THE ELEMENTARY PHYSICAL TRAINING COURSE HE whole nineteen of us took the course and we all were as enthusiastic at the last class as at the first. These words, spoken by a Form I man. express concisely, our appreciation for Mr. Bartlett's efforts on our behalf during the course. Any in- struction which can hold for four and a half months the enthusiasm of so sophisticated a group of students as the Form I men must. have the goods and this was no exception. Nineteen bonny young athletes tripped lightly into the Jarvis Collegiate gymnasium practically every Saturday morning for four and aihalf short months. And now would begin the practical work. Apparatus work, calisthenics. games. and club-swinging. all coming in quick succession. provided such strenuous work-outs that even we Form I stalwarts were often hard pressed for breath. The games in particular were popular. Who of us did not enjoy Swat the Coat, when Harry Henderson would chase Lorne Burkholder and vainly try to caress Lorne's elusive legs with the swatteril Who of us did not appreciate getting a first-rate crack at Tom Bradford and Edgar Shunk. running the gauntlet? I t was in the high jump that Ronald Froud convinced us that he was the human coil-spring and Art Wigg gave demonstrations lo prove that long legs were not a necessity for good high jumping. Hur weekly splash in the pool was every bit as enjoyable as our dry land activities. ln the shallow end tieorge Stewart. Frank Dingwall. and Doug. Nlct lhee would give an excellent representation of the far-famed Niagara whirlpool while those under the impression of being good swimmers splashed about in the deep end. Our theoretical work took place every Wednesday evening at the ,Normal School. Ilere Nlr. l5artlett's delightful habit ol' putting the men and girls together for most ol' the lectures converted all the lirst. class men to the doctrine of co-education. lt was very notice- able indeed how the more aggressive of the men appreciated this blending of the sexes. Another factor which aided in our en- joyment of these Vtiednesday evening sessions was the series ol' first-aid lectures by Dr. Hilliard. Dr. Ililliard's extensive use tml' developing questions as well as her witty vv ay of putting things. helped to make these lectures noteworthy. The course ended on Nlay IT. lt is expected that quite a number of us will take the Supervisor s Certificate in the summer. Iv ENNI-ITII Nl. Nltrlx ICNZIE. GIRL'S PHYSICAL EING offered an opportunity to reduce or gain those needful pounds. some thirty-three or four of the T.N.S. girls taking First Class Certificates enrolled in the Physical Training Course given at Jarvis Collegiate. Ivnder the capable instruction of Miss Bryans and Miss F enwick, miracles were accomplished. When the girls appeared in their green rompers and short socks they scarcely recognized themselves: and on Wednesday nights these costumes were a source of interest which was a constant diversion from lectures-to the boys at least. It was in the swimming that the chief miracle was wrought. From the class, of whom twenty-five could not swim a stroke, there was developed a school of mermaids-in grey cotton bathing suits- who could cross the tank without a tow rope. How the apparatus creaked and groaned under the strain! But it survived and so did the girls. although it took the united efforts of the class to get some of the more portly damsels over the much-abused horse. In spite of repeated injunctions. the girls TRAINING COURSE persisted in doing forward rolls sideways: but in time. all these mistakes were corrected due to much practice. many still' muscles and the helpful adviceeand shoves -of Niiss Fenwick and the 0.C.E. students. We learned many new dances but none suitable for the ballroom. By dint of much labour we finally were able to distinguish Tantali and the Danish Greeting dance: and to master the more intricate steps of the Irish Jig and the Highland Schottische. The one thing we never learned to do. however. was to march in a straight line. Dr. Hilliard's interesting VVednesday evening lectures in First Aid are worthy of mention: and we must not forget Nliss Campbell who so willingly played upon every request. This course was a novelty to most of us and not a girl is sorry that she gave up her Saturday mornings and II ednesday nights to the work. To our instructors we wish to express our appreciation and thanks for their tlntiring efforts on our behalf, Gmovs BI. Snsrnox.
