ART AND SPORT

France. it strikes us is one of tho few countries in the world which has no native or even favorite athletic sport. as America has baseball anE boxing, Spain bull fighting. England cricket and football. Germany and Scandinavia gymnastics, Japan wrest- ling and jiu jitsu. Cuba pelota- Cana da hockey and lacrosse. Horse racing cock fighting. coursins, polo, fox hunt ing. tennis, field athletics, motor and yacht racing have found only limited favor with the French people, who cer- tainly are not a sporting nation. Sport ing nations do not. as a rule rank high in artistic achievement, as N. Cochin hints rightly. England and Am erica, leaders in sports. are far behind France Italy, Germany, Austria, Hol- land, Russia as producers of truly great creative art.-Musical Courier.
