A Definite PHYSICAL EDUCA.
TON

Roofing" at a baseball game or
standing about, stamping ones feet
to keep warm, at a football contest
doesn't constitute definite physical
education.
The American Legion proposes to
agitate for some improvement along
this line. 1t finds that adequate
physical education in youth would
have prevented the disqualification
of more than a million recruits for
service when the war was calling.
National Commander Quinn, as is
usual under such conditions. expects
to secure some help from Congress.
He sees that from a national source
should come a definite plan for all
the states. also that if this is to be
put into effect at an early date ma
tional funds will have to be supplied.
The cause is a good one; the idea
OF securing centralized stimulation
to the various units which go to
make up the union of the states is
cogent, but when it comes to appro-
priating money for this definite edu-
cation, money that should be supplied
directly by those directly to be bene-
fitted, plenty Of time should be had
to think it over. One dollar raised
by the federal government, passing
through the almost innumerable
hands 1t would before reaching its
destination. would be sadly diminish
cd by the time it arrived. Nsverthe-
less the plan for better physical edu-
cation should be attended to.
The so-called athletic sports do not
anord 1t to the rank and file, only to
the few and sometimes to the injury
OF those.
Among the needs mentioned are
the following:
"Ths hrst step to be taken Is to
provide a general training in physical
education for every classroom teach
or 20 that she may carry on daily the
program with occasional aid from n
special physical education teacher.
The second fundamental need IL for
the training and employment Of a
sumcient number Of special teachers
OF physical education to supervise
ana aid the work of the classroom
teachers. The third need Is for ade-
quate indoor and outdoor space and
sumcient simple equipment"

1.-THE Raphael Book" an account
of the life of Raphael Santi of Ur-
bino and his place in the develop
ment of art, together with q descrip-
ton of his paintings and frescos, by
Frank Roy Fraprie, S. NJ, F. r. p.
s., author of "The Art of the Munich
Galleries." with 81 reproductions in
color and in duagravure of Raphaers
most characteristic works.
Tender. gracious and beautiful" is
the phrase employed by Mr.. Fraprie
to describe both the personal char
acter and the art Of Raphael. The
author points out that thero is no
more loyable character in the history
OF art than Raphael; though born In
humble home in a small town, he
made friends of the greatest men of
his time. and became an ornament to
the court of Rome.
Raphaers pictures portray, of
choice. the most beautiful emotions
OF the human heart, mother love, d.
vine aspiration, chaste and lovely
scenes. Scenes of violence repealed
him. He brought the Mother of
Christ forth from the formal archaic
ism OF medieval pictorial representa-
ton and dared to portray her as a
will always touch the hearts of men.
These facts Mr.. Fraprie brings out
In the Introduction to his new and
valuable volume.

author tells of the birth and early
life Of Raphael. of his life in the city

settlers after standing siege of sew

Frenchman'S Bay fishermen in
common with all lobstermen along
the coast, or that general section of
it, are feeling keenly the bait short
age which has caused some of the
lobster men to pull in their traps and
close the season. according to a dis
patch from Southwest Harbor. The
shortage is according to many state
ments, unaccountable. Some declare
there are plenty of herring, the main
supply of bait, but that they do not
come in; that the selfsame weather,
practically an uninterrupted season
of fishing and lobster catching, since
the first day of September, a period
usually interrupted by storms, which
has given the lobstermen so great q
boon, has kept the herring out of the
shallower waters. Some claim that
matters will practically equalize
themselves: that the price, advancing
seven cents above the usual rate, on
account of bait shortage, will make
up for the ending or partial ending
Of the work now. The State of affairs
has led to much discussion of lobster
legislation. and emphasizes the fact
that there Is close time on French
mans Dav Holsters in July and Au-
gust, the while the treasured
crustaceans may be taken over in
Iluehill Bay, at that time. Anyway,
the "fishy, come fishy and bit my

Is a serious one. This means, indeed,
