BY JAC AUER
Slender waistlines and flat abdomens are the ideal of American women this spring.
New Spring suits won't look right, unless you get your waistline in trim.
This exercise pulls your waistline and better yet, even- tuully holds your waistline stretched by strengthening the muscles that do the trick.

Stand erect, feet apart, clasp your fingers behind your head and step forward with your left, foot, holding your weight on the back one. Now pull your head forward, clear down to your knee on your extended left leg. if you can get it that far. You probably can't--the first day. But keep per- severing. That is your atm. Straighten, stretch your head

Love Is Just the Same
We women with our own chil dren have an Idea that it is a dif- ferent kind of love with which foster parents regard the adopted baby. Those who know say there' is no difference. A woman said recently that she loved her dead niece's baby, that she had adopted, better than she loved her own,
This, however, is not the point. A foster parent is anxious-almost overly anxious-to do what is best for the chiki. And wonders whether or not it is best for the child to know the truth...
Why Need the Child be Told?
Also, if it is best, at what age he should be told. Is it better for his parents to tell him before the news comes from schoolmates, or to take a chance and wait until his judgment and reason will come for which her doctor had given to the rescue and soften the blow. her awhitish lotion that settled
