Srpartment nf Pjgsiral IcJiufatimt Physical Education should give an experience in, and should imbue the student with a love for, some form of healthful physical activity for its own sake, and for its practical value. Certain games, like tennis, volley ball, and play-ground ball can fulfill a mission in every person’s life. They should be played well into middle life, when those more strenuous and body building exercises have ceased to be practical. By keeping this objective in view. Physical Education can give every student something that prepares him for life, and can equip him with something that he can use as a means of keeping physically efficient in after life. tumnr

 Henry Walter John B. A. A. B. University of Wisconsin, 1910. Dryartnuntt of (Unmmrrrr To-day society is beginning to realize that a business failure means a social loss, because the service rendered it by such an organization is discon- tinued. The Normal School is the logical place to prepare teachers of commerce who will have a broad knowledge of business, who will be capable of organ- izing the forces for efficient production and who will know how to finance most economically and be able to determine various industrial policies. This in short is the aim of the Department of Commerce to help meet the demand for efficient commercial teachers who will instill into our boys and girls that which will make for better captains of industry and citizenship, a debt justly owed to society.
