A PUBLIC SCHOOL "FAD.y
Physical CuIture Pronounced n Waste
of Public Money.

NAAAa3o
While there may be debate over other
subjects in the public schools. there can be
none In reason concerning physical cul-
ture.' It Is simply a fad"
Ninety-nine per cent Of the children in
the public schools belong to families which
require their assistance in home manage
ment. There Is no one Of these children,
whether boy or girl, whose time out OF
school hours during daylight IL not spent
largely In assisting In household work OF
running family brands. Ninety-nine per
cent OF the children who attend the public
schools are SO tired physically by night that
they can scarcely get to bed soon enough.
This great mass of the pupils receive spon-
taneously and without q cent OF cost to the
taxpayers all the physical culture they
need. A large proportion Of the mass have
to endure more physical culture than IL
agreeable to them and some have to endure
more than is good for them. Additional
physical culture At public expense Is for
his mass OF the pupils a waste Of public
money and to a considerable extent q waste
Of the energy Of the children. The entire
item for physical culture" In the public
schools ought to be stricken out.
1t is true that after several hours con-
tinuous breathing Of the same atmosphere
within an m-ventilated eehoolroom chill
dren become languid. In this languor the
physical culture fad nnds it's plausible
apology. The proper cure, however. for the
languor is not to be sought in an enormous
waste Of public money. but in scientific APP
plication OF the principles Of ventilation In
the construction OF school buildings.
The science Of ventilation is a modern
one and has only entered upon universal
adoption. The old school buildings have no
ventilating appliances except their doors
and windows. These. however, can be used
with effect II the children are marched out
for q few minutes at frequent and regular
intervals 80 that the poisoned air Of the in
closure Tan be completely expelled and in
MIGRATING ozone let In. During the winter
season a little additional time would be re-
quired for donning the clothing necessary
for outgoing. This simple method Of
physical culture" will dispel mental Ian
guor and restore both corporal and intel
lectual power more thoroughly than anJ
pretty calisthenic drill within walls.
Physical culture" in the public schools
is an unmitigated fad and ought to be com
pletely eliminated.

1t to be fatal to effective regulation. 1t
was then urged that remedial procedure
Should be In a Measure summary, and
there must be 6nality. so far as facts
are concerned, in the action of some
tribunal, leaving only questions Of law
for review, and these at the instance of
the party claiming to be ~aggrieved."
While it is most desiL1ble that the law
be strengthened as recommended and
the powers of the commission under II
enlarged, it appears to us to be equally
important that provision be made for
more direct and prompt judicial action
In cases arising under the law than can
now be had.
The recommendations Of the indus
trial commission will strengthen public
opinion as to the necessity Of amend
ing the Interstate commerce act. They
are a conclusive answer to the conten-
ton Of some railroad managers that
the law is adequate as 1t stands and
that there is no need Of increasing the
powers Of the Interstate Commerce COM
mission. They should have a decided
influence favorable to the legislation
urged.
