A great many of our north shore young ~ople go arou~d with their lieads tilted back, thear necks drawn inward and their backs curved outward, all of which is caused from sitting on the spine instead of in the manner prescribed by nature. Sitting on the spine is largely peculiar to high school and college students, and, surprising as it may seem, even among military and naval students· Some of the youngsters grow out of this habit but many grow up that way and it is almost impossible for them to straighten out properly. Many ailments can be .attributed. to improper posture, accordmg to emment medical authorities. -A.
