Dial 3266 Gain Weight With Cat N aps, Extra Snacks lt < n ! . I I i Cl ; ■i ■ i I f: M : t IDA LUPINO; Upped weight. “Help the woman who is thin to a fault,” one reader writes. “Not nearly all of America’s 65, 000,000 women... are overweight as most people seem to think.” “True,” chimes in Ida Lupino, star of "In Our Times.” “For the first time in years I weigh 115 pounds, and I had to learn to gain weight the hard way—by trial and error.” Here are some “musts” from Ida for putting a little needed padding on your bones, all of which her experience has taught h,er. Get all the sleep you can wangle. In addition to,the night ly quota, take cat naps during th r day. Three nourishing meals daily will nut you on the right track, but vou need light snacks —at mid-morning, mid-afternoon and again at bedtime — of foods that are intended to be fattening. Such things as whole milk, ice cream, chocolate beverages, or a good tea. with sandwiches enrich ed by butter or~ its equivalent. Ida says she takes vitamin sup piements, toe,, because she believes that anything which builds U P health heips you to gain weight. Exercise, except thP mildest kind is not recommend d. Leave that for the heftier girls who need to burn up fat. I 18 Local Plan __ Commercial Students Present Program At : j Griffin High School The..

WRONG WAY: Suffer silently rather than embarrass the woman by asking her if she would mind removing her hat. RIGHT WAY: Ask the woman politely if she would mind taking off ner hat and thank her when ."he does so: (There is no point in trying to spare the feelings of a person so thoughtless of others as to keep on a hat at a play or movie that keeps the person behind her from seeing.)
