It was at that time very Weak and very of the boys were acquainted with the kinds of work that that department puts on. Since that time the Boys Physical Training department has progressed in every department of the courscg including marching, calisthenics, hori- zontal bars, horse, and Work with the Indian clubs and dumb bells. Pyra- mid building is one of the big parts of this course and a pyramid club was organized ia year ago. Since that time there have been several demonstra- tions of their skill at various programs. Boys Physical Training has become one of the best courses in the High School, and the boys arc exceedingly fortunate in having an instructor as capable as Mr. Flug. lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll''lil'll'l'lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllilllllllllllllllllwmllul ''l'llllllllllllllllllllll' 1 9 2 3 ' 1 1'lllllmlllllllllillllillulllllllllllllllllllllllllwllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll l ll
