Physical Strength and Education

Through the generosity of the citi-
zens of Bennington a fine Y. M. c. A.
building, including a we'll appointed
gymnasium, has teon erected here for
the benefit of the youth ana men Of
the village. These who enjoy the
benefits of he building and others
who ought to win be Interested in the
following from a recent issue Of the
Youths Comp micn;
1t has been tradition since arcient
times that the best man has a strong
mind in a srong body. Only in our
time has scienCi1c study of statistical
averages est6tll,t"d that in he race
as a whole the combination vi good
brains and good nea!.h is nos only an
ideal to be sought after, but is actu.
ally realized SO freldealy as to be the
prevailing rule.
Doctor Saretnr, the physical direc-
Tor Of Harvard University, has pres.
enieG recently, NJ the Popular Science
Monthly, conclusions from lis cbser-
/ vations and from those Of Kindred in
vestigators. He recalls that some
years ago a physician studied thirty
thousanU school children, aud found
that ment0l pres)ciry and physical
pIecojity coinci1rl.
| When men in claSses arr considered
1t is found that intellectual cmincnce
accompanies high degree of physic
al strength. IDIOTS, moral degener.
ates and criminals are below the av-
erage of height and weight The
British Royal society whose members
may be assumed to have as good
brains as there are in England, is
above the average in physical devel
opment

of $1,000, land was purchased on
which was erected the brick building,
which has since housed the school
children of Montpelier The old cor
poration still maintains it's existence
and has a representation on the
school board.

J. Brownscombe, who has been In
charge OF the city schools for the past
five years, the high school has tagen

Media in Paris.

Nine. Melba has seldom received
such remarkable ovation as that
which greeted her appearance at the
recent opera gala performance in
Paris. 1t cannot. however, compare
In delirious enthusiasm with one she
received some years ago in ST. Peters
burg. On one memorable night, after
the close of the opera, she was called
before the curtain again and again
for more than an hour, until she was
so exhausted that she could scarcely
stand. Her enthusiastic admirers
then followed her carriage to the no.
tel, where they serenaded her, al
though it was a bitterly cold night,
until three o'clock in the morning. On
the following day when she reached
the station TO depart the platform was
crowded with hundreds Of adoring
music lovers. As the train was leav-
ing they took the pencil with which
she had written her autograph for
all who could get near her, bit it into
small pieces and passed them around
as souvenirs.

and a number of residences were dam
aged by lightning, The victim is Mrs.
Isabella Baxter of S street, aged 81
years. She was at work in her kitch-

house and killed her instantly.
The downpour assumed The proper
lions of a cloudburst and for time
tornado was feared, as dangerous
looking clouds gathered in the sky
and the wind blew at terrific rate.
Within an hour the rainfall reached
l.76 inches, which is the average rain
fall for the entire month there, After
an hour the storm ceased and it was
found that wires had been put out of
commission and streets and stores
inundated. Several business houses
on Fifth street were completely food
ed.
