DEPRESSION.

(From the Washington Starr
I am tryin' to be happy, but there's some
thin that I've lost.
This world once seemed SO joyous; now
it's dark and trouble-tossed.
I felt the sense of sovereignty a feller's
shown when
He gifts his ballot ready as a simple citi-
zen.
But the sunlight will not stay
An the music fades away,
An I'm wrapped in melancholy most pro-
found.
It's in vain I scan the scene
Fur that frlendliness so keen.
There amt no 'lectioneerin' folks around.
They've vanished like the bobolinks who
used to sing so sweet,
But who stopped it when they took to
gettin' fat
Who heard of fields affair where there was
finer things to eat,
An who started out to find where they
We're at.
All neglected now I stand,
No one graspin' of my hand
Nor spreadn' fiattery's Soft an soothin
sound
In the clouds I used to soar,
But I've hit the earth once more
Since there amt no 'lectiOneerin' folks
around.

correct living.
That this work should begin with
youth in the school room, cannot be
questioned The scope Of general edu-
cation should embrace muscular train
ing a $ an essential part of any thor
ough school work.
1t is certainly true that, upon general
principles, the highest standard of men
tai attainment and practical usefulness
can be reached by What insures sound
bodily health and beauty.
/ am aware that calisthenics are now
taught in many schools, but oftener by
teachers who have not themselves been
instructed in the true science of physi-
cal development, than by those who
really understand physical and mental
relationship and the definite purpose Of
every movement taught.
There should be q. competent physf-
cal instructor in every public school
fOrce-a man or WOman-Who, thor
oughly versed in anatomy physiology,
sanitary science and kindred subjects,
would make physical examinations and
determine the nature and course of
study and exercise for each pupil ac-
cOtdlng to temperament and individual
needs
To keep a school fun of children of
different abilities, different tempera-
ments, different inherited qualities or
body and brain, and different degrees
of endurance at the same high pressure
mentally, and without the supervision
Of a competent physician or
physical director, is much like
running a complicated engine
without having q trained hand at
the throttle. Something is likely to
smash. Usually in the human machine
it is nerves.
When practical physical development
and mental science cooperate, We shall
have the true and the only true edu-
cation. Then will men and women
become sound and beautiful in har-
mOny with natural law Improving
the tree of knowledge from the root, its
branches will bear only good fruits.
Then will reformatories and prisons
and other places for the suppression of
evil-doers give way to logical eXtermi-
nation of natural tendency to evil-do-
ing. With bodies developed by accu-
rate laws. and brains trained to ex-
press, not crammed to repeat, we shall
have the highest realizations of the per
feet human being.
There can be no question but the laws
of nature provide for such a type-one
more perfect than the Greek at its
highest. A type no less physically
beautiful, but refined and softened by
the accumulated moral ideals of the
centuries.
The realization of perfection rests
with ourselves.
