1t is not always that mascot is such
an accomplished parsonage! Usually the
virtue of the lucky one consists only in
bringing good fortune. But this English
mascot has record of accomplishments
of her own. She is an athletic girl. At
the Liverpool Girls Club, where she
spent seven years, preparatory and final,
she made three conquests over the others
of the athletic class. She jumped the
highest, sprinted the fastest, and could
swing highest and longest, hanging by
her arms. This last accomplishment is
very beneficial one for girls SO athletes
say and much attention is paid to the
development Of the arm muscles. The
jumps made by the mascot were standing
high jumps, and the sprint was over q
course of an eighth of mile.
1t must not be supposed that girls who
train in athletic fields accomplish no
results. On the contrary, they often put
boys classes to blush; and as for coaches
and critics, they are unequaled.
Not infrequently you may see in New
Haven and at the club grounds where the
athletes practice party of young women
sitting around upon camp stools inte ntly
watching the jumps and runs They are
the friends of the athletes admitted by
special permission Their object is to
criticise and suggest. A poor jumper is
told where she stands faulty, why he has
too little breath to sustain him, and the
proper position of the head.
AS woman's thoughts turn toward
her clothes, it may be told that the dress
of these girls is source of special pride
to them. They claim it is ideal. And
the mascot herself told member of the
Ladies' Berkeley Club of New York that
she could easily do all her athletic feats,
fully dressed in her ideal sporting suit
the street dress which she wears every
day And that it positively would not
be injured by rain, damp, or sunshine
The real virtues Of the English mascots
are not set forth as clearly as believer in
mascots would like them. There is an
uncertainty about their actual merits
beyond that of looking pretty and being
very good company. But if they fill both
of these it is all one could conscientiously
ask of girl. And if, in addition to this,
they are as cheerful in case of dofeat. as
in victory, then, indeed, no more need be
asked of any mascot.
