CAN YOU DO IT?
Here 'a a difficult acrobatic trick to try, and you will be ever eo clever if you can manage it without tumbling over. Stand up straight, and then raise your right leg straight up in front of you until it is at light angles with your body. Now bend your left knee and sink slowly downwards, still holding your right leg straight out in front of you. Sink lower and lower until you are but a few inchos from the ground. Nearly everyone has to fall at this stage, and it takes quite a lot of practice to do it properly.
