How T 0 Keep Well
By DR. HUGE S. CUMMING
Surgeon General, United States Public Health Service
The correct method of walking is
to walk with the toes pointing near-
ly straight ahead and only slightly
out. Correct posture is more like
the military attitude at rest—name-
ly. with heels apart. toes almost
straight forward. the sides of the
lee tapproximatbly opposite sides of
a square. This attitude gives sta-
bility and poise and insures a proper
distribution of the weight of the
body upon the structures of the feet.
This straight forward direction of
the feet. with heels apart. is recom-
mended as a corrective for fautly
posture. '
Those who stand a great deal
should avoid distorted positions. The
weight of the body should not rest
on the sides of-the feet nor on one
foot with the body sagging to one
side. The body weight should be

feet. the sufferer should seek the
advice of an orthopedic surgeon. is
remember that flat foot is a condi-
tion that should be treated by e. ph-
sician or surgeon and not by a shoe-
maker or a shoe salesman. The of!
dlnary arch supports. supplied by
shoemakers do not cure flat feet.
shoes for flat feet should have a
straight internal edge. All measures
employed for the correction of flat
feet should be supplemented by
proper exercise and the correction of
faulty positions of the feet while
walking. '
If you too out. unless the toeing
out is corrected by exercises and the
proper shoe, an arch support may
do you more harm than good.
To detect weak feet is compara-
tively easy. Do your ankles bend
inward when standing or walking?
Are you disposed to walk on the
inner side of the feet as shown by
the uneven wearing of the shoes?

The birth of the Himalayan
Mountains was responsible for the
birth of the human race. This is the
theory suggested by Dr. Art-luv
Smith Woodward. one of Great Bri-
tain's foremost anthropologists.
Dr. Woodward bases his opinion
upon- the fact that just before man
made his appearance upon earm.
the forests of northern India were
inhabited by a race of great apes.
At this time the Himalyan Moun-
tains did not exist.
The time of which Dr. Woodward
speaks is known to the geologists as
the Miocene era. That was approx-
imately 100.000 years ago.
Then came one of nature's great
upheavals. The crust of the earth
was shrinking.
Some think the continents of the
old‘world were pushed against each
other. ‘
The result was that the surface of
the earth was wrinkled up into
great folds—the Himalayan moun-
talus. _
To the north of the mountains,
Dr. Woodward believes. the tem-
perature was suddenly lowered as a
result of the formation of the moon. i

The trees died. Large numbers of
the apes found themselves in this
territory north of the. mountsihs’

Matter. as the modern physicist
believes. is constructed of funda-
mental particles called protons and
electrons which are in reality units
of positive and negative electricity.
The forces with which these two-
dlffsl'ent units attract each other is
enormous.
Professor W. F. G. Swann of
Yale University has been calculat-
lns' these forces.
His calculations show that if all
the protons in a cubic inch of solid
matter could be separated out into
one pile and all the electrons could
be similarly segregated. that the
force of attraction between the two
piles. providing they were placed
one inch apart. would be 86 times
