The
same
complaint
that
I
have
made
against
the
ordinary
chair
can
be
registered
with
special
force
against
the
desks
used
in
the
schoolrooms.
There
is
no
question
that
a
great
deal
of
spinal
curvature
in
childhood,
to
say
nothing
of
round
shoulders
and
flat
chests,
are
directly
the
result
of
the
improper
sitting
posture
in
the
schools
which
is
enforced
upon
the
children
because
of
the
unsuitable
character
of
their
seating
arrangements.
Thus
we
practically
begin
life
hampered
by
an
unsatisfactory
environment,
so
far
as
our
sitting
posture
is
concerned.
The
chair
back
or
the
desk
chair
should
fit
the
human
back.
It.
should
favor
and
not
hamper
one
in
assuming
a
normal
and
straight
position
of
the
spine.
When
you
get
up
in
the
morning,
exercise
yourself
a
little
in
straightening
the
spine,
chin
in,
downward
and
backward.
When
you
walk
to
business
or
when
you
go
about
your
duties,
keep
the
same
thought
in
mind.
Force
the
head
back.
Take
the
exercises
which
you
will
find
in
the
next
chapter,
referring
to
the
thyroid
gland,
at
very
frequent
intervals
during
the
day.
Remember
that
in
fighting
for
a
straight
spine
you
are
fighting
for
youth
and
health
and
life
and
energy
and
courage
and
enthusiasm.
You
are
fighting
for
everything
that
is
best
in
life,
and
you
should
strive
and
struggle
with
all
the
energy
you
possess
to
win
the
rewards
associated
therewith.
Each
day
of
your
life
will
bring
difficulties,
worries.
Life
at
its
best
is
not
a
bed
of
roses.
All
these
various
influences
are
inclined
to
make
you
hang
your
head.
You
may
have
moments
when
you
are
hopeless,
when
life
seems
forbidding
and
cheerless.
Fight
against
such
inclinations
with
all
the
power
you
possess.
Struggle
against
such
discouragements
with
all
your
might
and
main,
not
only
through
your
mental
attitude
but
through
your
determination
to
maintain
an
erect
spine.
Hold
your
head
up
and
look
the
world
in
the
face.
