PHYSICAL TRAINING

Aesthetic Gymnastics.—This course is conducted with two principal
aims which are of hygienic and educational value. First, to stimulate
the proper functioning of the bodily organs thus developing
proper carriage, grace, and strength. Second, to cultivate the faculties
of attention, self-control, judgment, etc. The work consists
of free gymnastics, including marching, running, use of Indian clubs,
skipping-reeds, etc., and the art of Classic Dancing. It is so arranged
as to be adapted to public school work as well as to afford a
happy diversion, and a most healthful mental and bodily stimulant.

Note.—Students are required to have gymnasium suits consisting
of bloomers and white cotton blouses, and leather-soled gymnasium
shoes. The above may be procured from a local dealer.
