OF course none Of these undesirables would

Physical Edueatioa anl- The Ilnd.
It is unfortunate that there ace
still 90 many poorly qualified school
teachers and principals who fail to
grasp the significance Of physical
training ~ . fundamental part Of
the mental grpwth. But It ID more
unfortunate that there are 20 many
parents who imagine that physical
training is more or less q fad pro-
mulgated by . few fanatics on pure
ly theoretical grounds. The1s mis-
conceptions Of the value Of physi-
cal education no doubt account for
the fArcical way In which this de-
partment Of education = squeezed
into the school curricula In some
backward cities and towns. and for
the inferior equipment Of tho ply
steal education department in pub
lie school systems OF that class. 1t
10 hard for an illiterate to under
stand the value Of . knowledge Of
Latin or physics or geometry. For
like reasons 1t ID hard for the
health-ignorant, the physically un-
educated. to appraise the value Of
gymnasium and other physical ex-
ercisss In the general education of
. boy or girl. Wherefore the re-
luctance and superiority manifest
In this new-fangled branch Of pop
ular education.
An observer instinctively recog-
nizes IN idiot or imbecile by the
latter's physical behavior, the un-
ruiy conduct Of the muscles.
The nervous system, including
the brain, Is developed by educa-
ton from the hour of birth. In the
first few years the mother, the
nurse, the father or others inter-
ested in the child conduct the 6du-
cation. The child learns to walk,
to talk. to do various little things
which require education Of various
brain functions. At s to s the child
is placed under more expert In
structions or at least under in
structors who will devote more
time to tho child's education. Nov,
mark we'll that up to that time the
ch,ld's education has been prin-
cipally physical. Yet the physical
education has obviously developed
the child's brain.
The order OF development Of the
nervous system in man is from the
fundamental to the accessory por-
tons. Education which attempts to
| reverse that process is foredoomcd
to failure. The fundamental por-
tons Of the nervous system con-
troll the great muscles Of the body;
the accessory portions control the
fine muscles used in writing, piano
playing and other fine arts. TIE
purpose Of physical training in the
public schools Is not to grow I'm.
mense packs Of muscles nor to de.
velop athletes. Its purpose is te
develop parts Of the body which ar
weak or ill-n0urished. to put thu
heart and lungs in harmoniou.
working order. to Discipline ever,
