Closing Exercises
Now Underway At

Here it is again the first week of j
May when we should be thinking
of cleaning out the basement, clip
ping the rose bushes, and rummag
ing through the attic for last sea
son's bathing suit — but no, the
South Carolina Chiropractors As
sociation comes out with Correct
Posture Week and asks a shocker—
“Is Your Lordosis Showing? ’
What with spring here and sum

the corner, these chiropractors may
have something. Who wants to be
caught with their lordosis showing?
The Chirocpractor Home Maga

sort of “hollow back.” They fur- 1

“when the back curves too deeply
in its lower curve, the abdomen be-1

praetors, says the S. C. C. A., regard)
the body as “a masterpiece of en

spine as the “central shaft” which
is the foundation of everything.

according to the chiropractors, is
that much-abused collection of ver- !
tebrae, including the sacrum and
coccyx (tail bone to you) that make
up man's spine.* Yet most people
ignore it. they say.
In advising us to "stand tall to be
healthy,” the Sou^i Carolina Chi
ropractors association atks “why is
it the average American will have
his teeth cleaned, his hair shampoo
ed and his scalp maas&fed. even
his nails manicured, but when you
ask him if he has had his posture
checked he looks at you like you
were talking Greek?
The chiropractors point out that 1
any credit for an increase in the|
general health of the nation should
give proper recognition to the factj
that American people are becoming
as back conscious as they are face
conscious.
Posture experts from the S C. C.
A. say most persons make the se
rious mistake of sizing themselves
up in the mirror which only shows
a front view. "People seem toj

think that they can throw on a
dress or suit of clothes and hide'
sloppy figures. That isn't true.
It’s high time everybody gives him
self a posture examination by re
moving his clothing and studying
hunself in the mirror as to body
larnage when viewed from the
side position "
Good posture, say the chiroprac
tors. contributes to good health, and
poor posture to poor health.
The S C. C. A. says it hopes that
when you squeeze into last year’s
bathing suit and head for the
beach in a few weeks, you’ll re
member what they say about your,
spine. Who wants to have their
Lordosis showing—or even a Ky
phosis for that matterf "Stand tall
to be beautiful” says the South
