Toes: toe boxing should be high

Check height, to avoid pinch

Don't Use 'Hand-Me-Downs"
With rapidly growing feet
shoes often are still good wher
they are outgrown. Don't bt
tempted to hand them down tt
a younger child. No two pair:
of feet are exactly alike. A
good leather shoe, when new
will conform to a child's foo
after being worn a week or two
Once the shoe is nodded to the
foot it will not change. If the
shoe is worn by another child
the tender foot is apt to bt
twisted and turned to fit tn,
shape of the shoe.
Socks Are Important
Socks which are too shor
have the same effect as poorl,
fitted shoes. They should b.
loose around the toes, for snul
stockings limit the graspinl
function of the child's toes. Chill
dren's socks should allow abou
Y inch of space beyond the en-,
of the longest toe.

Selecting Shoes for Children
The foundations of good foot
health are laid in infancy and
C h ii d h o o d. Many adult foot
troubles can be traced back to
the early years. Forcing infants
to walk too soon, permitting
them to develop poor walking
habits, buying children the WRONG
shoes or allowing them to wear
outgrown and misfit footgear-
all can lay the groundwork for
future troubles.
The First Shoes
An infants foot structure be-
gins with cartilage, which is
gradually replaced by bone as
the foot develops. Until the
foot is sturdy enough and mus.
cles are formed, the child will
not stand. He'll usually stand
when he is between nine and
Is months of age. When he's
ready, the child will walk.
A child doesn't need shoes
until he begins to stand. Al
that time then provide him g
stable base, protect the foot
and encourage him to walk. High
laced shoes for very young chill
dren are the best choice. LooE
for full-cut uppers with ample
toe room, and soft pliable leath

Foot Troubles
Can Be Traced
Back to Youth

Selecting proper shoes for
YOUR children is the best way
TO be sure that your children
will grow up with healthy feet,
declares Miss Janet Reed, ex-
tension clothing specialist, Uni
versity of Delaware.
MANY adult foot troubles can
be traced back to childhood
years." Miss Reed explains.
Encouraging children to walk
too soon, buying them poorly
fitted shoes, or allowing them
to wear outgrown footgear are
common causes of foot trouble.
High-laced shoes of pliable
leather are best for children
who are beginning to walk. Ok
fords will provide adequate sup
port for children's feet from
about age two.
Children's feet grow rapidly,
sometimes as much as a full
size a month. Miss Reed urges
YOU to check frequently to be
sure your children are not out
growing their shoes faster than
you think.
Miss Reed discusses how to
determine the proper size ane

ers. The soles should be flat,
pliable and of firm leather shap-
ed to follow the contours of the
young foot.
Until the age two, he should
be kept in high shoes which he
cannot kick off; after that he
can wear oxfords.
Leather Is Best
The material from which the
shoe is made should be porous
enough to allow perspiration to
evaporate, and flexible enough
to allow the foot to bend easily.
Leather is a satisfactory mater
ial for these reasons.
Summer shoes should give the
same support as school shoes.
Sneakers and canvas shoes with
no support may be worn on soft
ground for short periods of time
only.
Feet Grow Quickly
Young feet develop at a rap
id rate, and can sometimes grow
as much as a full size within
a month. The chart below will
give some idea of the average
child's foot growth. But nc
child is average" and each child
should have his feet examined
regularly and checked for cor.
rect foot size.
Smyrna times., 1960-12-15

Growth spurts are particular
ly common among adolescent
boys and a close watch should
be kept on the fit of their shoes.
Check the Fit
The bones of the young foot
are pliable, so outgrown shoes
rarely cause pain. The foot will
conform to the shape of the
shoe. Medical science has shown
there is a close relationship be-
tween foot ills and childhood
fatigue, irritability, lack of con-
centration and poor posture, in
addition to laying the gronud-
work for possible foot troubles
in adult life.
Check the fit OF the shoe with
the child standing. Press the
end of the shoe with youl
thumb. If there is no space
between the end of his toes ano
the end of the shoe, get new
shoes Immediately.
When buying new shoes, buy
from a reliable dealer. Deter
mine the correct length anc
width of both feet while the
child is standing. Check these
points for fit:
Length: Y to | inch longer thar
longest toe.
Width: wi st part of foo
should be at widest part o.

