AIN THE DAYS NEWS"

Today is the SEVENTEEN birthday of
Sir William Mackenzie, Scotch Can
adian, who started on his career with
a heritage of poverty and country air
and in time became one of the emf
nent railroad builders and capitalists
of the Dominion. In all large bust
pess ventures Sir William has been
associated with Sir Donald Mann. AS
boys the two grew up together in On
tario. AS bill" and Dan" they went
west together in early manhood to
seek their fortunes. Arriving in Man.
itoba, Mackenzie worked at his trade
as a carpenter and Mann found en-
ployment as wood chopper. Later
they entered into the contracting
business and soon the firm of Mac
kenzie and Mann became known
throughout the western provinces.
They started in a small way as rail-
road builders in Manitoba and met
with such success that in q few years
they had a system extending across
the continent, together with steam
ship lines on both oceans.

High Heels and LOWSiflkS

able, long-toed, narrow-soled, high
heeled shoe tries to walk with her
foot touching at only two points in
stead of three.
You have seen three-legged milk
ing stool. You know how firmly it
sits on the floor and supports you.
Suppose you cut off one of the legs:
do you think you could sit on it COM
fortably?
3 No woman ever walks comfortably
or easily or safely the first time she
tries to walk around with her heels
two or three inches above her toes.
1t is only because she persists in
practice that she ever gets so she can
walk with any comfort, and that COM
fort is at the cost of abnormal physic-
al changes which are the direct cause
of great variety of troubles.
What would you think of man who
put shoes on a horse with pieces of
iron attached that made the back part
of the horses foot two inches higher
than the front?
Do you think that horse would be
able to pull any load or travel very
fast without falling down, or be able
even to stand still without a good
deal of discomfort?
The high-heeled shoe is a combina-
ton relic of the barbarism of China
and the silly vanity of French King
1t is one of the results of the prac-
tice of foot binding that was for cen.
turtles one of the most hideous and
painful of human customs.
The Chinese woman with the foot
of a child could not walk about in
rainy weather without wetting the
bandages which confined her feet.
10 protect them a shoe on stills
was devised.
At the toe and the heel were fast
ened high blocks of wood, and these
blocks kept her feet clear, of the mud
and water.
There was French ruler-a little
understood, unimpressive man who
wanted to be tall and kingly in ap-
pearance, so he took the idea of the
Chinese rainy-day sandal, and, as the
two blocks made it perfectly evident
that he was trying to make himself
taller, he eliminated the front one,
and with his heels high in the air

They Are Both Bad for Women Who
Use Them
CA Washington Times EditoriaD


CA Washington Times EditoriaD
There are two things responsible
for more pain and distress for Ameri-
can women than all other causes put
together.
They are HIGH HEELS and Low
SINKS.
Either of these subjects is sufficient
for an editorial, but since medical
men are just at present calling atten-
ton to the evil of high heels we will
talk about them today and about the
evil of the low kitchen sink some 9th
er time.
In the meantime, the men who read
this ought to see today that the sinks
in their kitchens are made the right
height to work at with comfort.
According to the Government sta
tistics, more than 81 percent of the
men examined for army service suf-
fered from some form of foot trouble.
Many of them were so seriously af-
fected that they were refused for SER
vice.
The best authorities estimated that
more than 80 per cent Of American
women suffer from troubles directly
attributable to high heels.
The American woman is generally
supposed to be particularly subject to
nervous disorders
Nervousness is the national disease
The very great majority of nervous
troubles is directly attributable to the
efforts of women to balance them
selves nine-tenths of the time that
they are walking on one heel and one
big toe,
Nine-tenths of the time that we are
walking we carry the weight of our
bodies on one foot.
There is only very small part of
step when both feet bear weight.
Nature intended that when we
stepped pressure should come at
three points-the ball Of the foot back
of the big toe, the portion of the foot
just back of the littlc toe, and at the
heel.
The woman wearing the fashion.
The Lakeland evening telegram. (Lakeland, Fla.) 1911-1922, 1919-10-30
walked around on his toes for. the rest

walked around on his toes for the rest
of his career.
Women who were just as silly and
perhaps as short or shorter than the
King adopted the style, and since
then French heels have been fashion
able, foolish and uncomfortable.
The western adaptation has not
even the virtue of the utility of the
Chinese custom, for 1t does not pro-
tect the foot from the mud and water.
If you want to see some Of the
things that a high-heeled shoe &C
complishes, compare the foot of a
woman who has worn one to the foot
Of baby and see the difference be-
tween the broad, substantial founda-
ton which the little one has to step
on and the bunched-up toes, broken
arch, and generally distorted ar
rangement on which the average
woman get about.
Then you will know why most
women say: Il know I ought to take
exercise, but it just kills me to walk"
The good Lord who made women
did not intend them to be bound up In
iron corsets nor to walk around on
their toes.

TONNES.

The like of this war, with its mix up of flags,
peoples and races, was never before seen and prob
ably will never be seen again in a thousand
years. Consider, for example-one example out
Of thousands the story Of those 600 American
Tomn1ies who recently arrived on the Mauretania,
were released at Camp Mills, and then dropped
into New York happy as kings to "be Yankees
again. after four years of fighting under the
British flag. Not that they regretted or were
disguised; they had nothing but good words for
the British. From British army officers at Camp
Mills each received % days pay and ration ra-
ton money, a ticket for home, and a certificate
from the immigration inspectors. Moreover, each
American Tommy carried in his pocket a personal
greeting from King George and Queen Mary
wishing him g~od-speed to his "home and dear
ones and expressing the thanks~of "a grateful
mother country for his courage, devotion and
splendid service.
Many Americans fighting with the French
or British got themselves transferred to their own
flag, but the war covered too much ground and
our part in it was too short for this to be accom-
plished in all cases. The Mauretania's 600 re-
manned Tommies to the end, representing var
lOus branches of the British army, including the
Highlanders, and all of them after four years &C
curing more or less of a Cockney accent. Some
of them have black faces. New Workers were
stunned to see happy negroes walking about in
the uniform of the Highland regiments, tam O.
shanters, plaid skirts, bare knees and all. The
SpectacleS of this war of wars! Think of one O
these negro Highlanders starting on a coon hunt
with gun and dog in all the glory of his plaid kilt
and bare knees as soon as he gets home! In the
language Of the street, can you beat it?

A JUST COMPLAINT.

Lloyd-George justly says that the Peace Con
ference had to meet and discuss things under
conditions unprecedented in history" and his
complaint is altogether reasonable when, in behalf
of himself and the other statesmen laboring tc
solve difficult problems of conflicting interest, rs
asks: Can not the people wait until we have fin
ished our work instead of always wanting tx
Judge our intentions?' In reply he has been re-
minded of the first of President Wilson's Ia
points promising or demanding "open covenants.
openly arrived att and mo private internationa
understandings" But this could not convict the
conference statesmen for not publishing coven-
ants before they "arrived att them. It did not
mean that copy hunting correspondents and news
agencies would be invited to be present at the
discussions, for that would have been absurd, in
volving confusion worse COMPOUNDED. The guess
ing and threatening correspondents at Paris
are doig too much as it is to confuse the public
mind and embarrass statesmen charged with a
heavy responsibility.
The pledge means no more than that all agree
ments finally arrived at will in due course be an
nounced and that no secret understandings be
tween scheming nations will be left in the back
grounds. If there was no preliminary committee
work in private, no legislation of any sort could
be accomplished without months of rambling
time-devouring talk. The Peace Conference, like
any other body, must discuss before it can report
