Excerpt from The Solution of the School Room Seating Problem
The most important demands made upon a school desk come under this head. First, the chair must be properly shaped; the back support of the chair must pro vide proper support and must be curved for comfort. Proper support of the back of the user is of paramount importance. As a matter of fact, no kind of a back will be used unless the desk has a sliding top, for whenever a pupil starts to read or to write he leans forward to reach the ordinary top, and he might as well be seated upon a stool. In the chair of the Single Pedestal Desk the pupil sits erect with the back properly supported, and when he starts to write he pulls the sliding top out and remains erect and properly placed in his chair.
All of the above avoids the tendency to improper sitting position, leading to injurious pressure on nerve centers and deranged blood circulation.
