HINTS ON HEALTH AND EXERCISE
(By Mac Levy of BabyIon)

sport in which American women considered it proper to indulge. True, many women rode horseback. but that was more to get from where they were to where they were not than as an exercise. Nowadays there is hard 1y an American college or school for girls and women fhere gymnastics and outdoor sports are not encour- aged, and it is probable that much larger proportion of feminine students take part in such activities than of male students. Girls indulge in sports for health and pleasure more than for the ambition to win, which ambition characterizes to too great extent the more competitive athletic activi- ties of college boys.

Art and Muscle.

The campaign recently conducted by 2 New York newspaper to have the Metropolitan Art Museum opened in the evenings. so that those employed during the day might have an oppor- tunity to enjoy it's treasures, shouI d appeal to physical culturists. as well as those who advocate the innovation on intellectual and esthetic grounds. The relation between art and muscle, and the development of an apprecia- ton of both, is closer than it may seem at first thought The sane and normal mind finds it's fit habitation in a sound, healthy and beautiful body What greater incentive and f1asDdra- don to physical improvement and we'll rounded muscular development could be found than a study of the great works of the master sculptors ana artists Of the past and present? Artists do not choose weddings for their
 models but strong, perfectly formed, magnificent and virile specimens or manhood and wornanhood- The sclup- tors of ancient Greece found models in the youths who participated Tn the Ofy1npian games, and, in turn, the atnletes were encouraged to seek a roB1er and more perfect physical de-. x-eToprnent by the work of the sculp- tors Arc and athletics inspired each otlaer in that distant period near Greece was great During my experi- ence of eighteen years as a trainer and body-Builder I have come across many young men who have been =i5a med into undertaking the. task of bodily development by odious conn., E,arfsonsy between their own insignifi- cant physfques and the perfect sculp- fured figures shown at museums and
