1- claim as my invention:

1. A last having" a toe part and a heel part, a pin or pivot bearing between the parts and' a connecting means extending the other, said con-' necting means comprising a link that is directly connected by a pin to the toe part and a'lever which is directly connected to the heel part by means of a pin, the rear end of the being directly connected to link the.lower end the lever, the upper end of the lever being engaged by means comprising a compression spring which tends to restore the heel and toe parts to normal position after the last has been broken, the heel part of the last also being provided with a locking means or latch which engages said lever so as to prevent the last from heme brokenwhile the lever is locked.

directly connected to the l -parts to unbroken position 2. A last comprising a heel and a toe part provided with hearing pins between them, said parts having.longitudinally extending openings forreceiving a connecting link and said heel part having a vertically but longitudinally extending saw-cut for receiving a lever, said last also comprising a link which is pivotally connected at its forward end to the toe part of the last, a lever located in said saw-cut, which lever is pivotally connected to the heel part and also at its lower end to the rear end of said link, and spring means that engages the upper end of said lever and which spring means tends to force the upper end of the lever as to restore the heel and toe after they have been moved from said position, the link being arranged so that the line passingthrough the centers of the pivot pins at the ends of the link is located below the center of the bearing pins between the heel and toe parts. last comprising a heel part and a toe part which can swing relative to each other about a transversely but longitudinally extending axis, said parts being eonnccted by a means which comprises a longitudinally extending link that is located below the sai'd'axis, said means also comprising a vertically extending lever, the forward end of said link being connected directly to the toe part of the last, the rear end of said link being pivotallyconnected to the lower free end ofsaid lever that is in turn pivotally connected to the heel part of the last, the last also being provided with a locking means which engages the upper free end of said lever whereby the parts of the last will be maintained in unbroken position relative to each other. 4
