Physical Training of Chilton.
Continued from first page
tified by the healthy revival of which
baye spoken, a revival that has been
helped on by the sensible utterances
of physicians on the subiect. When
one well known doctor says, "I have
often given bicycling the preference as
a mode of exercise above horseback
riding and boating ; with an early start
in childhood it might take the place
of gymnastics through life," the pa
rent who has thought seriously ot the
physical development of his sons and
daughters feels that it is perhaps well
to look into this matter of bicycling in
some otrjer iignt in an tuai ui u
amusmetit.
To get the full benefit from a bicy
cle for a growing boy or girl, the
wheel should not Le bought at ran
dom. At one time the acquisition ot a
bicycle sank to pretty much the same
standing as one of the "give-away-with-a-ponnd-of
tea" prizes. The market
was flooded with cheap wheels and the
getting one was a sort of catch-as-catch
can business. But we have changed
all that. Now, when a boy or a girl is
to have a wheel, it is selected to tit.
What will do for one will not answer
for another and the makers ot wheels
have learned that the worst service
they can do their products, is to send
out one that is not entirely satisfactory.
No longer can one buy a bicycle from
a responsible firm on the hit-or-mies
plan.
Here some one win rise witn a taie
of he bought a wheel for his boy and it
did not last him any length of time at
all. "He gave it no more wear than
gave mine, but it was so poorly built
that it went to pieces before be had
had it a month. That cured me Jof
high-priced wheels! Get a boy
cheap one and let him use that up, and
then get him another."
That principle may have applied
once, but- its day is oyer. The modern
avinile bicycles produced by a first
class house are strongly built, to meet
the knock-about usage of the younger
generation. They are made of the
game high-grade material and receive
the same care in the making as the
adult models. As a matter of course,
if a boy is absolutely reckless with
them he is able to ruin them as he
Is anything else of value but instruct
ion in takmzdecent care ot bis goods
and chattels is, or should be, a part of
his training.
The wheel purchased, the boy should
be taught a few things about it. For
one thing, that it is not necessary for
htm to ride doubled up over the handle
bars when he is making an ordinary
trip for business or for pleasure. It is
entirety possible for him to get over
ground at a good rate while. he is in an
absolute upright position and if this is
impressed upon him and he follows
rules he will grow straighter because
of his bicycle riding. I have seen this
successfully tried with more than one
boy. Next, he should be taught that
it he wishes to bend over in scortchlng
he does not injure himself so long as
be leans straight forward, bending at
the waist. It is the crouching posi
tion that stoops and rounds the should
ers.
Moderation in the use of the wheel
should be enforced. Like every other
good thing it is possible to have too
much ot it if it is taken at the wrong
time. The lad who starts out on
ride the moment he has finished a meal
and scortches arcoss the country on t
hot day with a full stomach has him
self to blame and not the wheel if he
upsets his digestion. It would be for
tunate if it were only the boys who
do this. There are men and women
too, who have no better sense than to
follow this course.
All that has been said of the value
of the physical training gained by the
boys who use the wheel applies with
equal force to girls of the same age. It
is a mistake to think that what helps
the bays to develop his body wilrbe o
no use to the girl in the improvement
of hers. I otyen wonder if the girl does
not perhaps need it more even than the
boy. While she is still a child the
best thing that can be done If to
encourage her in the tomboy life, so
far as it leads her into the fresh sir

mothers. Mrs.

children that are grown. Many parents
will do well to take to heart the follow
ing paragraph :
"There is one thing parents should
recognize : that their children are grow
ing up and that their authority as such
grows weaker every day, while their in
fluence waxes stronger in proportion
aa the'r government has been wise,
tender and just. Many a household is
discoidant because parents insist upon
treating their grown sons and daugh
ters as though they were still children.
They Itsue commands, criticize and
find fault, forgetting apparently that
the season for training is practically
ended, and were it not, such methods
would result in more barm than good.
I know a family, in which are two
daughters, both past twenty-five, and a
son in his - thirties ; they seldom, If

a discourtesy."
