Monday, Jan. 22, several hundred women who had entered The Eve- ning World's “Porfect Figure Con- test” began a twelve weeks’ course of daily dict and exercise designed to rebuild their figures to propor- tions considered “perfect” for their | height—apd to conform their weight | to corresponding standards. One hundred dollars in awards was of- fered by The Evening World to the @iz women who, at the end of twelve | ‘weeks, should achieve the greatest success in their endeavor. The dict and exercise lessons, published daily, | ‘were arranged by Miss Pauline Fur- | Jong, The Evening World's physical | culture expert. ‘The last lesson in the course was Published Saturday, April 14 In Weighing and measuring the contes- tants last woek to determine the award ‘winners, it was discovered that no less | than sixty-two women had accom- Plished marked results in either do- velopment or reduction of their fig- ures, one having decreased her weight thirty-one pounds. And every one of these Women, at the start of the con- test, had weighed fifteen or more | pounds more or less than they should have for their height. Belecting the six award winners was @ diMcult task. A “point” system was Adopted. Each pound over or under the weight scientifically calculated | “perfect” for cach woman's height, and each inch “out of the way” in each measurement, was counted one “debit” point. Where weight or mens- urement was correct, one “credit” Point was allowed to be deducted from the “debits.” By this arrangement the fewer total debit points the nearer the contestant approached perfect weight and measurements. 6 THE AWARD WINNERS, | In keoping with the pledge not to! the names of the six award winne: First Award Winner.
