Some children, Of the ''born rider

once and rode well. Others had
bad seat and bad attitude from the
first. Quite probably their wheels
had not been selected properly and
were not adopted to their height or
their length of limb. II their wheels
did not run easily,-and in those days
the bicycle was rather different

they took it as matter OF course and

They evolved for themselves what
they thought the best way to ride,
and there appeared horde Of '.mon-

setting themselves to make or to

complacently of the exploits of their

that there might be harm doing. In

ever, there has been from the outset
goodly number of people who be-
lieved in the bicycle and thought it
had other uses than a mere means
of getting about the country and rid
ing to and from work. Their faith
has been justified by the healthy re-
vival Of which have spoken, re-
vival that has been helped ON by the
sensible utterances of physicians on
the subject. When one well known
doctor says, Il have often given BIZ

exercise above horseback riding and

has thought seriously of the physical

tiers feels that it is perhaps well to
look into this matter Of bicycling in

had a message to deliver to the world
and they compelled their bodies to
yield to their minds. But they were
exceptions. AS rule the mind is
more or less in bondage to the body.
If the man or woman is to make the
best of his or her mental equipment,
the physique must be brought to it's
highest perfection.
1t is never too early to begin to do
this. Those of us who have trained
children mentally and morally know
that the work is started when the ba-
bies are in the cradle. The habits of
obedience may not be prenatal, but
they should be formed so soon after
birth as to become like nature to the
child.
Perhaps it may seem absurd to de-
mand as much for the child's body
but we do not know what We might
have made of 1t If We had given it
more intelligent attention. Even as
it is the mother soon learns that the
child must not lie in unnatural pos
lures, that the eyes must be cared
for, that the back must be kept
straight and not exerted too soon, that
the limbs must be rubbed and flexed
If they no not develop as they should.
The child must not be allowed to sit
up alone, to stand or to walk too
early, lest there be curvatures or NAL
formations.
All this is done while the baby is
a wee thing, but what is done in the
line Of intelligent physical guidance
when he-or she-is able to 60 about
and make way through the world?
When this point is reached the chill
dren are allowed to look out for
themselves. They may be encouraged
to take active EXERCISE though, in
deed, Nature generally leads them to
do this,-but the parents are too few
who direct the exercise their children
take and see for themselves that the
youngsters set about it in the right
way. The boys go with other boys
and so learn to play baseball and foot
ball, to swim, to row, to ride a
wheel. The girls meet other girls and
roll hoop, skip ropes, and bicycle:
And the father and mother feel that
they have done the whole duty Of par
ents when they provide the means for
these out door enjoyments It seldom
occurs tothem to make sure that they
have secured just what the children's
physical nature demands,-much less
to see that the help to exercise is
used In a way to enable the child to
get from 1t what he or she needs
h Let US take the case of the bicycle,
for instance, selecting this because
of the revival in bicycle riding which
Is taking place all over the country.
There was q time when it was fad,
and like most fads, it was abused.
There Was never a good thing vet that
was not susceptible OF misuse, and the
bicycle Is shining example Of the
fact A few years ago everyone rode

~ There is no agricultural district in
which farmer of small means has
been able to start more advantage
ously than in North Dakota. Il is
possible that the opportunities for
establishing home in North Dakota
on small means are not as favorable
at the present time as they were
earlier in its history owing to the ad-
vance in the price of land. But 1t
must be remembered that all other
conditions are in favor Of opening up
and establishing homes more cheaply
than could be done a decade ago
owing to the great reduction in the
interest rates, in the price Of farm
machinery, and nearly everything that
the farmer has to purchase.
