In- fants, packed full of vitamins, are whirlwinds of activity. They can get into one'hair and one's nervous system. They pay for their care in a thousand sweet and tender ways, but mamas must keep young and pretty, so that they will always be beautiful in the eyes of their chil- dren.

French Launch Drive To Sell Umbrellas Paris, Jan. 20.--(Reutéfs) -- The Federation of French Umbrella Manufacturers, which since 1936 has made it its busihess to present the umbrella as an élegant rather than purely practical article in ev- ory well-dressed woman's wardrobe, has launched a great export drive. Starting at home, umbrella manu- facturers have persuaded nearly ev- ery woman in Paris to carry her new "Chamberlaih" umbrella on eve ' All sili umbrellas are reserved for export, while the home market is using a mixture of silk and rayon. Checks are the most popular de- sign at present, bit the newest models are made of plain, colored damask or broche rayon.

THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE '« Glamorizing Good Posture Is A Great Asset By HELEN FOLLETT Actress Ann Miller denionstrates a good daily exercise for figure fitness. LJ L 4 Splendor of carriage is such a rare quality of beauty that the wo- man who has cultivated it is a treat to the eyes. She's a one-woman pageant of pulchritude. Let the members of this good-looks aud- fence ask themselves how many wo- men they know who have grace and the queenly pose. Not many, we'll make the guess. Here is a grand asset that costs nothing. You grow it yourself. It is good for you. Keeps muscles resilient. Turns pale cheeks into pink skin petals. When the straight front corset, that made women stand erect and held in their tummies, went into the limbo of forgotten things it re- vealed anatomical slouchiness in many cases. Comfort was gained, but posture was lost. Restore Graceful Pose To restore graceful pose one must put one's mind on the matter, be body conscious, When fine e has become a habit, lovely clothes will be carried beautifully. Also, it is a health measure. Ten minutes of us calisthe- nics every day should be on every * * woman's calendar of activities. You can't get steamed up about them? All you need is to get a good start. Movie lovelies know that an occa- sional muscle workout is necessary if they are to remain youthful in appearance: You girls who toddle, or lope, or walk with your head pushed so far forward that it goes around the corner before the rest of you, can try it too. Walk Beautifully Make an endeavor to walk beauti- fully. That alone is an advance in physical education. Place the whole foot on the ground, slightly more weight on the toes than the heels. Walk so that anyone coming toward you will not see the soles of your shoes. the body tall. A backbone stretched .its full length tightens the entire musculatory system, holds snug end tight the inner organs, gives expansion to the chest. It takes creases out of necks that have started to go into a state of disso- lution. It reduces the size of the hips and thighs, does a great deal to normalize the figure.

"After all," agreed one news- paperwoman «8 she signed her pledge, "who would want every- body to know all about their clothes before they've been worn? And even less, who would like to find a whole row of identical hats drawn up on docks, worn ty people who thought it would b: nice to copy royalty's fashions?" Many Problems But there's no secret about the problems dressmakers face when they undertake to clothe queens and princesses. The task is full of "musts and must nots." First, royal hat designers must think always of the photographer. It's no good having a hat which looks well just in front. You never know from what angle a photo- grapher may pop up. ' And hats must stick on, what- ever the weather. When the Queen and the prin- cesses made @ trial run in the liner Queen Elizabeth last year, they spent much time on the bridge in a mischiev - Scottish breeze. Right and Wrong A woman reporter, correctly hat- ted, nearly lost her hat in the Clyde but Princess , in an the-face, box-rimmed felt, never had to raise her hand to hold it and no wisps of hair beat arbund her face or straggled dbwn the back of her neck. But above all, royalty must never hide its face. People stand all night to catch one glimpse of Queen Elizabeth's smile, or the cesses' complexions. Dress designers don't have an easy time, either, Skirts must be made so that they are flattering when sitting, and not too short when worn on a plat- form.

