scnoo1boys Who Never Play.

Broadly speaking, German school
boys never play. They have no time to
do so. They attend day schools forlorn
of Fairgrounds and are so desperately
overweighted with lessons that all their
spare energy and vitality is used up in
the endeavor to get through the work
diurnally allotted to them. They really
have no opportunity from the COM
mencement of the school term to its
close for running or jumping, playing
at ball or marbles, paper chases or any
of the other amusements to which Eng
lsh schoolboys, as a rule, devote them
selves with an eager assiduity seldom
displayed in the dry and thorny pursuit
of knowledge.
When a German boy exhibits symp-
toms of exhaustion and debility, caused
by overwork, his parents enter him at
a gymnastic institution and compel
him to attend one or two evening
courses of scientific calisthenics,"
very possibly at the expense Of his po-
sition in his class at school. "Tur-
nerei," however, is not presented to
him in the light Of play, but down.
right hard physical work, which may
be productive Of development to his
