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."

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."

To the Parents
In ,wir last : issue we talked about
"sins of omission." ; "Let us now eorit
alder "fclns of commission." 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.

imparting knowledge not only in na-
