THE ONE WHO
WON
BY UeL MALLocH


1.-TWO there were upon a quest:
Il One went east, and one went west
One was rich, and one was poor,
One the highroad, one the moor.
One of them Ono matter which,
Maybe poor, or maybe rich,
One with wealth, or n with not,
Road or moor. no matter what).
One Of them, who trudged along,
AS he Travelled, sang a song,
Smiled to see the sun again.
Played with snow, and laughed at rain,
One of them found many things
All along to give him wings,
Morning-glory, whippoorwill,
Often helped him up the hill.
One of them, I'm sad to say,
Travelled quite another way,
Cursed the rocks, and cursed the road,
Ev'ry labor, ev'ry load.
One Of them, (no matter whom,
Man of gladness, nan of gloom,
Man of wealth, or man of naughty,
Found at last the thing he sought.
One of them Ono matter which,
On the highroad, In the ditch)
Found the thing he sought, although
Which 1t was I do not know.
One of them, ] know at least,
Found work fun, and life a feast,
If he won, or If he lost,
Found the journey worth the cost.
Two there were. Whichever came,
Wealth or want, or failure, fame,
Good or bad, or right or wrong,
One at least had had the song.

Listed Among Handicaps
"There are today about 10000, 900
children in the United States of school
age. But of this number 1,060,858
are working, 714,00O of whom are
boys. Of all these children, so per
cent, a most conservative estimate,
will have foot trouble when they grow
up. Indeed, foot defects among
children are to be listed among the
most serious handicaps."
Photographic imprints of customers
feet, principally adults, taken in TO-
600 shoe stores in the United States
and Canada, showed 80 per cent of
foot effectiveness, according to re-
ports and imprints just gathered.
Various factors in modern life are
contributing to progressive physical
deterioration, orthopedists say. Soft
foods that offer no resistance to the
teeth and do not exercise the gums
others that contain no roughage es-
sential to healthy elimination; too
free eating Of foods Of high protein
content, artificial and badly arranged
lighting, and, as a cause of foot trou-
bles, then are the hard, flat, paved
surfaces that offer no residence to
the foot. Other causes for bad feet
are given by experts as:
Occupational tasks that require
standing on ones feet in one, or al
most one, position.
Straining and fatiguing some of the
foot and leg muscles, while others re-
comparatively inert, not active
" contracting.
Standing, when at rest, with the
feet slightly abducted and toes out,
lending to lengthen the inner edge
the foot and throw the weight of
body or the inner border of the
loot.

DEFECTIVE FEET

LEGATIONS of specialists go far to
prove it a fact. Shoe dealers find

Entire Country Affected

Foot weaknesses and defects affec-
ting almost the entire population of
the United States are said to be the
price of modern living and of wide
spread ignorance and neglect of the
proper care of the feet.
That they have reached alarming
proportions is shown by army figures
and those of school authorities and
other experts throughout the United
States.
Even school children are showing
an alarming increase in foot defects.
A summary of reports throughout
the country indicates:
That foot effectiveness ranges
from Is to 80 per cent in school
children of grammar school age to
SO per cent in teachers training clas-
ses.
That defects Of the arches Of the
feet have increased from 2 per cent
to 40 per cent since the adoption Of
pavements.
That passive amusements, such as
excessive automobile riding and undue
attendance at movie pictures, are sub
stituted for brisk exercise in the
open.
Pavements Impair Ones Pedals
That the Haskell Institute for In
dian Girls discovered that all students
had acquired foot ailments after
wearing shoes and after walking on
cement walks, hardwood floors and
pavements.
That defective feet r as common
among wealthy women, who have
never done a hard days work in their
lives, as among laborers.
That occupationai causes are re-
sponsible for increasing foot defec-
tiveness.
That the percentage of faulty fit
ted shoes has-been found to run as
nigh as 81 per cent in children Of
grammar school age.
In view of the widespread advance
IF foot ailments more than twenty
thousand shoe stores in the United
States and Canada, will observe Foot
