrich neckwear and ostrich-trimmed evening wraps will frequent the winter fashion scene. Fall Styles Call For New Corsetry In the new silhouettes the trend is toward an uplift bustline, that gives more of a corseted figure. Since the call is for a slenderized waistline that extends into a sleek and slim body line up to the bust it is very necessary to look into this matter of the new corsetry that designers offer in order to conform to demands de-mands of a "different" figure from that heretofore advocated in fashion's fash-ion's realm. fcii Must Western West Point k Gary Cuts Speed Sub Holds the Fort Uy Virginia Vale 1 TN HOLLYWOOD there is a i. man named Jack Schulze who is one of the wizards of modern times, and it's dollars dol-lars to doughnuts that you haven't the faintest notion who Jack Schulze is.
