People are speaking good deal more
about physical culture and giving thai
subject more attention to-day than yearl
ago, Everybody Is trying to find some
thing out about physical exercise. How
can it be otherwise, for health, which Il
maintained by exercising the body, is o.
more value to men than anything else

to say OF the importance OF physical
education. He who has not seen in the
imperfect growth, pale faces, distorted
forms and painful nervousness OF the
American people, enough to justify any
and all efforts to elevate our physical
tone, would not be awakened by words
written or spoken"
