Physical Fitness Of
Mother Is Key
To Family Health
Keeping in shape should be
of chief concern to American
women not only for the sake
of their own health and wellbeing,
but, just as important,
for the health and well-being
of their families ? both present
and future.
The mother who places
little or no value on exercise
and physical fitness for herself,
may well consider it unimportant
for her family.
Whether or not her children
will be interested and get sufficient
physical exercise will
depend on her to a great extent
since, as psychologists
have pointed out, she is the
primary teacher from whom
her children acquire their
values and often their first
understanding of cultural
heritage.
Because of this, it is evident
that appeals for physical
fitness from such high offices
as that of the President
of the United States are not
aimed solely at American

males, but also at American
women who are or will one
day be wives and mothers.
Actuarial studies show that
the woman of today starts
with a better foundation for
being physically fit than her
counterpart of three or four
decades ago. Women are, on
the average, five pounds
lighter during their 20's, according
to the Institute of
Life Insurance, and it is not
until their mid-30's that they
start putting on excess
weight.
But, even with this advantage,
it's a perplexing fact
that women of today will
exist on lettuce leaves, cream
cheese and miracle diets in
order to lose a few pounds
or inches. Nothing seems to
be too great a sacrifice for a
better figure ? except exercise.
Although dieting is a step
in the right direction, medical
experts agree that it is
not the complete answer; it
should be balanced with a
systematic and regulated
physical exercise program.

THE CLOTHMAKER
grams throughout our schools
are being revived in response
to the appeals for physical
fitness, but nearly all athletics
and school athletic facilities
are still tailored to the
needs of male participants.
This is not to say that
facilities for exercise or varsity
sports are not available
to women, but that women
are generally not encourage
to use them. More often than
not, health authorities observe,
they are likely to engage
in activities requiring a
minimum of physical exertion
and tend to overemphasize
spectator watch, do nothing
for the physical men,
even those who dabbled in
anything more strenous than
bowling or golf, and these
only occasionally.
And, once their formal edu
cation is completed; the majority
of women, even those
who dabbled in these activities
in school, give them up
completely and seldom get
involved in anything more
strenuous than bowling or
golf and only occasionally.
The popular opinion seems
to be that dieting will take
the place of exercise for
women and that keeping
their weight in control is supposed
to insure them a good
figure and physical fitness.
But the practice of dieting
does not insure either one.
In many cases, dieting will
eliminate excess weight but
needs to be accompanied by
a well-planned and continu

firm and tone the muscles of
the body. Medical experts
agree that such a program
will do much to help improve
physical and mental well-being
as well as help maintain a
good figure, but should not
be entered into without first
consulting y o u r physician
since it must be adapted to
age, maturitv and capacity of
the individual.
