Dear Elwyn:

When I was down at Atlanta, Georgia, this past sumer
at the coaching school sponsered by the Georgie Athletic Coaches
Association, I met Mr. P. We Lang who invented a foot normalizer,
the most wonderful feot conditioner thet I have ever seen. It is
not electrical = it is mechanical, and it is shaped mech efter the
manner of a rolling pin turned down to sloping endse

fr The two ends are set in a geared ratchet, and the in-
dividual stands on the roller with his bare feet and rolis upon
the revolving pin forward and backward with the weight of his body
to press the arches of the feet up in their normal position. The
patient holds en to a teble or desk and slowly roiis beckwerd and
forward for anywhere from forty to a hundred times. This is done
twice a dey, more conveniently morning and night - just when you
get out of bed and just before you retire,

Due to my heavy floor work of pivoting and stomping
and dribbling, I have subjected my feet to terrific pressure and
I have had some arch fatigue. I am frank to say that I have never
seen anything that has done my feet so much good in a short while.
I have spent $75 to $100 on manipulations by competent men who |
have worked on my archese

During my stey in Atlente Mr. Leng asked me to use
this and even efter the first treatment my feet were so greatly
relieved that I ordered two for our Physical Education Department -
one for the men's side of the gymnasium ond one for the women’s
side. Miss Hoover and the women instructors in the department,
and Drs Elbel, Yerbert Allphin and the men teachers, have used
the device and they are loud in their praise of the benefits one
can obtain by using this such a short while. ,

Mire Pe We Lang, Forsyth, Georgia, has asked me to write
and tell you about this arch normalizere He will send this to you
for your athletic association on a free thirty day trial without
any obligation. If you do not like it, return it to him et his
