KEEPING YOUR BOYS FIJI
BY DIR. LORNE A. SUMMERS.
Director Of Armour Gymnasium.
First Part


10 should be the desire OF every
mother 10 have her children grow up
70 be strong and healthy, for without
health one cannot euioy the best there
is in life. The Ladder OF Success can
be climbed much easier with a strong
healthy robust body.
The greatest factor In the building
Of a boys character is the home in
nuenco and guidance OF his mother in
the carly period OF his life. Therefore,
it is the duty Of every mother to de-
vote time 10 the question Of how she
can better the conditions and environ
ment which surrounds the boy in his
carly life. Nature has provided every
one with the essentials necessary to
build vigorous manhood and these
natural elements are food, air, sun
shine, wgter and exercise.
After examining large number OF
boys | have come to tho conclusion
that there is an urgent need on the
part Of The mother to gain more
knowledge Of the proper preparation
and selection OF the food necessary for
the growing boy. 10 has been my
pleasure TO train boys and men OF all
ages and have paid particular attcn-
tion 10 the subject Of diet, not from
the theoretical, but from a practical
get-results" standpoint.
a diet for the growing boy should
be one which supplies all the neces-
sary food elements, at the same time
placing the least possible strain on the
digestive organs. The habitual eating
OF indgestible food will lead to al
most any disease. The safeguard Of
the body against disease is the "vital-
ity' The constant eating OF lndiges-
tible foods is one OF the quickest wars
to lower the vitality. Great care should
be taken by the mother TO serve tho
food in the proper combinations not
from the standpoint OF how they look
but rather how they will affect the
stomach. For instance, I have found
that large number OF mothers are
trying TO build healthy boys on a diet
Of white rolls and coffee for break
fast These boys on examination show
a general rundown condition and lack
the red blooded spirit a boy should
have. Another case was a young man
who was suddenly taken i'll from what
was FIRST thought 10 be Epilepsy, but
on careful examination was found TO
be an acute affection Of the central
nervous system, caused by trying TO
build health on a diet, such as fried
pork, pie and coffee for breakfast.
Now, while the mother dearly loved
her boy, she certainly was the means
OF paving the way for this boys fu-
ture sickness, as her knowledge OF a
strong, vigorous boy was practically
