GAINESVILLE NOTES.

At last the enterprising element of
our various lodges has gained the
upper hand and brought the derelict
to see the wisdom of owning a pleas
ure park where picnics, baseball, etc.,
can be INDUCED in without waiting
the will of the other race as we now
have to do. The Odd Fellows, Ma
sons and Knights of Gideon have
Joined together and agreed to pur-
chase an eight-acre tract of ground
right on the car line and put it in
first-class order; so that within a
few weeks the colored citizens will
have as good a park as any in the
county. Another commendable step Is
the new hall which the Masons are
erecting at the corner of Ninth and
Main streets. We understand that it
Is to be three-story brick, with mod
ern equipments, and the money to
pay for the same is already in the
treasury. But the spirit of progress
Is not confined to the lodges. St.
Peter A. NJ. f. Church, in a recent
church meeting ordered the parsonage
remodelled and put in first-class con-
dition, and also authorized the trus-
tees and pastor to purchase a pipe
organ Negotiations for the same are
now in progress. Our citizens will
be pleased to learn that Prof. A. E.
Greenlaw, the noted choriSter and So
loist, Of Winnipeg, Canada, will sing
at st. Peter Sunday morning, just be-
fore the sermon. Prof. Greenlaw is
the director Of a choir in the white
baptist Church, of Winnipeg, and is
paid $1,000 for his services, which we
only mention that you may appreciate
the opportunity of hearing him sing
Sunday morning But you will not
hear him IL you are not on time. Rev.
D. A. Graham visited Nashville last
week and was the guest of Rev. D..
Boyd and family at the National Bap-
fist Publishing House. He says DR..
Boyd is a princely entertainer, and
the pleasure of meeting the aged
mother and queenly wife of this no
ble-hearted, broad-minded and intelli-
gent Baptist bishop" is worth many
days journey. Rev. E. M. Seymour,
Of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, has been
out of the city for the last two
weeks, attending the Sunday-School
Institute of which he is president, and
also visiting relatives. Revs. Richard
son and Dickerson, Of Nashville, we're
in the city last week. The former
has his eye on the vacant pulpit at
Fifth Ward and the latter was pros
pecting around St. Johns. We are
glad to see men of the mental calibre
and moral standing of these two young
men willing to fill these vacancies.
From what we can learn, they have
made a good impression on those
whom they met and have been in
vited to return. Rev. A. B. Patterson
and Mrs jamie Patterson visited
friends in the city last week. Mr.. P.
]. Barksdale, of Louisville, is in the
city visiting relatives and friends.
Miss Ida M. Griffin, Miss Lulottie Red
mond and Miss Maggie Polk spent last

Willie Buffet, of South GAINESVILLE,
has been very sick for some time

Physical Education.

What is considered one of the
most important features of the
Lewiston Normal School this
year has been the establishment
of the department of physical
education which had its begin
ming, at the opening of the
second quarter. While in the
past and up to the present time.
attention has been given to the
physical education of students,
there has never been an attempt
to teach the principles of physi-
cal education and turn out stu
dents who would be specialists
along this line. The class form
ed consists of a goodly number,
and they are receiving daily in
struction in practice and theory
of physical education at the
hands of Miss Dorothy Cocker,
late of the Teachers College,
Columbia University. The i'm
portance of this work in educa-
ton has become more pronounc-
ed and there is yearly demand
from all sections of the country
for teachers who are capable and
efficient along lines of this kind.
Not only are the students given
instruction in physical education
as is applicable to young men and
women, but the playground work
comprises an important feature
of this education.
Here in Idaho, the county sup
erintendents and local educators
generally. concede in order to
obtain the best scholastic results
in primary, grammar, or high
school work, there must be GER
tain periods given over to the
healthful and vigorous exercise.
To teach them how to play anC
get the most out of playing is
the problem of those engaged If
playground work. President
Black of the Lewiston State
Normal school feels, in establish
ing this department from which
teachers capable and efficient t.
teach will be graduated, he il
simply keeping apace with thu
demands of a growing state, ant
all who so graduate will fint
ample field for their special worl
in Idaho.
