The carc vou give to your feet and to the selection of your shoes for every occasion is ential to your good health, efficiency, and physical activities in all walks of life. Good feet are a sure step to help prevent accidents. WASH FREQ( Bathe your feet cnce or even twice a day, dry them thoroughly and use a foot powder recommended by your chiropodist-podiatrist. CHANGE OFTEN! Never wear the same pair of shoes two days in succession, and change socks or stockings once or twice a day. TRIM RIGHT! Cut your toenails straight across and not shorter than the flesh. WEAR RIGHT! Wear all-leather shoes, both soles and uppers, and pick the right shoe for the right occasion. FIT RIGHT! Be sure you have the proper size of shoe, the proper last of shoe, and the proper size of sock or stocking (half-inch longer than longest toe.) EXERCISE! Limber up your feet at intervals — they have muscles too, remember. Wiggle your toes! Ex- pose them to air. KEEP DRY'! Don’t needlessly get your feet wet in shoes and don’t let them stay wet from perspiration. WALK RIGHT! Cultivate gecod posture and give your feet proper support with all-leather shoes. DON'T NEGLECT! Have your own and your children’s feet examined at frequent intervals—by a chiropodist-podiatrist. AVOID the use of strong medicines or sharp instruments on the feet. This will help prevent serious infec- tions. GIVE immediate attention to all wounds, blisters, skin eruptions, etc. TAKE CARE! Don’t be a “bathroom surgeon.” If your feet need attention, consult a qualified chiropodist-podi- atrist.
