'Wobbies' Work To Offset
WCTU's Anti-Liquor Drive
New York (U.R Temperance
leaders in America are making
headway with a sort of "creeping
prohibition" local option elec1
tions that dry up the country
side bit by bit but the liquor
people say they . aren't worried.
For one thing, the ladies of
the WCTTJ have the "Wobbies"
to contend with now.
Ladies Favor Drinking
The Wobbies are ladies, too,
but they are in favor of drink
ing. In moderation, of course.
Their organization TheWo
men's Association of Allied Bev
erage Industries, Inc., or WAABI
for short is the female corps
of the liquor industry's public
relations force. '.
The "Wobbies are pledged to
defend the reputation of the liq
uor industry and to resist those
"dangerous outside forces" that
would destroy it. :
A Wobbie gots to PTA meet
ings and the like, ready to stick
up for legalized liquor if the
girls get to talking on the sub
ject. She may even give a speech.
Temperance workers say they
detect a rising public sentiment
against the use of alcohol. They
believe publicity given to the
problems of alcoholism and juve
nile delinquency is working in
their favor.' ,
WCTTJ Gaining Memberships
The Woman's Christian Tem
perance Union has been gaining
in membership. It now claims
400,000 members in its 10,000
state and local unions.
Against this the Wobbies are
pretty outnumbered. They list
3500 members in 42 chapters.
Most Wobbies are connected
with some phase of the alcoholic
beverage' industry through then
jobs or their husbands.
As We Live
No One Should Despair
About Physical Features
No one is physically perfect.
Everyone must learn to live
with certain features he or she
does not like.
; (Q) "I am very
upset about
my face. I n
fact, it upsets
me so much
that I do not
like to go , out
socially. I am
22 years old,
weigh 128
3 1
Dr. Huilock
am 5 feet, 3 inches tall. My face
is completely round, just like a
moon, and I have a double chin.
Otherwise, I am not heavy. All
the weight seems to be in 'my
face and chin. Is there any way
to change the shape of a face?"
E.H.
(A) There is no known way to
change the bone structure of the
face because that is fully devel
oped by the middle teens. How
ever, there are several things
you can do and these should
solve or partially solve your
problem for you.
First of all, go to your doctor
and discuss with him the matter
of your weight. As- people's
weight varies according to their
bone structure, it would be im
possible to say that you are
"overweight" without a physi
cal check-up. You may not be
"heavy" but you are certainly
not thin. - ,
The doctor can recommend
By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D.
a reducing diet that will help
you to lose weight but will not
impair your health. He can also
suggest exercises to tighten the
muscles of your , chin ; and the
lower. part of your face. You are
much too young to have a dou
ble chin or even sagging mus
cles. - ,
Have Hair Styled
Then, go to a beauty special
ist and have him style your hair
to minimize , the roundness of
your face. You will be amazed
to see how -the whole shape of
your face seems-to change with
different hair styles. You may
not be able to wear your hair
in the prevailing fashion or like
your friends do, but I am cer
tain that any specialist can. find
a style to make your face seem
longer. -
If you keep strictly to your
diet and do your exercises re
gularly, you will soon discover
that your face itself is. thinner.
Your double chin. will disappear
and, when you tighten the neck
muscles, your neck will look
thinner and longer. . This, too,
will make your face appear less
moon-like. '
