The result Of the committees inves'

That such children are a public
menace, and should pc the wards Of

proper joint action the gait is fiat
footed and ungainly.
Hold Shoulders Back.

Hold shoulders.
Also remember that unless the
shoulders are well thrown back, and
the chest expanded, a graceful walk
is impossible. To properly distribute
the weight and gain q proper balance
the shoulders must be held in po'
sition, and the upper portion Of the
torso carried slightly forward. This
keeps the spine in q straight line,
which is absolutely essential, and the
gradual lean forward begins at the
hips and not from the waist.
If you experience any difficulty in
placing the foot correctly when walk
ing ankle exercise is necessary. One
Of these is to rest the weight on the
ball Of the foot, then raise the body
on the toes. Continue this exercise
until the ankle muscles become tired,
Another excellent exercise for the
ankles is to cross the feet, raising
one entirely from the floor. Now
twist the ankle forward, back and
around so that the ankle joint moves
freely. Do not wear shoes when ex'
erclsing the ankles.
Points on Speaking.
To remedy any vocal defects yon
must first learn to relax the muscles
of your throat. Soft, musical tones
are impossible when the jaws arc set
and the throat contracted. Most
speaking voices are nasal and throaty
and to make the tones pleasing to the
ear it is necessary to lower the pitc.
and soften the tone.
Always try to keep the muscles OF
the throat free and the vocal cords
flexible. Practice talking and reading
aloud, in the privacy of your own

For Black Shoes.

The best way to keep black shoes
from looking worn, and also from
breaking. is to dip a small flannel
rag in olive oil and rub it into the
leather If it needs further rubbing
or wiping, take a fresh dry flannel
rag and go over it. This method,
says Hollands, keeps the footwear
black without polishing It, and pro
vtdcs a dull finish.

CLUB NOTES

While it is generally conceded that Women's clubs have a great in- fiuencc in the community. the parent teacher associations are said to have more direct interest in the home and in the school. When a woman has not the time nor the desire to be- long to club she will naturally turn to that association, the primary purpose of which is to work for the best interests of her child. In the past few years the number of circles has multiplied rapidly. This alone demonstrates the need of such societies. Of the growth. aims and accomplishments of parent teacher or ganizations, Mrs. Charles R. Howe tells this morning. In an article she has written exclusively for The Republican Mrs. Howe has explained these things which hold first place to those who recognize the home and the school influence on young America Mrs Howe is a member of the Adams Parent Teacher asso- clation. active and prominent in it's work and q valuable co-worker of the Congress of Mothers, with which il is affiliated.