CORNELIUS BEECKMAN '| Dear Mrs. Beeckman: I am a business woman, and re- cently I have been promoted to a position 'which necessitates some traveling for my firm. Shortly I am scheduled to make a visit to a city which is the home of several women I met two years ago at a summer resort. We became quite good friends at the resort, and T A proper for me to telephone each of them when I arrive, and invite them to lunch or dine with me at my hotel? Or do you think this would give the impression that I am an invitation to lunch or dine with them at their homés? F.8D It would be entirely r for you to telephone to invi em to lunch or dine with you (If you are inviting a married woman to dine with you, you should include het husband in your invitation.) My suggestion is that you invite to lunch with you at your hotel all the women in the group you met at the resort. That would be a charming reunion-meeting gesture for you, and then whether or not they in- vite you to their homes is up to' them. Does Best Man Supply .Flowers for Maid of Honor?

Apparently, judging by the number of letters I receive on this subject, this kind of "graft" is in- ed by the bride's family. After-the-dance Courtesy Dear Mrs. Beeckman: My daughter and I would appre- ciate your this question: When the orchestra finishes & dance number and the boy escorts the girl back to her group of friends, does he thanks the girl for the dance, or does the girl thank him/ B. D. 'The boy thanks the girl, but the girl immediately makes some reply that shows that she too has enjoy- ed the dance; for example; 'That wes a delightful dance, Bob", or, "It was grand. . .I always enjoy danc- ing with you."

MUNDESEN, 80 far as the physician is con- cerned, the tongue is a tell-tale even when silent, ranking with pulse and temperature as a guage of his patient's eondition, The ap- pearance of the tongue gives. the doctor many clues to work with and may sometimes even indicate the specific disorder he has to deal with, Illness may affect Lhe tongue in three ways, causing it to become pu coated or smooth. hen the amount of fluids in the body is decreased, the tongue becomes dry. Thus a dry tongue indicates that the body is dehy- drated or lacking in water, Little Structures When the tongue is coated. it is usually due to an overgrowth of little structures called papillae. The cauBe of the enlargement is not known, A smooth tongue is due to wasting of the papillae. It is probably the commonest abnor- mality of the tongue. It occurs in certain types of anemia or lessen- ing of the coloring in the blood. It is also present in toxic goitre, in heart failure, and after pneu- monia, In one type of anemia in which smoothness of the tongue occurs, there is a lessening of the color- ing in the blood together with a lack of acid in the stomach. This condition is known as hypochro- mic anemia, The condition of the tongue rapidly improves when the patient is given some iron-con- taining preparation in the proper amount. In pernicious anemia also, the tongue is smooth 4nd the condi- tion 18 overcome by giving liver extract. : Deeply Furrowed The tongue may be deeply fur- rowed, This occurs in normal per- sons. Oftentimes after the tongue has been smooth and the condit- fon is overcome by growth of the wasted lining membrane, the ton- gue develops a bumpy appearance. This also is not abnormal, and causes no difficulties, Many persons become worried because the tongue is coated. As I have stated above, in most in- stances this is no cause for con- cern, However, in som . cases, it may be an indication of some in- fection of the nose or throat, some digestive disorder or perhaps a gallbladder disturbance. The pyh- sician will determine whether or not it is any cause for alarm, Chatham Hospitals Lack Spring Classes Chatham, Jan, 19.--For the first time in the history of the nurses training school of the Public Gen- era] Hospital, there are not suffici- ent candidates to form a nursing spring training class, according to Miss Priscilla Campbell, R.N., hos- pital administrator. There are few applicants for the school at St. Joseph's Hospital, and it is not expected a class will be formed unti; fall, A campaign will open hére Mon- day in an effort to get young wom- en to enter the nursing profession and offset the general shortage. Czechoslovaks Find Men Here Polished Toronto, Jan. 20--(CP)--Savatava Tichachova and Maria Dolkosova, Czechoslovak wothen lawyers on a visit to Toronto, said today they like Canadian men because they are more polished than those from the United States. Moreover they are not "vlks"--pronounced vuluk and Czech for wolf. The two European Portias wh have been studying in Cleveland like Canadian girls too. They "are wel] fed and very attractive."
