A ROUNDED FIGURE
IS AGAIN THE VOGUE
Proper Eating Will Add the Desired Pounds, But a Care
less Diet May Spoil the Complexion, Miss
Huddleston Warns
BY JOSEPHINE HUDDLESTON
Not since the first chill days of 1923 has the whimsical pendulum of
feminine fancy swung from the extremely slender figure to one of more
ample proportion . . . until the past few months. Now, however, those
who settle fashion in beauty have definitely established the fact that
their recent dictum of "skinny figures must go” has
taken hold of the "female of the species” and at all
fashionable places one new sees a more rounded type
of figure. Delicately rounded arms, chest and
throat are covered with enough flesh to give a love
ly, soft contour; haggard faces arc blooming with
health and vitality; legs have a rounded instead of a
bloom stick appearance ... but waists are slender
and hips arc flat!
Therefore, those of you who have starved your
selves through the trying stages of losing those extra
few pounds, had better right about face and put
them back again. For the sturdy, strong, and pleas
antly plump figure is back and I. with many others,
am glad. Beauty at the cost of health can only be
FVgPDMlMF of s^ort duration because Nature, sooner or later—
r^TTWJ usually sooner—makes us pay the fiddler when we
nUDDLtolUN dance to the wrong tune!
Trying to iron out tiny lines from under the eyes and those that run
from the wings of the nostrils to the corners of the mouth, is a pretty
hard undertaking when one trs fallen heir to these lines through insuf
ficient nourishment or sleep. Refusing the appetite however, is now a
thing of the past and the womans
in search of feminine loveliness eats i
to heart's content.
Eating the proper foods for both
health and beauty is somewhat of
an art, for what may cause all sorts
ob beauty-destroying eruptions on
one skin, may prove absolutely
i harmless to another. I. therefore,
ask you to let your conscience be
your guide, and if rich foods must
be included in your diet to put on
those much needed pounds, choose
1 only those foods which will not de
stroy the clear loveliness of your
skin.
Drinking one or two quarts of
; rich milk each day will do wonders
j towards building flesh. The use of
j olive oil or butter for cooking in
1 place of other grease also is ef
fectual. Olive oil is one of the best
and most effective builders wc have,
so if the throat or any other part
of the body appears undernourished,
simply massage warm olive oil gen
erously over the skin each day.
After two or three weeks of such
treatment a slight change will be
seen. Continued for two monts,
these treatments will, indeed, prove
beneficial.
I • ant to say to the extremely
thin women: Just try’ putting on a
few pounds and notice how much
better you will feel and how greatly
your appearance is improved.
The skin will take on a new love
liness. clothes will appear smarter
the hair will glow with new life and
luster, the texture of the finger
nails will improve and one soon will
. appear years younger.
Flood Danger At
Airport Relieved
All danger of floods at the inter
national airport will be removed be
I fore the beginning of the September
! rains, according to G. W. Roger:.
; city engineer. A complete system
of levees and drain ditches to care
for any reasonable amount of wa
ter will be finished by that time.
Levees on the north, south and
southeast side, to prevent flood
water from surrounding territory
draining onto the field during heavy
rains constitute the most important
part of the protection, while ditches
1 to carry off water falling on the
field are also being constructed.
