Have you learned the new war walk 2
II is the new parellel step, four
square standing position now being
urged and taught by physical culture
experts and army physicians as a cure
for American foot troubles.
! | call it the war walk because IL is
a distinct reform in our national walk
ing habits and 1t grows directly out
of the war because ii is designed to
correct national foot defects discovered
by army inspectors among the draft
army men.
But twenty per cent Of the men in
the new draft army had absolutely
sound feet.
The great majority wore shoes from
one to two sizes too small
Most Of them had corns, hunions or
lngrowing toe-nails, and sometimes all
three, which untitled them for long
marches and prolonged drilling.
To restore the men 10 foot efficiency
required slight surgical treatments, new
carefully fltted shoes and definite pre-
scribed foot exercises TO correct the de-
fects.
The condition in the draft army is the
same as that existing in civilian life.
Few Of us can boast that we never
have any trouble with our feet.
Even those who have no corns, cal
louses or bunions still suffer with un-
necessary fatigue and nervousness if /
required to walk or stand for long pc
riods.

every man and woman is decreased be- |

New Walk AboHshes Foot Fatigue--Here's How

I but side by side. Walking in one
straight line causes an undesirable
waddle. Never "toe out" Parents are
at fault by instructing the child to ''toe
out" instead OF permitting him to walk
normally with feet parallel or even
"toeing in" Pigeon-toed children need
no longer be considered deformed or
unfortunate. They are indeed fortu-
nate and probably will escape the pain
in salf, knee and hip which many who
toe out" suffer.
By standing erect with head high,
chin in, weight equally divided over
the foot arches, looking everyone
up, fears and doubts are dispelled and
a general feeling Of well-being is at
tanned. Drop a plumb line from the
lower tip Of the ear and the shoulder,
knee, hip and ankle will be in line If the
standing posture is correct; the abdo-
men will be drawn in and the chest
prominent.
Many persons find it difficult TO stand
or walk properly because Of weak feet.
Several causes may contribute TO such
a condition. Fashionable footwear is
one cause. Stockings are often too
short and too narrow; heels too hikh
and too small, thus pressing the toes
and ball Of the foot forward in the shoe.
Constant standing, particularly in ill
fitting shoes. may be another cause Of
foot troubles.
Tomorrow Miss Strangfeld will tell
THE EVENING JOURNAL readers about
the correct standing position and give
the scientific exercises for strengthen
ing the feet and correcting defects.

BERLIN, July 20 via London.
Night Report-On the battlefield
between the Alsne and the Msrne
fresh attempt by the French to
break through our lines failed with
heavy losses to the enemy.
Day Report-The battle has blazed
up again between the Aisne and the
Marine. There the French have be-
gun their long-expected counter
offensive. By the employment OF eS-
tremely strong squadrons Of tanks
they succeeded at first in penetrat-
ing by surprise into our front in
fantry and artillery lines at isolated
points and in pressing back our line.
Afterwards our line divisions, to-
gether with reserves which had been
held in readiness, frustrated the en-
emy from breaking through.
Toward midday French attacks on
the line southwest from Scissors to
Neuilly and northwest Of Chateau
Thlerry were defeated. In the af-
ternoon very strong partial attacks
Of the enemy on the whole OF the
front OF attack broke down against
our new line. Enemy columns,
which were endeavoring TO reach
the battlefield, were the detectives
OF our successful battleplanes.
Our chasing planes shot down
thirty-two enemy airplanes.
On the front south Of the Marne
the French, since their failures OF
July i6-i7, have only directed partial
attacks southeast OF Mareuil, which
were repulsed.
Between the Marne and Rheims
and east of Rheims the fighting ac-
tivlty has been confined TO local op-
erations. Enemy attacks in the Bois
du Roi and on both sides Of Pourcy
broke down.
We have captured prisoners In
successful attacks northwest OF
Troesnes, on the Suippes, and on
both sides OF Perthes. The number
Of prisoners brought in since the
18th exceeds 10000.

Administrator Garfield will not ap-

after ne had conferred with off,

He will, however. put a stop 20 the

workers that they had signed the

ment. under which they agreed that
wages should not be increased dur
ing the war. and is said to have told
them they could not justify any de-
mand for increased wages on the
ground that the operators were paw
ing bonuses.

toward stopping bonuses was 20 or
