acquired by

exercising the body in one way or the other. Our bodies were made for action and when we grow lazy and do riot exercise them they lose their gure appeal quickly and our movements grow jerky and un- lovely to watch.

Various Forms Of Exercise

If you are a habitual reader of this column you know that there are many methods of exercising from which to chose. A woman may study ballet * ballroom dancing, she may join a gym- nasium or swimming club, she may walk three miles a day in loose clothing and firm supporting shoes, or she may go through a routine of calisthenics at home, Sports also offer a very pleasing and efficacious form of exercise. So no woman has an excuse for being physically lazy.

The grand thing abart sufficien exercise is that it makes one feel 50 fit and energetic. Some women are under the delusion that they must save their strength so there- fore they cannot exercise. Unless a physical malcondition prevents you from taking exercise, you will discover that regular exercise- done rhythmically and willingly creates strength. It does not tax strength.
