PAGE EIGHT "THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, MAY 5, 19 BEAUTY FOR YOU -- Oh, See How They Run! By HELEN JAMESON Let the average woman of thirty or over run for a bus or street car and you can be pretty sure there will be a smile on the face of every spectator. It is a funny sight. We have to acknowledge that it is. Those who are plump hump along with a queer, hitching movement. The skinnies throw their heads and shoulders forward and lope. But the athletic girl! She is different. She has kept in form. She speeds along gracefully, like a deer. If there are smiles for her, they are smiles of admiration. After the late teens or early twenties, most women lose the gift of swift, easy motion. Exercise is distasteful to most of them. They aren't interested, They don't want to spare the time, though many of them bawl continually about changes in their figures -- changes that are not for the better." Tennis players keep alert, move with grace, even when they are well into their fifties. Their muscu- lature is strong, resilient and res- ponsive. They have kept in form. Their blood streams are travelling normally. They have well-develop- ed chests and good complexions be- cause they get plenty of oxygen into. their lungs. Tennis and swim- ming are ideal exercises for retain- ing youthful lines and one's beauty glories. To reveal the terrible truth, few women even walk beautifully. If they can't do that, how. can. you expect them to be lovely pictures when they pick up their heels and run? Some of them slouch along, some shuffle, some swing their hips --an odious habit. Their movements lack grace and spirit. In many cases the trouble lies in wearing the wrong kind of shoe. One's feet should be on the ground, not hoist- ed up on spiked heels, when walk- ing. : A woman may straighten her shoulders, hoist up her chest, fancy that her posture is perfect. What she should think about is her back- bone. The positions taken when walking, sitting or standing can im- Many of them bawl about adverse figure changes, * * » prove the back or injure it, weaken the spine or strengthen it. This subject is worth looking into, my friend. Regular exercises will create the free hip action that makes for graceful movements -- running ot walking. Do the torso-twist every day if you fear that you are getting muscle bound, an affliction that may come upon one long before the autumn of life. Stand tall, feet five inches apart. Send the hands straight - out in front, palms down and on a level with the shoulders. Swing the arms far to one side, far to the other, pivoting at the waist line. Keep the legs rigid. TIPS FOR TEENS Smooth Out Your Embarrassment By ELINOR WILLIAMS What's your big embarrassment, the awkward moment that prevents you from feelinz at ease and ruins your fun? Embarrassment is usually caused by uncertainty -- when you don't know what to do or say -- by a tact- less remark or a mistake, fancied or real. Why not let me know your "embarrassing moment" and we'll try to help you remove the cause of it, so youll enjoy more social smoothness. Like this:-- "I'm 16 and have dates," writes a high schooler, "but I am always embarrassed when I have to tell boys what time I'm supposed to come home. My parents expect me home by 11 or 11.30, because there's nothing to do in our town except movies and the last show is over at 10.30. This gives me time for a soda afterwards and then I must go home. Most of the boys expect me to stay out until midnight at least. How can I tell them without sound. Couldn't be Cuter Mother, it's such fun to sew this easy outfit for your tot!

As a matter of fact, most boys have less respect. and admiration for-a girl who has no "deadline" and can stay out all hours every week-end. It's likely to give the impression she's "easy to get" or hasn't parents who really care for and cherish her. Boys are influenced partly by your par- ents' and your own valuation of yourself; if your mother and father take good, sensible care of you, your dates are more likely to feel that way, too. So don't hesitate to say, "My folks expect me home by 11" or "Eleven o'clock is the zero hour for coming home." Be casual, yet definite, about it, then drop the subject, for your date is likely to take it more or less as you do. If you are simply matter of fact, he will be too if he has smooth manners.

BUNDESEN, M.D. ECTOPIC PREGNANCY A strange and fortunately rare state of affairs is signified by the words "Ectopic Pregnancy." In the usual circumstances, the baby grows in his mother's uterus or womb, a structure ideally suited to shelter and nourish the develop- ing child. But, sometimes, for rea- sons still unknown, the new being begins his growth in the fallopian tube, where he has neither space nor the blood supply needed for full development. This is the condition known as ectopic pregnancy. As a rule, the patient will have missed one or more of the regular periods and will believe that she is feel well and will have. colicky pains in the lower part of the ab- may feel faint on occasions. This 'condition is difficult to severe internal bleeding because the tube ruptures. However, while the symptoms will indicate that there is some condition of the abdomen that requires emergency treatment, its exact nature may not be sus- pected. In these instances, immedi- ate operation is advisable, for in this way the condition is discov= ered and the woman's life is saved. On the other hand, when the symptoms are not so severe, there is often a tendency to wait to see what develops rather than to carry out an immediate operation. In such instances, there is always dan- ger that sudden and severe bleed- ing may take place, and under such conditions operation becomes more hazardous. It would seem that the safest course to pursue is to have an op- eration done whenever it is be- lieved that an ectopic pregnancy has occurred. During the operation, the affected tube, as a rule, is removed, since, if it was responsible for the de- velopment of the ectopic preg- nancy in one instance, the condi- tion might recur in a subsequent pregnancy. It is important that the occur- rence of ectopic pregnancy be borne in mind so that, if symptoms sug- gesting 'it develop, operation may be promptly carried out, thus re- sulting in the saving of life. