Excerpt from Physical Culture and Development of the Voice Physical education should begin the hour of a child's birth. After the babe has, for the first time, been dressed, fed and prepared for sleep, it should be placed on a bed, perfectly level, and not too soft, in such a position that pure air may freely enter its lungs. If a pillow is not used at first, it will never be wanted, and none should be allowed, except a small one, which may be used to hold the body in a comfortable position, if it rests on either side. On no account should the shoulders be bent forward, as'the round shoulders, so often seen later in life, are first bent forward in early infancy. When lying on its back, no pillow should be allowed to touch the child's body. A healthy babe at first shows no indication of round shoulders. These are produced largely by improper, positions being allowed during the hours for sleep. During one night's sleep more may be done to deform the body, than can be accomplished 1n days of practice to overcome the evil tendency thus acquired. If the shoulders are turned forward, while the body is lying on the side, the shoulder-blades become curved instead of at, and as the child grows older, and the bones harden, it becomes more and more difficult to bring the shoulder is back to the proper position.
