Phone 983-5301 Established in 1938 by R. A. Forrester Roy C. Forrester - Editor and PublLsher FIRST JOB OVERRATED The inmportance «f the fflxst job tends to be overrated, says the federal health departinent publication, "Unlder- standing the Young Adut" , '1 TI the choice has been a poor one, other opport.rnities wilf0-now. Tlhe important thing la to try to do well wliat- eyt the cli.ice. At this age, it's the attitude and enthusiat toward the job that counts more thas it being the ,,,let" job, says the publication.l Experience, interest and aptitude make for success. Situations and people change, but work habits - like con- .c(entiousness, dependability and thorougihness - when learned early, will prove invaluable later on. ALTER HOURGLASS FIGURE! Are you getting an hourglass figure with all c sand àn the bottoLý3m? Is thec floor getting farther away when vou bend over to ouch your toes? Have you notieed that you avoid stairs, ýor pull yourse]f up them by the handrail? Mi so. you can change this situation with a f ew simple daily exer- cises, that eau be idoue anywhere, according to the latest advice. Par too many «of us are in poor shape because phys- ical fitness for the masses is slipping away more every year. Kuiowhow lias taken the physical labor out «f manufactur- iug jobs. We ridle power nioWers instead of pushing the bandi mower. Our (homes are electric; computer, typewrîters and business machines work with the slightest touch. Even in niany sports we have taken the exeroise away. We have ,golt carts to eliminate walking or carryiuig, 'and ski lifts to ,ake us o the top «f the giope. Jnstead of rowiug, we use motorboats. We are week- end -athtletes or maybe only TV sports watehers. - Yet we ail need and shouid have daily exercise. The body reimains strong only il it is used. Those parts involved- uni our usuiai regimen remain in reasonably good oue; those parts we do't use get weakcr. lihe only answerseems to be to make exercise part of> ,ur daily activitiies, hke.brushing your teeth and conibiug 1;;Gur hair every .morning,,note the Port Arthur News4)hr'on- 1Icle. Aud white any exercise prograin should have a'certain ainount of vigorous activity, such as running or jogging, there are other calmer yet beneficial exercises. that eau be donc ahnost anyw!here'- sittiug at your office dkek, working arouud the house, walking on the street.
