Correct walking is an ideal ex-

muscular motions accompanying
walking are the opposite-sided swing

A New Health Cult

IF a child does lot know how to
walk at two years he is con
sidered backward, yet most
people 90 through life without hav-
ing accomplished the art-that is
to say, without being able to walk
properly.
This Is the theory Of a number
Of well known hygienists who at
tribute many of the ills to which
human feet are subject to the man
ner IN which these eXtremities
are abused in walking.
a school has just been estab-
hshed at Hampstead, London, to
teach people how to walk The
system taught there is known as
the natural or "straight-foot"
method, or, as It IS sometimes re-
ferred to, the "hat-foct" system, the
latter designation, however, having
no reference, Of course, to the pedal
deformity known as "fat-foot."
This school is conducted by Miss
Annie SponS and IS attended prin-
cipally by children Of from six to
fourteen years Of age, although
there are quite a number OF adults
who, realizing that they do not know
how to walk, are taking the course
TO learn how.
Upon arriving at this novel walk
ing school, the pupils remove their
shoes and stockings. This is abso-
iutely necessary, for most of the
evils Of modern incorrect walking
are believed to be due to the faulty
design Of shoes.
In their bare feet the pupils are
then taken through a series Of eyer
eises devised to correct the bad
walking habits into which they have
fallen
Miss Spong believes that the
proper way to walk is to utilize tie
whole sole Of the foot, that IS to
keep the sole absolutely STRAIGHT
That she believes, is the wav na-
ture intended US to walk. and any
other method puts too much strain
upon the ligaments and tendons
supporting the arch Of the foot
By far the greater support of the
body is intended to originate AT the
foot Of vertical line dropped 10 or
rather raised from, the heel. and tba
remainder Of the human foot which
forms the supportin- arch has tba
junction OF q flying buttress. whose
junction IS manifestly SUBSIDIARY
save in positions Of relaxation or
laI'gqe- Through the use Of shoes

a factor Of the foot which makes Tor
noise. elasticity and activity and dis
ragards a mechanical device which
nature has placed at our service, but
which the prehistoric genius who
first gave shape to our shoes ror
some reason or other completely
disregarded-
While Miss Spong believes that
barefooted walking is the idear
method. she realizes that present
dav conventions make this imprac-
ticabIe but she insists that her pu-
nils shall follow the straight-foot
idea ont of school as well as In
school BY wearing heelless shoes, or
rather. shoes whose heels are no
deeper than the soles.
In connection with the straight
toot idea, Miss Spong's pupils are
+oTght how to swing their arms
gracefully in walking. This swing
t. of the arms was intended BY
nofrre as. an incident to walking and
.11o,,Id not be checked. It is one OF
a. things which makes walking the
hest exercise Of all, giving play, as
a. does. to most of the muscles OF
the body.
At the Gpong school the hat-foot
nethod is employed in dancing as
+Te1T as in walking. Despite the ad-
7nitted grace which the professional
+oe-dancer acquires, the "fat-foot-
ers" contend that natural poise and
elasticity is best attained when the
sole of the foot is kept absolutely
straight.

Soroka and eighty of his friends in
the church, who are out of harmony
with Rev. Balog, are jubilant today
over the outcome of the trial. The
charges Were preferred by George Pal

The trial was given an added inter

two factions. The trouble started
when William Soroka, one of the In
surgenuts in the church. passed be-
fore the altar and attempted to kiss
the Bible.
According to his statement Father
Balog jerked 1t away from him. Sor-
oka walked to the back end of the
church on the way out and asked some
one near him, Did you notice that?''
Some man near him started to swear.
according TO Soroka. another man hit
him in the face. and a third boosted
