TONI lurn out Your Toes
Or You'll! Get Flat Feet;
High Heels No Guarantee

r. g I'd. d
3s Do you turn your toes out farther
than necessary when you walk? A
good many people do, asserts an ex-
pert, and there are two reasons why
! the practice is q bad one-for one
thing, 1t gives an awkward and affect
ed gait, which may even be mincing
gait # the habit is very pronounced;
i for another thing, it IS apt to produce
Aatfoot. that unsightly and often pain
full disability.
One hears a good deal about fiat
foot these days, and it Is shocking
how many otherwise able and efficient
candidates for the army have to be
turned down by physical examiners
because of this disability-flatfoot. So
much attention is being paid to the
welfare of the foot now that fatfoot
is likely to be far less prevalent In
the next generation, but those who
have been fortunate enough to escape
the trouble so far in this generation
should be very careful not to let it
come upon them.
The common causes Of f1atfOOt are
improper shoes and faulty ways Of
walking or standing. Flatfoot will not
be prevented, as many women seem to
fancy, by the continuous wearing Of,
high heels. There are people who
wear healless tennis shoes all summer
long without injury to the arch of the
foot. 1t all depends on the way one
steps. Barefoot people for the most
part walk with the toes pointing
straight forward-if anything a tri1e
inward. The Indian always walks In
this way; Soft you will note-does
the barefoot lad in the country. The
toes In this method of walking get
firm grip on the ground and help to
propel the body forward.
To avoid ,fatfoot wear supple, roomy
shoes and take care not to toe out ex"
cessively. Make all the toes do their
work in propelling the body forward.

Profuse Decorations.
The city Is profusely decorated
with the flags of the allies, and the
buildings on the streets through
which the presidential party will pass
tomorrow are aflame with the red,
white and blue.
Fair weather is promised tomorrow
by the forecaster.
The newspapers did not publish to-
day, but long editorials of greetings
have already been printed and more
are promised tomorrow.
The Christmas hustle probably will
be forgotten sooner this year than
ever before in the rush of excitement
attending the coming of the distin-
guished visitor.
Ovation Awaits.
One of the biggest crowds London
has ever seen--a multitude reaching
into millions--wll greet President
Wilson on his arrival.
There will be a double element to
contribute to the public interest-the
president of the United States--and
the public appearance of King George
and Queen Mary.
The other English towns which the
president will visit are making SIM

president and Mrs. Wilson will at

Freedom Of City.
A similar state of affairs prevails
at Manchester, where the freedom OF
the city will be conferred upon Mr..
Wilson on Monday. Hundreds OF
thousands of persons living in the
district adjoining Manchester are
preparing to take part in the cere-

Manchester arises from the fact that
the town hall will not hold all the

WIRELESS CONTROL
CENTER OF INTEREST
NAVY DEPARTMENT MAY
BE DEEMED MONOPOLY.
House Committee Favors Alb
solute Control of Life
Saving Service.

Washington, Dec. 25.-That the
navy department will be denied a
monopoly of the country's wireless
telegraph system was today pre-
dicted, following canvass OF the
house merchant marine committee py
one of its members.
At the same time II was SAID tnat
the committee favored giving tho
navy control of the life saving serV-
ice between stations on shore ana
ships at sea, leaving transoceanic
commercial service between high-.
powered stations in this country ana
abroad in the hands of private inter-
ests.
Should congress ratify such pro-
gram, there will he no additional pur-
chase of stations made by the gov
ernment. as the ship-to-s shore serV-
ice was bought outright from private
companies by the navy department
while 1t was under government con-
troll during the war. IL VIII return
to the Marconi Wireless Company OF
America all its high-power stations
which are important in the round
the-world" wireless chain of the
Marconi interests, according to teS-
tmony of Marconi officials at the
committee hearings.
According to testimony or wireless
men before the committee, 1t will be
satisfactory with wireless interests II
the ship to shore service be placed
exclusively in the hands Of the navy
department. Several of the experts
asserted that this service properly
belonged to the naval forces, but
strenuously objected to their taking
over the commercial stations.
Naval experts hold that neither n
private company nor the government
could make success of wireless te-
legraphy unless one or the other mo-
nopolizes the whole radio field, be-
cause of the element of interference
between stations.
However. committeeman are in
clined. 1t was said, to accept the tes-
timony OF Marconi officials that in
reference can be satisfactorily elm
mated by regulation until the diff
Guilty be solved by science. It was
said by Marconi men that several
inventions tending to remove this
difficulty will soon be perfected.
Reports from the hearings have
been sent to the printing Office and
are expected to be off the press in
time for the committee to consider
the bill Immediately after the holl-
DAYS.

LENINE AND TROTZKY
YET STRONG In RUSSIA
BOLSHEVISM THREATENS
NEW" POLAND.
Next Week Will Show How
Far Danger Develops.
Germans Retiring
(London Times Phil. Ledger Cop. Chble.)


Warsaw. Dec 25.--The great dam
ger threatening Poland in her rebirth
is bolshevism. Next week will show
how far that danger develops. Per-
sons recently arriving from Russia
say that Lenine and Trotzky are still
strong in Petrograd and Moscow,
where the reign of terror is still In
full swing. The bolsheviki are send
ing to Poland as emiSsares Jews VINO
adopt Polish names and who are well
supplied with funds with which to
stir up the masses against the capt.
talists. The bolshevik organ in Pc
trograd, called the Tribune and Boil
sheviki Journal. begins a series of
articles with these words: "Shall we
transfer our work to Warsaw? That
is our immediate aim"
The Germans facilitate the ingress
of these emissaries to Poland. To
counteract this aim the Poles need
arms and ammunition. Their army
at present is only 10000 strong, which
has to cover a front from the Baltic
to Galicia.
When the armistice was signed,
the Germans had a line in Lithuania,
a territory containing q large Polish
line practically bound
ed by the Dnieper and Dvina. The
general in command of these forces
was. Hoffman. a German signatory to
the Brest treaty. His army is esti-
mated at from 100000 to 100000 For
six weeks he has been gradually re-
firing to Germany along two main
lines: First, that of Kovel- Brest-
Bielystok into East Prussia; second,
along various routes converging on
Wilma, thence to kovno, Prussia. Be-
fore the retirement began. the Ger
mans were thus on a $50 to 300-m mile
line. AS the Germans retire the boil
with German arms in their
hands, advance and sack towns and
numbering at will. The
Poles are their chief victims. There
have been cases where the Germans
have taken part in these outrages.
