Text Appearing Before Image:
-don to the ball of the great toe, forced outward to form a grotesque right angle to their natural position, a torturing and injurious strain to the whole extremity to the height of the knee and a positive menace to the general health. Nature designed every part of our bodies for use, and it is use in a natural manner that sustains health and vitality. In our revival of the dancing ideal which conforms to this law the feet and lower limbs are no more important than are other members of the body, except that they bear the burden of the bodys weight. The arms, the hands, the chest, the neck, the head, all are employed at every moment, and never singly nor arbitrarily. The chest is expanded, the droop taken out of Ninety-one Arms outstretched, and raised together, in movements which avoid unaesthetic angles, even in the energetic action shown on the left. The open, raised bust in the large figure illustrates the hygienic value of adhering to the heart centre of £dl true physical expression.
Text Appearing After Image:
Our Contribution to Health the shoulders; and with the raising of the chest in expansion the abdomen is automatically drawn in and held in place by the revitalized and strengthened broad ligament and all fatiguing pressure is taken off the sensitive lower part of the back, where those delicate and im-portant organs, the kidneys, are located. Health: A sound mind in a sound body. Hygeia was its goddess. The more we dwell upon the subject the more we are inclined to believe that Hygeia must have been the tutor of Terpsichore, as well as her sister deity! In a previous chapter dealing with the unhygienic tyranny of conventional clothing we have quoted some admirable conclusions by Lieutenant Mueller, the celebrated physical expert of the Danish Army whose advice and personal training has been sought by many famous men and women. Perhaps with deeper insight and wider experience than are manifested by any other living authority. Lieutenant Mueller seems perfectly to actualize that axiom.
