clusion In the mind of the writer, for
the physical instructor is called upon to
mold the healthy body that is to con-
lain the healthy mind.
One without the other, no matter
how grand either may be, gives but an
imperfect man! During the years the
pupils mind is being raine to think
properly there is no thing so wonder
ful in clearing the brain, and more
conducive. to quick thought than the
moderate exercise of athletics.
Moderate is the all important word.
I. Is the word that stamps the physical
instructor as an important cog in the
educational system; heretofore school
children either had n~aphazard athletic
exercise, none at all, or too much.
Now many schools have their physi-
cal instructors, who insist as far as
they can on having all the pupils take
just a right amount Of exercise, the
reluctant, the over anxious, or the
careless. At a glance, therefore, one
can see how important is a physical
instructor from an intellectual or a
physical standpoint.
There is still mother feature of the
physical instructors work that is lit
lie thought of. Under the strain of
competition, either on the track, fe d
diamond or gridiron the hot-heade1
youth is liable to lose his head, and
the youth that would TAX undue and
unfair advantage of an opponent
grows. worse. This is where the
physical instructor of training
comes in. He sees these most
important faults and at once sets
about to correct them. Full success
follows his efforts very often but he
always brings about some good re-
suits in the lad. Much of this also
applies to the girls who need physical
training in this age of speed n
nerves" BY ali means let us advance
the. standing of the physical instruct
ors, not keep them where they are, nor
send them back. They are here to stay.
