Roller Skating.

The Grand Jury of Dauphin County,
Pa, is the first we have heard of that
has taken action against SIX ating Kinks,
1t condemns them in strong language
az being detrimental 10 the health and
destructive of the morals Of the youth
who frequent them. There may be
cause for objection to the manner in
which many skating Kinks in the coun-
try are carried on, but those objections
do not seem to lie in a great degree
against the rink in Wilmington The
m lst perfect order is maintained and
KIN )wn persons Of dlsrepute are rigidly
excluded, The propriety and useful
ness OF the skating rink have been
variously commented upon in church
congregations and AZ the firesde, and
few are found who condemn them.
while the grett mass of the people GER
tainly give them strong counter 4nce
Promiscuous aasemblages of any kind
are never conducive 10 good morals,
and exciting exercise long continued is
severe strain upon the muscles These
ar objections, however, to any amuse-
ment, no matter how innocent il may
b. in itself. Roller skating, with GER
tain limitations and restrictions, may
be made a most pleasant and pro.
fitable recreation Without these il
may be the most obi 'ctionable.
