fast Mayslick five on the Minerva

puted to be the best team in the coun-
ty, will go over to Minerva determin-
ed, If possible, to break Minerva's
chain of victories, and thus clinch for
themselves the basket ball honors of
the season.
The Minerva team has the backing
of everybody in that community, and
will undoubtedly have out the largest
crowd of the season to see the boys
"tie up" with the Mayslick laddies

be watched with interest by all fol
lowers of the sport, because the Mays
lick-Minerva series will in a measure
determine the championship of the
county.

o'clock, and those who attend need en-
tertain no fear of a dull contest
There'll be pep from start to finish.

PHYSICAL TRAINING
IS ADOPTED IN the
SCHOOLS COURSE
Minerva Consolidated School Is First
In County to Adopt Regular Ply
steal Training Course.

The Minerva Consolidated Schools,
of which John Hurst Adams Is Super
intendent, has taken a forward step by
adding a regular course In Physical
Training to it's curriculum In the up
per grades and in high school, and Su-
pervised Play in the lower grades.
Following a visit of Mr.. L. F. Ter
foss, District Secretary of the Y. M.
C. A, to the Minerva Schools recently,
when he gave lecture on the value of
physical education and a demonstra-
tion of what could be accomplished
through regular physical training, the
Minerva school authorities mapped
out a course in physical education,
gave 1t place in the days program,
and the results accomplished have
fully justified the action taken.
Mr.. Mcclellan Galbraith, Director
of Athletics in the Minerva High
School was put in charge of the boys
work, and Miss Harriet Haughaboo
! and Mrs. John Hurst Adams were as
signed as physical directors for the
girls. From twenty-one months ex-
perience in the service of Uncle Sam
overseas, in addition to his training In
college, Mr.. Galbraith is admirably
equipped for His work as Physical Di-
rector, andthe ladies'in charge Of the
girls work have both had special
training in this line of work in Nor
NAL School.
The regular setting-up exercises
used in the U. S. Army are embodied
in the course given the Minerva boys,
and the same exercises with certain
notifications are given to the girls.
The physical training work is popu-
lar with all the students, and results
in the building of better bodies are al
ready in evidence.
