you should hide them with hair softly falling over the top of the ear in a becoming secep, and not brushed away to leave the cars exposed.

HOW WELL DO

YOU WALK?

ONCE knew a girl whose life was completely changed because she happened to see herself in a news Alm. She saw for the first time her own ugly and ungraceful walk, and realized, with #shock, how it spoilt the effect of her carefully chosen outfit.

So she took steps. When she was married. a year later, her husband told her he was first attracted by her beautiful carriage.

It only needs a little perseverance to learn. to walk well. And, the results include not only admiring glances but definite improvements in health. After all, how can you breathe properly or digest your food if you do not hold your body as nature intended?

Step Out Freely

THE first thing to remember is to keep your feet absolutely straight. This not only makes for gracefulness but for the minimum of fatigue, because the mechanics of your body demand that the knee must bend in line with the unkle over the foot, and if you tum your toes out, or in, you can

for yourself how you upset things.

Don Cossacks

To Return To Hongkong

After Engagement

In Macao

The Don Cossacks are coming back to Hongkong.

General Platoff's singers, who gave what the public thought was a fare- well concert at the Queen's Theatre last night, will appear here once more after their engagement in Macao and on their way to Manila.

The choir will return from Maeno on September 8 and at 9.30 p.m. on that date will sing to Hongkong before going aboard the Empress of Conada for Manila. This concert will be unique in that the choir poses to repeat many of the numbers which have won the greatest popu- larity in Hongkong, and prices will be reduced for this performance.

T.T. Australia Your Victorian grandmother was taught to take short, mincing steps because it was "ladylike," with the result that she was olderly at 40. But in good walking, which means healthy walking, you should walk from your hips, not from your knees swinging the leg forward freely.

The hect should meet the ground first, but "not with the kind of thump which à German soldier displays when he does the "goose-step." Use it merely as a lever to transfer your weight to the ball of your fool.

In this way your progress will be smoothly easy because the weight of your body will be always carried steadily forward.

Good Carriage Counts

Now you can't walk well unless you carry yourself well, so keep your body erect, with your head held high and your chin tucked in. This position will have the effect of making you tuck tail in as well.

You'll And that this will improve the shape of your skirts as well as of your body.

A simple exercise, which will help you to attain the perfect balance which is the secret of n tood walk, is to raise yourself slowly on your toes while they grip the ground, arms stiff by your sides, while you gradually inhale; then slowly sink back, letting your breath out, contracting the lower abdominal wall as you do so.

Persevere for Beauty

HERE'S another.

Stand erect, tall and Il chin tucked in, hend high. Now bring your forearms up sideways to shoulder level, at the same time raising your left knee at right angles to your body; next throw out your arms and straighten your leg so that it is stretched straight out in front of you.

Return to your first position and repeat, using the right leg. Be careful to keep the knee of the standing leg braced during this exercise. It won't be easy at first, perhaps, if your balance is really bad, but persevere for a week or so, morning and night, and you will find you are gradually gaining control of your body,

Moreover, if you are one of those nervous people who are frightened of traffic because they feel they cannot move quickly, this exercise will help you to retain your balance in an emergency,
