American people, in the opinion of Cor
don Law, physical director Of the local

announced today that he had perfected
a system Of physical culture that would
enectually prevent it in growing youth.
He declared that he would make his sys-
tenn public within a few days. In general
it is canculated to strengthen the spinal
vertebrae, the nerves that radiate from
the spine and the muscles Of the neck.
Begins With Children.
IF nervousness is to be checked in the
coming generation said Mr.. Law. 1--WE
must start with the children. which is
the reason that I have formulated these
exercises for use In the T. NJ. c. A. boys
department.
1.-THE exercises are all aimed at building
up the spinal column and the muscles VI
the neck. for the reason that these parts
of the body include the largest part OF
the fundamental nervous tracts. II We
keep the spinal column and the neck In
good shape nervousness will practically
disappear"
Mr.. Law said that the exercises would
be. included at once in the regular phys
ical work of the Y. M. c. A. boys de-
