 by poor rating from the stardpoin'

 lack an excellent mechanical contro of their bodies Only 10 per cent. o, the men examined could swim. ] Very few cases of poor teeth were noted and there were very i few cases of impairment of vision Only 37 persons were found to wea' glasses and 43.6 per cent. had hat their tonsi's removed The report on bodily mechanics which included care of the feet pos l ture both sitting and standing ant
