’■Best W alkers Make Best Citizens,"
Says Mayor of New York.
today there are no less than 8,000
hiking club* In G reater New York,
with a total membership of more than
a quarter of a million men and wom
en, who are keeping themselves in the
pink of condition and experiencing the
real Joy of living by getting regularly
out ln*o the open country with no oth
er m ean, of locomotion tiian their God
given legs.
The city of New York ha* taken offi
cial notice of the movement. On three
oicn 'io n s recently Mayor liy la n has
congratulated the hoys and girls of the
public schools upon their enthusiasm
In taking up the new sport of hiking
In his dedication of the great new pub
lic playground in the Bronx the other
day Mayor liy lan extolled the athletic
tendencies of the boy* and girls and
Impressed upon them that there was
no better or more profitable way in
which they could pass their vacations
nnd utilize their holiduys than by the
excursion* Into field and forest of their
w alking dubs. He gave the same
m essage to the Amateur Athletic Un
ion of Brooklyn a few days later, and
wl •'* i d u ll of Fast Side hoys and girls
visited him at city hall preparatory to
a hike to the tomb of Roosevelt at
Oyster Bay he assured them that the
host w alkers among them would make
tlie beai citizens.
Walk and Bs Well

the walking game Is I>r. Royal S.
Copeland, city health commissioner
“The benefit to heulth and the safe

walks." said Dr Copeland In an In
terview, "are too apparent to apeak
of them If one takes long w alks alone
It Is well, for he w alks the road of
lienlth. hut If lie takes long w alks In
company it Is better for he adds the
tonic of companionship to his exercise
W alking Is the one form of exercise in
which there is the minimum risk of
otrerd. Ing It.
In short, I consider
walking the most beneficial of all exer