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS A Reader: Is it possible for a person to put on weight by just eating sweets, cakes and cookies? Answer: Such a diet would not necessarily cause a gain in weight but it certainly would lead to poor health, since not all the necessary food elements would be supplied.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My husband's brother is to be married soon. My husband is to be the best man. I have been told that the best man must pay the church expenses, and also is expected to buy the flowers for the bride and the bridesmaids. I am to be one of the bridesmaids. Will you please tell us what our "financial" obliga- tions are? AH. You, as bridesmaid, and your hus- band, as best man, really have only two "financial" responsibilities: (1) you each provide your attire to be worn at the wedding, and (2) you and your husband send a wedding present to the bride-to.be. The positions you ..ave been 'invited to have at the wedding are supposed to be "social" responsibilities , . . not "financial" responsibilities! Don't let anyone persuade you and your husband htat he is to pay the church expenses or that he is to provide any ef the flowers. This is a racket htat has been growing rap- son why it grows is that Mr. Milque- toast Bestman doesn't dare speak up! Your husband's brother and his fiancee's family know perfectly well that the bride's family pay all ex. tion . . . but they are asking them- selves why they should pay these penses of the church and recep. expenses if they can "hint" that the best man should pay them! And any bridegroom who would let any- one but himself have the honor of sending his bride the flowers she is to carry at their wedding is the kind of man who would try to persuade his brother, his best man, to pay for other wedding expenses he's not supposed to pay for. Again , . . The Best Man Racket! Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My brother has been asked to be best man at a civil-ceremony wed. ding to take place in June. He has been told the he MUST take care of these four expenses: (1) the bri- dal bouquet; (2) 'the bouquet for the maid of honor; (3) the fee for WHAT SHOULD 1 DO ABOUT ~ Wedding Expenses Racket? By MRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAN idly in recent years . . . and the rea- | the marriage license; and (4) the liquor for the reception. My brother and I have always thought that the best man's oniy obligaticn is paying for the maid of honor's bouquet. What is your opin=- ion about this? . D.B. I hope your brother isn't foolish enough to think that he was chosen to best man because of his devas- tating charm or because he is'a man of distinction that would make a handsome impression as best. man at a wedding! It is too, too obvious that he was chosen as best man be- cause (1) the bridegroom (and bride) know th-t his financial sta- tus is excellent, and (2) that he is either so unknowing or so soft that he can be persuaded to go along with their high pressure demands | without making even a feeble pro- test. Your brother must be very proud of a friend who will let an- other man pay for the marriage li= cense . . . not to mention his bride's bouquet! The maid of honor's bou- quet is the responsibility of the { bride or her family or of the bride- groom . . . it's not the best man's responsibility. And all expenses of reception should be paid for by the bride and/or her family . . , though the bride is slickly trying to get in on the racket of making your broth. er pay for as much as possible. My advice is: Tell your brother to hold on to his wallet, for these gold-dig- gers still have two months in which to think up other "financial respon= sibilities" for him as best man. TELEPHONE COURTESY By Mrs. Beeckman When someone is talking on the telephone, don't make any com- ments or suggestions; don't ask any questions; don't in any 'way dis. tract his or her attention from the telephone conversation. Its not easy to carry on an intelligent telephone conversation and an on-the-side | conversation at the same time. (Mrs. Beeckman will be glad to answer questions submitted by rea- ders). Otawa, May 5--(CP) -- The pri- ces committee was given some prac- tical suggestions today by which the housewife could cut her family's cost of living. They came frcen Alfred Hales, a Guelph butcher and national direc- tor of the Retail Meat Dealers' As- sociation. Mr. Hales thought the consumer demanded too much "streamlining" of meat, He admitted that it had nothing to do with the last fort- night's rise in meat prices but he { felt the housewife could do quite 's lot to offset that. In the first place, he pointed out, the housewife demands her bacon with the rind temoved, sliced and wrapped up in a piece of celophane. The extra processing of the bacon cost her additional money which could be saved if she bought unslic- ed bacon. Then, Mr. Hales continued, she wanted her rib roast rolled and tied with a piece of string. It might be harder to carve plain prime ribs of beef, but it was cheaper. The committee wanted more sug- gestions from Mr. Hales. "I think the good old Irish stew has gone into oblivion in some sec- tions of the country," he replied. He recommended beef hearts as cheap, solid meat, free from waste. He told the committee that his mark-up on bacon was 20 per cent of the selling price. Committee counsel Dyde asked if this was fair since the bacon was bought from the packing company already sliced and wrapped, The retailer, he pointed out, had only to hand it te the cus- tomer. Could Save on Unsliced Bacon Housewife Demands Fancy Kind Te Mr. ; told him perishable product ana markup was required on it. Mr. Hales also pointed out that an eight per cent federal sales tax on all manufactured and smoked meats. added considerably to the housewife's cost 'of meat. He work- ed it out at 60 cents on a 12-pound smoked ham or five cents on a pound of bacon selling at 75 cents. He attributed the rise in meat pri- ces recentyl to bad weather in the West resulting in fewer cattle reach= ing the market, the normal seasonal fluctuation and consumer demand. "The purchasing power of Mrs. Consumer seems to be holding up," William Hussey, .a Toronto retail er, said he thought a majority of the meat retailers there would welcome a return of price control if it were not for fear of a black market. He said, however, that people were still asking for expensive cuts of meat. CHANGE; it was a a high Are t e functional 'middle age' period peculiar to women (38 to 52 yrs.)?
