that now lark in the struggle to

doubtless too late to reform those
who have been saturated with the
current notions that athletics are
synonymous with a fight for supre-

Fundamentally ersdicated. The play
of children represents the truest j.

execution of movement and mild
rivalry for perfection can be as
sociated with forms of athletics of
increasing difficulty in performance.
To develop a graded sequence from
the easiest games of early youth to
the vigorous complex feats of mid
die life is a scheme well worth con-
sideration on part of those TO whose
care the physiology of exercise is
