Some OF the scientists have lately been
considering the question whether the
swinging of our arms Is to help us In
walking or running or Is habit inherited
from our supposedly four-footed ances-
tors. The conclusion is against the last
named theory. The movements OF tne
legs tend to give the body rocking.
rotary motion on vertical axis. and
the arms, each swinging In unison with
the leg on the opposite side, give a con-
trary motion. which has the effect OF bal
