Wild ducks winged against it down to the riv- er. the wind at their backs. At breakfast by the kitchen-window which overlooks the mill and pond. we looked for our friend of the springtimwlhe leggy heron to come in above the evergreens which mark the river's windings, to fish. We mentioned this to Jam- es. "There'il be gullsr first. Ellen- remember?" he gid. It is pleasant to ave one's meals by a window-or in summery days where an open door reveals vistas of countryside. There are such en- trancing scenes without: of field and tree. of road and river. of bay and harbour. of farmstead and village and space of valley and hill. Yes. the River -gulls" James said. "But we shan't see them un- til the ice is all gone from the stream and pond. Then they'll be around.” Today with its snow- spread fields was a day to look ahead to that time-and beyond it to the seedtime - to a day bath- ed in sunlight, caressed by a breath of light wind and all new and fresh and clean with every loveliness of season. We could fan- cy it as we mixed a pan of rolls after a recipe of Jeanie's to be I change of bread for us. That would be a' day. we thought, to coax "the past that is Gypsy" in us. to forsake every confining wall and follow some open road. We should carry James' supper The Gypsy Life Is The Life For Me-In Spring! to him in some far field where he sowed. The children would come with us. delighted with the prospect of the trip. Along spring-' ribs we should o, up the rise of arm-lane and ack along the fields: up the woods' road. decor- ated beautifully with gold-green ferns and shy woods' fiowenlngs. gay too with birdsong. Back we should go to catch sight of James and the old mare intent on the seeding. And James would wave and stop at a headland as we drew near. And say. "Now. Ellen you shouldn't have. . . though I was going to try to finish this piece before I came home to support And I am beginning to feel a lit- tle hungry as it is. "And his pleas- ed smile would be our reward for any toil. Not that we should ex- pect or need it-not really. with rewards at every step of the way. And then reins dropped as we have seen them so often before. he would come to join us in some sweet nook of place where we spread the maal-the refreshing tea and vlsnds. humble fare per- hsps but. seasoned by the out of doors. tasteful and good . . .And robins should be our company and flecked field-sparrows busy with items of their building.

KEEP IN TRIM As Well As By IDA JEAN KAIN Enthusiasm is an essential part of successful leduclng. To sustain enthusiasm. it is important to know you are on the right track and that your goal is attainable. so here are the answers to fre- quently asked questions: "Would like to know if a woman of 45 who has reached the meno- pause can reduce as easily as a young woman on the some num- ber of calories. say 1200 daily'."' There is nothing physiological in the change of life that makes re- ducing more difficult. When weight is alned at this time the cause is ikely to be boredom. However. with each passing de- cade. nature uses 6 per cent fewer calories. Therefore it is not as easy to reduce in middle age as It is in the younger years. Solu- lion: re-educate food habits. shift- ing to less fattening fare and be content to lose at the modest rate of one pound a week on 1200 cal- ories d . THE ONLY WAY "I am normal weight but have bulging inches. Can I take inches off certain spots with exercise alone?" Yes. exercise Is the only way to improve your figure.

A slant board helps to restore the vital organs to their normal position and for that standpoint is elpiul. About machines - any- thing that stimulates circulation is all to the good. Then too, ma- chines do not become bored. While no machine can help reduce weight unless calories are out. such exercise improves measure- rnenta. "At certain periods of the month I cannot lose even though I diet stri'cI:lt1lJy. Why?" NA IIAL OCCURRENCE It is a commoa observation that women gain from two to three pounds during the menstruation period. due to the tendency at this time to retain water. On a diet, this gluld retention prevents the of weight that's ac- tually being lost. "How long does it take for ex- cess calories to show on the scales?
