They are usually done before each meal. The amount of exercise taken each day will, of course, depend up- on the patient's strength and co-op- eration and the condition for which he is being treated. The doctor wil] decide just how much exercise is required. The exercises are eas- ily modified to fit the needs of each individual patient, Of course, fatigue should be avoided. All movements, according to Dr. Taylor, should be repeated three times unless there is some specific reason for doing them less often or more often, In these exercises, first the muscles are contracted, then they are relaxed and finally there is a complete rest period, Taking the Exercises When taking the exercises, the patient lies on his back without a pillow. The hands are placed near the head The elbows are bent and rest on the bed. The feet are about a foot apart with the' toes pointing straight upward, The covers over the patient should be loose and not too heavy. One of the exercises is called toe stretching, In doing this the toes are extended and spread as far The Movie Column By HELEN BANNERMMAN Canadian Press Staff Writer Ralph Richardson, the Bri- tor who was knighted by the ew Year's for his contri and movies, is be a Sok air g {lm version of the novel pro- be a five-star production Fontaine already cast as t-English heroine and as the young Jewish A camera qrew will Apri) for back- Ww! 2hyf M5 BE LITT ! | i g E $ Katherine Grayson Bandit," a period mu- to be produced this spring by Joe Pasternak.

NEW PHASE FOR EDUCATION An educational experiment ap- plied to Britain's fighting Services during the war, which proved high- ly popular and successful, has re- sulted in an important new de- velopment in methods of education in Britain's schools, It is the in- troduction of current affairs as a regular subject into the educational syllabus. This change is a direct outcome of topical discussions and ranged by the War Cabinet to en- sure that every fighting man should have adequate opportunity to ac- quire a basic knowledge of world affairs.

The circle of our liberty is only a point, 'This point is that where we protest against all these oppressive and fatal powers, where we say: Crush me, you shall not have my consent! We are able, by will, to take our stand In opposition to necessity and refuse it homage and obedience: this is moral freedom. But save for this, we belong, body and goods, to the world; we are its playthings, as the dust is the plaything of the wind, as the dead leaf is of the stream, God at least respects our dignity; but the world tosses us with scorn and fury on its waves, in order to make it manifest that we are at its mercy, From "The Private Journal of Henri Frederic Amiel," translated by Van Wyck Brooks and Charles Van Wyck Brooks, 'Try a Times-Gazette classified ad for quick results, [J WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 29, 1947 - WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT-- Who Leads Down Theatre Aisle? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN Dear Mrs, Beeckman: A group of my school chums and I would very grateful if you will please answer the following ques- tions which have bothered us: 1, Who goes down the aisle of a theatre first, the man or the girl? 2, When one is leaving a dinner party is it correct to say to the hos- teas, "Thanks for the dinner"? 3. Where does one put the knife and fork when passing the plate for a second helping? 5: Is it correct to put your el- bows on the table during a meal? 5. When a man is walking on the street with two girls, 'where does he wa'k? 1. The usual, and generally ace cepted, procedure is for the man to go first to give the tickets or seat- checks to the usher, and from that point on for the woman to follow the usher, the man following the woman, Personally, I think it more sensible for the man to follow the usher, and then, arriving at the row in which the usher has indicated their seats are, to stand there to help the woman enter the row. In a moving picture theatre, when there is no usher, the man goes ahead to find the best avallable seats, the woman following, 2. No. When you are leaving, your expression of thanks is for the hospitality; for example, "Good night, Mrs. Smith (or 'Anne') , . . I've had such a happy time, and thank you so much for asking me," or "I had such a good time this ev- ening, enjoyed every minute, You and Bob are perfect hosts!" However, although you never "thank" the hostess for the dinner, it's entirely proper to compliment her (and she'll be delighted, of course) about a particular dish (for example, "I've never tasted such wonderful cake") or, at the end of the meal ("That was such a delic- lous dinner, Anne, everything so perfect"), 3, When you pass your plate for a second helping, leave your knife and fork on the plate. The knife and fork should be placed side-by- side on the plate: fork with the tines up near the . centre of the plate, the handles of both knife and fork s'ightly towards the lower edge of the plate, £0 ag to prevent their being pushed off, 4. It is never proper to put your elbows on, or even elbow, on the table while you are eating. And at a home dining table there is never any reas» for putting elbows or an el>cw on the table because thee i; no reason for leaning across the table, But the elbows-on-tabl: privilege is more or less acc:pted nowodays in a restaurant when two cr thre: pe-ple are dining tog ther at a smal t ble and it is dif {cult to make yourself heard aboys the noise or music, without leaning for- ward, In other words, although to- day's custcen tolerates elbow-on-tab- le vsed for a reason, you shouldn't maka these exceptions-to-the-:ule your excuse for leaning on the table while you are eating, or half re- clining on the table while you are or aren't eating, 8: When a man is walking with two girls, he walks on the side of the pavement nearest the curb.
