Some Forms of Amusement That Are
Harmful to High Degree.
Amusements of a proper sort are con-
ducive to health. The sports of child
hood not only tougher the muscles and
invigorate the system, but prevent too
much cerebral activity. At the same
time they develop agility, alertness,
daring and not few of the qualities
essential to success in life.
1t is largely the same with the sports
of youth, especially among students
and all who are engaged in sedentarv
pursuits For some persons all that is
feasible is simply diversion-a change
in the line of thought feeling and care;
not an enforced change, with this for
my health behind it, but natural and
pleasant one, which for the time alters
