after he had made a few introductory re

marching as the opening exercise, whish
was very much admired. This was follow-
ed by a calisthenic drill with Isar bells, the
performance of which is calculated to give
g race and ease of movement to the body
not otherwise c.bta.nable. The applause
with which tilts performance was greeted
lulheared Its hearty appreciation by the
audience. A number of difficult feats wen
then performed on the parallel Mrs, some
thirteen exere•:aes in all, which showed the
wood.rf,l amount of perseverance in train
It g tl.at bad been gone through by the mem-
ber*, as well a. patience on the part of the

appreciated by the as emblave. The front

also was the line's crawl by the club,
an extremely difficult ui%ecise. The
va01tine exercise was aloe 'an' attractive
feature of the evening, awl worthy of epeeist
n ote was the slow rise veulte of Messrs.
Thompson, ifooper and Logan, the height
being shout eight feet. The vaulting of
Haydn Williams and Will Pasamspre was
also good. At this stage of the preceeding.
Marrs. Logan and Thompson drew them-
selves up with one arm, and elowly relaxing
their muacies, let themselves down again,
an exceedingly difficult performance, and
one reoiuiting great development of mance.
Some very pretty club swinging was done
by a clam of young ladies from the Col -
leg ate Institute. Tbe wrist movements
wt re exceedingly well done. Miss Aiken,
of the teaching atatof the school, hes charge
of this class. e
The agility with which the boys
"walked" up and down the climbing
rope. would almost lead one to believe that
there was some truth in the 1)srwiaian
theory. From an athletic point of view the
high jumping was perhaps Outmost interest-
ing item on the program. Anywhere from
five feet to five feet, three inches, has bees
considered good lade work in the leading
universities and colleges of the country, bot
when McKeon, f.oc ie cod Hooper began
destine five lest three and four inches, and
Rohs Morton Adel stop toll he went over

so hounds. This in a nrowd.d building,
