The Victorian girl according to the
English authorities, was a much better
mother than the modern feminine
athlete, because she wisely conserved
her store of vital and nervous energy
for the crisis of motherhood instead of
wasting Ii daily on the tennis court,
golf course or hockey field. This sur
prlslng assertion seems to have made
wheye there is now strong move
ment for milder school athletics for
! ygirls.
But American physical culture ex-
perts, speaking for and TO American
girls, have little sympathy with the
Britishers. Most of them are inclined
to say absolute tommyrot," and thus
dismiss the subject.
But when one discusses the subject
he-or she-is apt to talk very
much like DR.. Dudley Sargent. He Is
physical director of Harvard. But he
is also head of the Sargent School
of Gymnastics In Cambridge, Mass,
which indicates that he probably
knows considerable about athletics
and girls, Incldently, the photographs
reproduced herewith-with the excep-
tlon of that of Mola Bjurstedt NAL
lory, who is put in for good measure
are Of girls doing athletic stunts at
his school. DR.. Sargent says:
- 1T is unfortunate that such state.
ments have Just enough truth In them
so that they cannot be contradlcted
In their entirety. 1t Is true, of course,
that many women do have trouble at
childbirth, but II is unfair to say that
1t is because of athletics. Athletic
training Is ideal for women; II de-
velops just the muscles of the alb
domen and the lower part of the back
that she Is compelled to use In this
crisis.

Such women are tight, tense. keyed |

There Is n vast difference, you know"
DR. II. N. McCracken, president of
ypssar college, thinks that the objec-
)n of tn English educators to ath-
letlcs Is based upon an lnferiority
complex. Victorian ladies have lately
had to endure more scornful pity fN:o
their modern granddaughter. Their
waists were plnched, they have been
told, their minds inactive, their clothes
were clumsy and they were physically
weak twitness the faintng habit for
lack of fresh air and exercise. "Ah."
they reply at last, "but we were bet.
