et by taking a step to right, bringing the feet
about eighteen inches apart.

[Illustration: WEAVE--Common fault of not keeping shoulders and arms in
line.]

Weave: Turn the body at the hips while keeping the arms horizontally
extended and bending the right knee slightly. Bring the right hand down
to the ground midway between the feet and let the left arm go up,
keeping its horizontal position from the body, the spine doing the
turning. Hold this position five seconds; then up to "Cross" position
and turn the body the reverse way, bending left knee and bringing left
hand to ground. Hold five seconds, then up. Repeat five times for each
hand. (See Fig. 14, Chapter XIII.)

Curl: From "Cross" position, clench the fists and bring arms in slowly
to the side and up into the armpits, at the same time bending the body
and head backward (Fig. 15). The fists should be clenched and the wrists
bent, bring the hands in toward the chest, the elbows out, and inhaling.
(See Fig. 9, Chapter XII.)

[Illustration: FIG. 15.--"CURL" POSITION. EXCELLENT DEMONSTRATION EXCEPT
THAT THE ELBOWS SHOULD BE THROWN BACK]

Forward: From the above position, gradually bring the body up to an
erect position, extending the hands to a "Reach" position, and slowly
bend the body forward at the hips, exhaling at the same time, and
letting the hands go back past the hips and as high behind the back as
possible, keeping the head up and the eyes looking directly forward, not
down. Go down about to the level of the wrist, then back to "Cross"
position again, and repeat this backward and forward movement five
times.

No. 4. Attention! (Cross-Crawl!) Assume the "Cross" position.

Crawl: While still keeping the neck back, the chin, and the chest
arched, slowly lift the right hand and arm until it points directly
upward, then curl in right arm over the head, at the same time dropping
the left shoulder and sliding the left hand and arm down along the side
of the left leg until the fingers reach directly to the knee, or as far
as comfortable. Now come back from this position. (See Figs. 7 and 8,
Chapter XII.) "Cross" once more and raise the other arm in similar
fashion. Repeat this five times on each side.

No. 5. Attention! (Cross-Crouch!)

Crouch: Assume the "Cross" position of the arms and "Stride" stand, feet
about eighteen inches apart. Now, keeping the head up and the neck back
and back straight, bend the knees and come down slowly, not too far
