Athletics For Women.

In the memorial building Of the Young
Women's Christian association in Brook
lyn is gymnasium which was opened
last season. 1t has been constructed to
meet the needs of young women who
can give only the evening hours to ath-
letic exercise and pay only nominal
sum. In addition to the gymnasium
hall, with its visitors gallery and ele-
waited running track, are dressing rooms,
bathrooms and needle baths. For the
modest sum of cents any woman,
whether a member or not of the gymna-
stun, can have bath. The work in
the gym comprises three grades-calis-
thenic, gymnastic and corrective Cor
sets and close fitting waists are prohib-
tied in all grades Of work. Among the
women we'll known in Brooklyn society
who are generous supporters Of the as
sociation are Mrs. Samuel B. Duryea,
Mrs. Clark Burnham, Mrs. G. II. Prem
tiss and Mrs. G. W. Ide.
One of the prettiest of gymnastic ex-
ercises-a new one-is that in which
the line Of girls moves in an elaborate
arabesque or scroll, winding around in
concentrio circles and then unwinding
to form long line moving down the
length OF the room in skillfully plan
ned curves. The music grows slower
and slower until the line finally comes to
a standstill, when the girls take their
places for other exercises. s.-Brooklyn
