PAGE 16 URGES WETS JO PRyBE WISDOM OF DRY CHANGE Bush Speaks at W. C. T. U. Prohibition Birthday Service. "Enemies of prohibition must prove their arguments for repeal or modification of the Volstead act by shoving that repeal or modification is an economically sound pro cedure." This was the keynote of an ad dress by Lieutenant Governor Edgar D. Bush at services at the Chi Ist Episcopal church at noon today, sponsored by the Central union, W. C. T. U., in observance of the tenth anniversary of the prohibition amendment. "They must show that the liquor traffic and saloons are a better in vestment than prohibition before they can hope to be successful in obtaining a repeal or modification of the existing dry laws,” Bash said. Colonel A. J. Dougherty, chief of staff of the Eighty-fourth division, officers' reserve, said, "The trouble today in America is that so many of as are willing to obey the law, provided we can select the laws we are to obey.” Colonel Dougherty cited numer ous Instances in his army life in support of his contending that soldiers benefited by restrictions against liquor. Dr. Orien W. Fifer, superintend ent of the Indianapolis district of the Methodist Episcopal church, also spoke. Mrs. W. W. Reedy, presi dent of the union, presided.

Today Jsc ! Auer, noted physical culturlst. In the fourth ot a series of articles on ‘‘Round ing the 1930 Curves." which he Is writ ing for The Times and h'EA Service, de scribes an exercise that will help you to attain added grace. BY JAC AVER Written for NF.A Service Graceful contours, the kind of curves that the 1930 woman wants, depends upon two things. First, upon just the right amount of flesh. Second, upon perfect mas | cular co-ordination which comes I from having every part of the body supple and well-exercised. You can be reduced by mechani i cal methods. But unless you limber up your body, the result will not be pleasing. Moreover, unless you. exercise as you lose weight, your flesh becomes flabby. Therefore, I tell women that if they want to attain grace and the right weight, they must do two | things. They must exercise gradually un til they can stand enough work to make them perspire freely. Second, I they mast do the kind of exercises ■ that limber up their joints, and I stretch their muscles until they be | come pliable and co-ordinated. The exercise I give today is the single exercise there is for a j start toward these goals. It calls ; Into play 600 muscles, with em phasis on the waistline. Arms. | thighs, calves, back, abdomen, shoulders, all enter in. It is done i as follows: Stand with feet slightly apart, breastbone well up, arms out in a straight line with erect shoulders. Swing body easily, twist, and bend forward until the tips of the right fingers sweep the toes of the left shoe. Straighten. Repeat, chang ing arms, with the left fingers touching the right toes. There is a rhythm to this. Take it easily, slowly, and consistently The first morning, try it just a few times. Gradually increase the num ber until you can swing, dip. straighten, swing, dip, straighten from ten to twenty times. You will enjoy the way this stirs the slug gish blood by working all the con tracted knots out of your muscles. Done mornings and nights, it is a big aid to reducing. Next: Abdominal exercise.
