The Irene Dunne Site
Hitting the Road Is Short Cut to Beauty
By BETTY CLARKE, Wide World Beauty Editor
If Old Man Winter took a toll from your beauty, don't be discouraged. Kind Mother Nature is one of the best beauty experts. Given a chance, she'll brighten your eyes, restore the bloom to your cheeks and give you that good tired feeling so you fall asleep the minute you hit the bed. Her remedies are free - fresh air and sunshine.
Lovely Irene Dunne shows you how to cooperate. She says you put on your walkies and go for a hike. With shoulders back, step along briskly and breathe deeply to fill your lungs with fresh air.
Limber up
Some time, during your hike, you'd better limber up your muscles. Irene has two ways of doing it. She lies down flat on her back and streched her legs over her head. There's fun in being a kid again, she points out, and with a skipping rope you can rid yourself of that extra poundage that crept up quietly through the winter.

And that's how "to limber up your muscles" looked ...
Obviously "they" caught Irene once again during the production of "Lady In A Jam"; the publicity department really took advantage of Miss Dunne being the first time in her career for a couple of weeks on location. However, thanks for those exceptional photos!
