Young People in Schools. Parents, tell us what you think of, this. Medical statistics are authority for the statement that a large per cent of children attending school are afflicted with curvature of the spine or other bodily imperfection which could be easily corrected by a simple method of physical exercise. And this brings to our mind a suggestion for local application. Why not let our school board, or teachers, prescribe such a course for the pupils in our public schools? Fifteen minutes a day of time could be easily found, and a careful system of physical exercise in which all pupils be required to participate would create a healthy circulation of the blood, develop the physique, correct mild forms of spinal curvature. and serve as a general physical tonic. And the mind would become clearer and brighter and in better form to sustain the strain of the classroom. Training the mind is essential, but a proper regard for the demands of the body is also necessary. That sluggish feeling which retards the advancement of so many pupils would gradually disappear under proper physical exercise, leaving both mind and body in a healthy state. With all deference to our school board and teachers, we make this as a suggestion. It is worth a trial.
