THE ART or FALLING.
what the G.mnast Does when He Tumblca
From High Place.

The story that a man fell 200 feet tla
other day and didn't hurt himself is anus
ing" said the director of gymnasium.
but, cutting all foolishness out, there was
more than a grain of truth In it, Mhah
l mean is, that man who knows how o
fall can fall considerable distance wihouu
getting anything more than bruisc OF
two
"The trouble is that the average man
doesn't know anything about falling easily.
Now, one of the first things that a gymnass
or one who performs anywhere about t's
ground must learn is Just how TO avoid
serious injury in falls.
Nearly every gymnast tumbles sooner
or later, but if you will think il over, '0e
number of professional and amateur per-
formers hurt in a year is comparatively
small. The reason for that is that they
have learned not only how to avoid falling.
but how to protect themselves when 10
fall does come
Just as an example, had fall from n
height of about twenty feet the other days
