At last the big draw- back of our schools development is to be overcome-there is to be a new gym- nasium built this summer, a gym- nasium such as will meet our require- ents of athletic work. Back in the days of Sports, great at- tention was paid toward the growth and training of the body. A strong physique counted for everything then, for the country was hard and cruel- there were wars continually, mighty conquests were made on surrounding countries. At this time, weak children were exposed, on the mountain tops, to die. This cruel practice, however, was necessary, for with their little weak bo- dies they would be but drags on the government, and later, when they had reached mature life, they would be un- fit for active combat. So today, we find Nature making a selection of our people, weeding out the physically unfit, and destroying them, keeping the strong, for they are able to carry on. Every few years some great sickness sweeps over our country, kill- ing people by hundreds of thousands, maiming others for life, destroying the peace of all communities, and upsetting our business and commercial world. Now at vigorous constitution can withstand these menaces, in fact, it fights them very actively, and puts them to route. A vigorous constitu- tion of this type can be secured in the gymnasium, for there the proper and sufficient exercise is provided, coupled with active mind work, in such games as basketball, and volley ball.
