Hence some .hQ47?M means of invigoration and movement must be provided for them. Of course, the various outdoor sports, which the long and snowy winter of the Copper Country affords, are valuable to some extent. Such sports as skating, skiing, snowshoeing, and coasting benefit those who take advantage of them. The students, as a whole, receive more benefit from the gymnastic exercises, which are regular and espe- cially arranged by the school for them. Since we have no hall for the gymnastic purposes such a one has been rented by the College from the North Star , a Finnish Temperance Society, that owns a large and spa- cious hall. For certain reasons attendance of these exercises has not been made compulsory and therefore, as a whole, the stu- dents have not partaken of them. However, the interest shown by those, who have attended regularly, proves that the work of the enthusiastic leaders Miss L. Kangas and Mr. H. Mustonen has not been in vain. Twice a week both the boys and girls have had their practises. May the time soon come when we shall have our own well equipped -hall for gymnastics, so that our school may be better provided for helping its students to maintain their health. J. A. H. 38
