' In Equal Measure. FTER all the main thing Is health health of body and health of mind." This truth Is . axiomatic with us, yet we lose sight of It In the stress of modern living. Let us not forget it for one , moment, however, in dealing with the children. Physical training must go,slde by side with mental train ing. The curriculum of the school must be fitted to the two-fold need of the growing race. " The complexity of the present day life has had1 its effect on the schools; the course of study is so crowded with "isms" that the training of the body Is either slighted or entirely neglected in many institutions. Go Into the aver age school and you will find number less pupil lisUet" and drowsy from lack of exercise and many Imperfectly developed from habitual 111 posture. What doth it profit our boys and girls If they gain all the arts and all the sciences and lose the power and Joy that come of physical well being? Physical culture Is a broad subject. It has as many phases as mental cul ture. Various systems have been worked out, but for the school a system Is wanted that will comprehend the best points In aH methods, a graduated series of exercise that wli. make -for all around physical development The Swedish movements beget power and en durance, the DeJsarte grace and har mony In bodily , motions, organized games beget alertness, quickness and Independent of action; folk dancing, be sides giving grace gives Joy and de velops' a new power of expression through rythmic motion; walking ex pedltlons are useful in getting the he- It of correct posture, refreshment ,and enthusiasm . in the natural life. For year our city ha bad experts working out a system of physical train ing adapted for school use, yet, a year ago, it was found that 60 per cent of the pupils not only did not standor walk correctly but .had no conception b correct carriage. This was an appal- ing state of affairs and systematic and earnest Instruction was begun at once; at the end of six months 90 per cent of the school children had acquired hab Us of proper tanding and walking. Folk dancing was made a. prominent feature Of the school work. In fact It Is compulsory. Besides th Tegular class work, teacher all over, th city gave their time voluntarily after school hours to th teaching of the dances. The af ter school classes are called ."clubs." Teacher and pupils alike are enthusl astlo over the work" and spend many happy hour together In this way. , In several "parts of the city Instruc tion' classes In dancing were organised for the teacher that they might carry on this work intelligently and with fresh Inspiration. The work proved rnoHtl unci wiiii b bii . vy aoj Bviuencro, . oy . In continually : large, attendance,. The teacher themselves, found real loy In the folk dance even after" a day of strain In th class, room, and surely that was a true test. Imagine 200 teachers at onoe going through the puiallng fig ures of th energetio Morris Dance of Merrle Old ; England oV to the strains of ; St -Patrick' day. with heads his-h in air and arm akimbo, performing in true Irish fashion, th sprightly steps of the Jig. The graceful and masy Tarantella, and ' the" wild Russian Ciardas war. J studied In turn a well as th ever popu- r nigniand Fling, the pretty and quaint Swedish dance and me noisy dances cf the Vaterland. , The movement to make folk dancing i-tm. ui ocnooi ure has been tried and has not been found wanting in results, so there la no doubt that the work will go on and that counties children will continue to find Jcy and benefit In the primitive dances cf the nrimitivA r,n. Pies. t tt tt Walking Clubs. Walking clubs have been formed too, and teachers and classes tro nn tr.mn. lng tour out from the crowded metro polls Into the open fields to enjoy the freedom of meadows and shady lanes. On Saturdays these excursions lasl all day. With some. of . the pupils of the crowded sections, the Myra Kelley dis trict, for example, this Is their first introduction to nature's blessed "out-of-doors." H K What to Teach the Boy. Teach the boy to be true to his word and his work; to face difficulties with courage and cheerfulness; to form no friendships that can bring him Into de grading associations; to respect other peoples convictions; to reverence wo manhood; to live a clean life in thought and word as well as in deed. Teach him that true manliness always com mands success; that the best things In life are not those that can be bought with money; that there can be no com promise with honesty and dishonesty; that the virtue of punctuality and po liteness are excellent things to culti vate; show him that criticism can never hurt him if false they cannot UhlL!inlB"-toA ls wantln in manly character and If true they are useful in showing him his weak points."

It wa shown that sins of omission resulted from not performing those act and liv ing that life which our ponsciousnes of their ri gh teousnes recognised. ; w ' - A tn of commission is that of doing those. thing and living that life which our consciousness Informs us is wrong. If this Is all there-is to sinning then it resolves itself intb a matter of good end evil and our desire to do right and our ability to exercise our rational vo lition in so doing. But It is evident that human beings are the arbiters, of their own fate but they have the power of choice that acoordlngt to their knowl edge they have the opportunity of con forming to the truth they have dis cerned or, of .disobeying them. No man can disobey an order that he has not heard. By his failure to hear It the consequences may be a disastrous In re sults a If he bad heard It and .delib erately refused to obey it' But that would not be "sinning." . But, if a man hear the order, recog nizes the authority and deliberately vio lates It either by omitting to comply with It or by acting in defiance of It, he has "sinned." sinned against th one to whom he recognises that his loy. alty and obedience Is due and ha sinned against himself. Thi ft quite a dif ferent view, of "sinning" to what the religion teach. Jn them where It Is taught that sin can he forgiven and an offended Deity can be propitiated the incentive to right action "is not placed on so high a plane. Now, the authority, which man recog nises the one through whom the or der eome, is God, or. nature synony mous terms 6r perhaps better atlll, the Great Intelligence -and it is when man recognizes thi power and becomes aware of Us law that he is able either to refrain from their evasion or viola tion or rationally conform to them. All of which mean that If we have to live Intelligently and fulfill - the purpose of. our creation we must obtain knowl edgeand knowledge of ourselves. Did not the great Master ay "Seek and ye hall find, knock. and It shall be opened unto you," and It is for us to seek with in ourselves and be conscious of bur high mission, that we may ally our selves with the Great Intelligence, whose mills grind slowly but exceeding small. ' Nature is a voiceless teacher, she speaks to us an unmistakable language. TV nn.rnta w Vi k.v. k i .. imparting knowledge not only in na- " ""em way or Demg and doing, but by verbal instruction, can point the way to our children, assure them we have "biased the way" and inspire them with a desire to follow and for thomsnivca work out their own destiny.
