That the mental may ofttines con-

the case of George E. Mix, the cham
pion Indian club swinger of Yale uni
versity ~:.'c
Mr.. Mix, who will be graduated from
the Yale law school in 1904, has from
early boyhood been cripple, and at one
time had such ill health that his life
was despaired of. The accident that
crippled him occurred when he was 4
years old. Walking on an icy sidewalk
with a careless nursemaid he slipped,
breaking his right hip.
In the setting of the bone the carti-
lage that forms the lining of the socket
was not replaced so that when the
break had healed it was discovered too
late the leg would not move in the hip
socket and that the boy must forever
be cripple.
When ID his health became 50 bad
that doctors gave him up, declaring to
his anxious parents that it was only a
question of a brief time before he would
be taken from them. Then it was the
indomitable will that has since marked
Mr.. Mix's career first asserted ITSELF :"
Without a word to his parents he
joined a Young Mems ChristianAssocia-
ton gymnasium and took up Indian cluo
swinging. 1t saved his life, but not
without a, desperate struggle on his part
for in speaking Of it to the writer he
said:
mo one may ever really know what
I suffered" :
He used to ache from head to foot
and was so weak at first that he could
scarcely swing the clubs. But he per-
| severed and finally his health began to
mend, and as time went on he developed
tremendous strength. From puny
sickly lad he straightway grew into a
| big brawny youth of splendid proper
tions, with a pair of shoulders ana a
forearm that would delight the heart
and be the envy of almost any athlete.
At Williston academy, Where Mr.. Mix
was graduated in 1895, he won athletic
honors, and when he. came to Yale DR.
Anderson and Instructor C.. w. H. Hand
of the university gym" became inter
ested in him.: They persuaded him tc
continue his club swinging, with the
. result that for two years he has beer
the university champion. - =. -:

\ Good Symptom.

An evidence of the great
interest which the people OF this
parish are beginning to take in
educational matters can be seen
at the meetings of the School
Board, Citizens engaged in
some movement to promote the
educational interests of their
localities appear at every session
of that body to urge some action
calculated to benefit their
schools. This is a good symp-
tom. It shows that the people,
whose children attend the
schools, are taking an active,
wholesome interest in the edu-
catiOnal development of the com
munity. It is right that the
peOple-the patrons OF the
schools--should take a hand In
the educational affairs of the
| parish. 1t is their children ano
children's children whose vel
fare is wrapped up in the sue
cess of the school campaign
which is on in this parish ant
which is a living, breathing issue
that will not down until ever:
boy and girl is given ta1
chance to get an education am
to fit himself or herself for TIN
battle of life.
