Her sole concern is for her six-year-old son, she says. He is an only child, reserved and quiet, and she has always been a wor- rier and overly protective of him. He can't eat this or that, she still warms his milk, and she frets unduly if he goes without a cap or .runs a little more than she thinks he should. Since his dad's death, she doesn't wake him in 4 |the mornings, if he is sleeping soundly on schools days. "He needs his rest," she .will say--but he also needs to attend school, to keep up with his classes. Also Maude won't go anywhere if it means she won't be home % |waiting to welcome Junior after a colored polka dots and is wide enough to be a real protection from raindrops.

By TRACY ADRIAN, * KEEP IN TRIM Columnist Answers Requests For Thigh Reducing Exercises By IDA JEAN KAIN One sure sign that summer an the bathing suit season is almost here is the number of -urgent re- quests for exercises to improve the thighline. Many of you want to know i fat or thin thighs are in- berited, and if they can be changed with exercises or diet. Figures prove that certain char- acteristic contours stem from the limbs of the family tree, and the normal variations in fat distribu- tion are inherited. However, you do mot inherit flabby muscles nor and outer thighline rechapes this measurement. Kinesiology, the science of mus- cular mov e ment, reveals just which muscles shape the thighs. The muscles on the front of the thigh get enour™ use, for they are brought into 'on in everyday movements--1 ;, sitting, walk- ing. Therefore, the front portion of the thigh is usually shapely. It's th muscles that flank the inner and outer thighline at the top of the hips that lose tone from lack of exercise. Today's exercises con- centrate on these muscles. school--afraid he might think she, too, "had gone for good." And : |she won't go any place where she and her husband went together. "Painful reminders," she says-- et she talks of him every breath. he stayed with her parents for weeks after the funeral, and might have stayed indefinitely, except Junior insisted on getting home for Christmas--so Santa would know where to find him. MIGHT BOOK HELP? Maude cries constantly and frets so much about Junior that he is miserable. He needs to be a boy, and do boyish things, instead of becoming a neurotic who can't ad- side, right hand braced om floor for balance. Movement: Raise right leg side- wards about 10 inches in air, then bring under leg up to meet it, and hold for a second, then lower. This exercise acts on the muscles that flank the inner thigh border. Change sides and repeat, three times. P sition: Same, lying on left ior balance. Movement: Raise top of leg and make wide circles from the hi 'oint, circling 10 counts in one di- rection, then 10 in the opposite di- rection. Change sides and repeat the exercise. A short thick muscle, the glu- teus medium, gives rounded con- tour to the side of the hip. To reach this muscle, from a standing posi- tion, swing leg sidewards, then forward, and follow with a curv- ing movement toward the side and rear, Hit this rhythm , , , 1-2- Widowed Mother So Pampers Son That Friends Are Concerned just. As I have a normal family life, with four sons and a hus- band, I feel sorry for mother and son; and while I know that chil- dren have to be properly watched, I think there is a limit. It is unfair to the boy to pamper him so; he needs to learn independence. Another friend and I have dis- cussed the situation and agreed that one or both of us should give Maude a good talking-to. She may resent it and I may lose a friend; but it might be worthwhile if it would snap her out of this. Can you suggest a book to help her? And can you tell me what to say to her, and how to say it? Please don't delay. J.S. FEARS HER WEAKNESS Dear .S.: All that you say of Maude's behavior adds up to a picture of an excessively depend- ent personality. She feels she can't face life, adult fashion, without her husband's supporting presence. That is why she lapsed back into her parent's home to stay indef- initely. Also why she won't go places where she and he went to- gether. And why she talks of him constantly--a kind of emotional Ideal Dairy COTTAGE CHEESE Low IN COST HIGH IN PROTEIN food value, Eeshy prepared for light lunches, snacks ond salads.

King St. E., Phone 5-5812 It' is her childish dependency upon her son's company for heart's ease that prompts her to let him oversieep on school days: and sparks her flausible argument that she must on hand to greet him when he gets home m school, lest he fear she had van- ished too. He would thrive on hardier treatment, be healthi and happier for it, if she hersel had the maturity of character to set a wholesome example of self- reliance--in dealing with the facts of the: case. Maude's tearful moping and fussy "smother-love'" are sym- ptomatic of a chronic anxiety com- plex, now aggravated by shock and stress. Being immature, and lack- ing confidence in herself as a per- son, she unconsciously assumes she will do badly as a mother, and compulsively exercises poor judg- ment under the influence of a cloud of fears. (Thus proving the Scrip- tural saying: "The thing I greatly feated hath come upon me.') FEAR IS REAL THREAT The major threat to her wel- fare (including her son's) is fear itself--not the circumstances of her widowhood.
