Gymnanstics in the schools.
School Trustee James F. Murphy in .
talk with a TRIBUNE man yesterday said
that the schools in this place should fol-
low the pawtucket institutions Of learn
Ing and adopt some system of gymnastics
to be taught in the schools. The Pawtuc-
ket school committee has adopted the
Swedish system and employed Mrs. Col
Inns OF Boston to instruct the teachers so
that they may instruct the pupils. Mr..
Murphy thought that in districts one and
two, that is, in Central Falls, some system
should be adopted. This is an, excellent
suggestion and should be acted upon i'm
mediately by the school government.
