Making all allowance for the complexities of our life, there is de- cidedly a betterment. Today's youth is exhibiting traits which we, who are about to pass from the stage, could have used to advantage. The youth of today has frankness, directness in the point of view and an unwillingness to accept traditions.” University, another speaker, Perfect Foot Measured. In a new book on “Beautiful Feet.” written by an Austrian professor, the perfect foot is described. The author | says that the perfect foot should be three times as long as its greatest breadth, and in length exactly one-sev- enth of its owner's height. A person 5 | feet, 10 inches tall should have a foot | exactly 10 inches long. Many beauty | contest winners in Europe are inclined | to dispute the professor, but he stands | by his statements.
