IN ANCIENT ATHENS it was believed a Well--balanced education should combine training of mind and body. Later, education departed from this philosophy and centered chiefly on the mental.

At Roosevelt, in line with this philosophy, we have developed a broad program of courses and activities based on the idea that a good education should include the train- ing of body and hands as well as mind. Through these activities pupils learn to build stage sets, produce plays, produce ballets, publish newspapers, take photographs, design posters, design costumes, prepare meals, keep accounts, play instruments, direct or- chestras, build boats, participate in athletics and acquire many other skills. There is much evidence to indicate that the skills and manual dexterity acquired in these school activities continue to be useful in adult life, both vocationally and avocationally.