Over Segregation Issue
Colquitt, Ca. (ANP) - Segrega-
ton Of Negro voters by setting up
a polling place for them in the
basement Of the courthouse in Ter
rell County prompted a member Of
the registration board to resign.
Terrell County is under a federal
court order not to discriminate
against Negroes after a federal
judge ruled they had been kept off
voting lists because Of racial bias.
Superior Court Judge Walter
Geer said James-G. Raines, chair
man Of the Terrell County Board
Of Registrars, resigned in protest
over segregated polling booths.
Raines said separate voting
booths violated the spirit Of the
federal court order against dis
elimination.
Geer said registrars have no
authority over conduct Of elections
and Raines was stepping beyond
this in trying to say how they
should be held.
The judge said he had been in
formed that 80 or more white per-
sons voted in the basement as well
as some Negroes and that a Ne
gro was permitted to vote in the
booth set up for white persons in
the grand jury room in the court
house.

lor, President Of the Protestant
Council Of New York City, appeal
ed to the nations Catholic COM
munity to support the national

critics.
Referring to the religious issue
in the recent election, DR.. Taylor
said "the Catholic community now
knows, thank Heaven, what it feels
like to enjoy first-class citizen
ship"
Asserting that lone good turn
deserves another" the pastor of
Brooklyn's Concord Baptist church
and New York Board of Education
member advocated consideration of
"a qualified member of the Jewish
faith for the Presidency in the
early future" and the nomination
in 1862 of qualified Negroes for
the United States Senate.
The New York clergyman at
tributed the election Of Americas
first Catholic Chief Executive to
"a combination OF Catholics, Jews,
Negroes and liberal Protestants in
the big pivotal states" He added
that this same voting constella-
ton can demonstrate our lack of
bigotry toward Jews and Negroes
Just as we have shown our lack of
bias against Catholics"
DR.. Taylor admitted that, in
some quarters, his appeal might be
decried as "demagoguery." Such
a charge, he declared, would be
"pious hypocrisy, since we all know
we have not reached the place in
America where we do not think
about race, religion and region in
political choices'
Although he lauded the election
of Senator Kennedy as "a good

Could one ask for fairer treat
ment?
And all because a great fan Of
the entire human race, Percy villa,
took the bull by the horns and
started the ball rolling in the right
direction in Las Vegas.
And before I close Percy want
to bring you greetings from one
Of the leading citizens of Las
Vegas and certainly one of the
worlds leading Negroes-the one
and only James Arthur CJimmy)
Gay.
Jimmy still holds the post Of
Nevada boxing commissioner which
you got for him and still has one
Of the leading hotel positions in
the nation. The Sands hotel where
we stayed for FIVE days seems to
be run by Jimmy who is personnel
director, when he isn't shooting par
golf or checking on his various
other business enterprises.
Jimmy took over the entire Min
neapohs contingent at Las Vegas
and saw to it our every request
was granted. Not for Phoebe and
myself or my travelling companions
the Frank Diamonds of Minneapo-
lis and the Dick Strachotas of
Hopkins but because we were from
Minneapolis and friends Of Percy
Villa.
And best of all we weren't the
only Negroes in Las Vegas. I'd
guess that every leading hotel
boastod from two to five couples.
None of us were singled out for
special treatment we were
treated as people &. Just ordinary
Americans out for a good time and
believe you me, Percy we did have
a good time, for Las Vegas, just
as you've always said is the en-
tertainment capital of the world"

night at Las Vegas: We had dinner

to explain for who in this

year old girl, my daughter,
why she couldn't enter a building
to get an autograph from Pearl

cause of the color of her skin.
Unjustly I took verbal revenge
on you for I knew that you had
spent two years in Las Vegas as
newspaper staffer and hadn't
done a thing Il thought) to rectify
the situation.
Little did 1 know.
Just few weeks later you came
to me and said things had changed
over night. You didn't take any of
the credit but from what I learned
later in Las Vegas Percy Villa
had as much to do with the quiet,
overnight change in policy Of this
world entertainment center as any

I shall never doubt you again.
