PHYSICAL EDUCATION.

DR.. Dudley a. Sargent, Well-known
as the director Of the Uemenway Gym
nasium, Harvard University has for
years been known us an advocate of
general as opposed to specialized physi-
cal culture, and in his new book, 'phySl-
cal Education in which he has collect
ed papers and essays written from time
to time during the past % years, may be
found his views of this most important
subject. ''The CRYING need of the hour,
says Dr. Sargent, SIS to get educators
to recognize the fundamental import
ance of all forms of physical training
and bodily activity as Il basis for the
cultivation of the highest mental and
moral faculties Dr.. Sargent has aim
ed to place the training of the body
upon the same educational basis as the
training of the intellect, believing that
this is the only rational way to meet the
excuses and abuses of athietlclSm and
to encourage the attainment of the
highest ideals in mental and physical
development.
DR.. Sargent naturally would not de-
vote so much time and expense to train
ing a few of the students to become
crack athletes, but would rather pro-
vide ways and means for the physical
training of all the students, more espec-
tally those who need it the most. He
is obliged to admit that as yet the lead
ing colleges have not accepted his ideas,
and instead we see large sums spent
each year to fostering the various
branches of competitive athletics
While a few men, candidates for or
members of the various college teams
and crews carry their exercise to ex-
cess, the real scholars of the college
take very little exercise and the ldlers
none at all Out of the whole number
of students in our college Dr.. Sargent
believes that not more than 10 per cent.
give any attention to physical exercise,
while less than 6 per cent. cultivate 1t
Systematically.
eff the colleges and universities would
make physical training an essential part
of their curriculum and give credit for
the results attained, the college prepare
tory schools would be induced to pre-
pare all their pupils physically as well
as mentally" says Dr. Sargent. Again
later on in the book he remarks: ''The
more experience we have in teaching
physical training and the more we OBJ
serve its results, the more we are con-
WINGED that the highest ideal for which
we should strive is the improvement OF
the individual man and structure and
function. This was the conclusion to
which | came 25 years ago, and time
and experience have confirmed it, In
conclusion he says eff we would pre-
serve exciting games and competitive
exercises as a part of our stock III trade
as a means to physical development. we
must be constantly on our guard to de-
tect abuses and withstand eXceSseS.

for mature reflection in his book. Dos
