“ Infantile Athletics” was the subject
of a paper read at n meeting of tho sec­
tion on pediatrics of the New York
Academy cf Medicine by Dr. Henry
Ling Taylor.
“ When one considers tho important
physiological effects of mnscular activ­
ity,” said Dr. Taylor, “ it is apparent
that the human organism is imperfectly
adapted to a sluggisii or sedeutaiy ex­
istence. Medical practice, at least iu
the cities, is largely made up of disor­
ders which aro distinctly traceable to
the neglect cf proper exercise. Primi­
tive man, being obliged to hunt and
light iu order to exist, was ot necessity
athletic, and now that the struggle lias
iu a measure been shifted from brawn
to brain, men still find it advantageous
to train their muscles in sports and
games. When tho important relatiou of
muscular uctivity to nutrition, respira­
tion, circulation and elimination is re­
called, this wholesome instinct eusily
finds its vindication. Every muscular
mass is in an important souse a supple­
mentary heart and a supplementary
kidney. The lungs aro never thorough­
ly ventilated, except through vigorous
exercise. Moreover, the nervous and
muscular elements are so intimately
related ns to form practically but one
system. Education and progress come
through motor and sensory expeiience—
that if, largely through muscular activ­
ity. Growtii itself is influenced by exer­
cise.
“ Dr. H. G Beyer of the United States
Navul academy has shown that not only
do thoso cadets who take systematic
gymnastic training largely exceed thoso
who do not iu average gain iu weight,
Jung capacity and strength, but that
their averago gain iu height during the
four years is grenter by over an inch.
Tho cadets range iu ugn from IU to 31
years, and it is probable that appropri­
ate exerciso would have similar if not
greater effect iu children.
“ I l is even more true of the infant
than of tho adult that tho kind and de­
gree of habitual muscular activity w ill
largely determine tho structure of the
body uud the tonoof the mind and char­
acter. It is more true because the in­
fant is moro incomplete and more pins-
tio. Tbo newborn babe is, us it were,
but half made. Its organs are imma­
ture, its activities restricted, and they
w ill never attaiu full and harmonious
development except under the stimulus
of use. It b not without sigiiiticuuce
that exerciso is begun five mouths or
moro before birth, and thut the infant
appears upon the scene with n kick aud
a cry. Though umoug the most helpless
of nature's children, tho infant comes
with considerable training aud some re­
markable muscular endowments, as, for
iustanoe, tbo well known ability to sup­
port itself by grasping, a horizontal rod.
Iu waking hours the small limbs pruo-
tica constant and vigorous movements,
superficially aimed, but important iu
producing tissue chuuges fundamental
to nutrition, us well us iu furnishing
sensory and motor experience necessary
to mental and bodily growth, develop­
ment and power.
“ At 8 months cf ago tho baby finds
its hands and begius to rencli out for
and bold objects; at 8 or 0 months it
creeps; at 13 cr 14 it walks, and so
progresses from simple to complex pur­
posive movements and to snoh adjust­
ments as pat it in morecomfortublo uud
intimate relation with its surroundings.
"Since tho infant has such ample en­
dowments and spontaneous impulses to
wholesome activity, our first and most
important care must be to avoid undue
interference or repression. It is interest­
ing to observo what pains some uncivi­
lised mothers take that the wrappings
end appliunccs needful to protect the
baby shall not prevent freedom of move­
ment. In describing Indian infancy and
the use of tho portable cradle Mrs.
Fletcher says: ’It is a mistakeu notion
that the child ia kept up all the
time. Every day the baby is bathed
and placed on a robe or blauket to kick
and crow to its heart's content, but
when the family cares call the mother
away he is put into the cradle, with his
nruia free to play with the many bright
beads that liuug from the hook which
encircles tbo head of this little portable
bed. ’
“ What a refreshing contrast to tho
insipid experiences of our ovenlrapcd,
uvtrcoddled youngsters. Still, rough ex­
orcises aro not required for civilised ba
hies. They w ill attend to their own
gymnastics, if not prevented. It is evi­
dent that tlie movements of the trunk
and limbs should uot be impelled with
wrsppings. Baby's activity sliou'.l have
free play. At the start we are co u fro u t-
ed with the conventional bellyband; if
tightly adjusted, it must exert injnri
ons pressure; if too loosely adjusted, it
gets displaced and rolls into a contract-
lug string. When adjusted with a prop-
• r degree of snuguess, it may be innoea-
• us, but do its beuefits outweigh its dis-
advantages’ The clothing should be
loose aud simple, flttiug u successive
layers, so that all can be pnt ou at once.
"When it comes to artificial exorcises
for the baby, there are few prevalent
among ns that seem calculated to help
him. Monotonous jarriug, «baking aud
trotting are undesirable, if uot harmful
When tho idea Is once grasped that n
good, hearty cry is an admirable cheat
expander, there is lets temptation to
this form of parental indulgence, for it
w ill usually lie found thut the baty is
trotted for the sake of the trotter rather
than for Its own. Peevishness is of
«•ourse undesirable. If due to iiidigeatiou
or other physical ailmeuts, the buby
