Detailed examination of insertion of patellar tendon and medial femoral collateral ligament in adult dogs by light and electron microscopy shows an almost parallel array of collagen fibrils makes this an ideal model for study of mineral collagen relationships.

It is shown that a muscle can be replaced by one only one-fifth its weight, provided the latter is trained adequately, and not even the most arduous training could inflict permanent damage on the muscle.

It is concluded that weight bearing influences bone density and breaking force through muscle mass.

It was found that 1 daily maximum isometric contraction had no effect on the isometric strength of the muscles, 10 dailymaximum isometric contractions had a tendency to increase the isomet strength ofthe muscles, while 10 daily maximum eccentric contractionsHad no measurable effect on isometric muscle strength.

There was no change in total collagen to support the hypothesis that contractures occur as a result of stimulated collagen synthesis in strategic sites and changes in the dermatan sulfate fraction were less consistent.

It is concluded that there is a continuous change in the quality as well as the quantity of bone in the rat femur with age and that the increased strength of bone material found in bipedal animals compared to controls aswell as large animals as compared to small ones, cannot be explained on the basis of bone mineral content alone.

The tendon of peroneus brevis is thinner than that of tibialis anterior in the foetal and three-week old rabbit but thicker in the adult, while at three weeks there is no difference between these muscles in the ratio of the thickness of collagen in their tendons to the cross-sectional area of their muscle fasciculi.
