open to her. Tennis has already become popular. In this game the player has the advantage of breathing pure, fresh air while gaining grace and light- ness of movements. Some object to it, however, as an exercise too violent, while others contend that it develops but one side of the body, the right arm only being used. But it is in winter that regular exercise of some sort seems most neces- sary. Then the days are generally so cold that, ordinarily, girls prefer a comfortable, cozy seat before a fire to a walk in the cold, crisp air. Skating might become popular if, instead of depending on the uncertain ice to be found on the river, a regular skating pond were established. This is both a healthy and delightful exercise and does much to counteract the evils of a steam heated room. What a boon a properly equipped gymnasium would be l There the fret and worry of lessons, and the petty troubles of ever-day life might be forgotten in the exhilaration of healthy exercise. A step in the right di- rection was taken when the gir1's gymnasium class was organized. Enough cannot be said of the kindness and patience of Mrs. John P. Everett, who tirelessly, painstakingly and skillfully drilled the girls in graceful movements and evolutions. And with what eagerness, both because of the pleasure and the benefit to be derived therefrom, did the girls attend the classes, en- deavoring to show by earnest attention their keen appreciation of the in- struction received and sincere gratitude to their instructor for her interest in them. Basket ball seems to be a near approach to an ideal exercise. This is because it strengthens all the muscles while it cultivates swiftness of thought, alertness of action, and keenness of eye-the latter being shown by the baskets that are often made at long range. A sharply contested game brings out powers of the body that the rou- tine of every-day work can never do. The flinging aside of any thought as to how she looks, or if she is doing the proper thing, goes to the root of all feminine pride. Any inclination toward morbidness must be quickly thrown aside, because the rules of the game which demand a certain con- centration of mind and whole-souled sincerity of effort. Basket ball also provides for team play and thus a player is not inde- pendent in thought as in tennis, but she must be constantly on the alert in order to respond to any movement made by her partner. When in the near future the city of Adrian through the Board of Educa- tion shall deem it advisable to give the students of the High School the advan- tage of a manual training school, it is to be hoped that there will also be ar- ranged a gymnasium in which the girls will have an abundant opportunity for physical development which will strengthen them both in mind and body and thus serve to develop a stronger type of womanhood.
