Like the child's Joy house built with
blocks, the foot stands when the bal.
ance Is maintained and becomes weak
and wabbly when single block Is
moved sufficiently to disturb the bal.

In correct position the foot carries
the weight Of the body with a wide
margin of strength to spare. Change
the posture and the demand upon this
reserve strength becomes often too
great to be permanently borne. The
foot is then under a strain, It tires,
becomes painful and finally, by Yield.

Body posture directly influences the

posture has direct bearing upon cor.

The old method Of toeing out, as
taught to the recruits OF the army, in
civil war times, was really a position
of weakness.
To utilize its power to best advau.
tage, the walking position OF the foot
should be with little or no outward
pointing OF the toes. In standing a
slight turning out OF the ties is per.
