able direction of coach Robinson, we are sure to win
some victories ou the inter collegiate trip, that will

It is surprising to sec how many of the students
huve planned for definate work during the summer
We do not believe that there is a more energetic and
businass like body of students in the United Slates.
It i safe to say that over half at Icf-t of the young

Girls Gym.
The girl's gymnasium exhibition last s.iturdny
eveumgwas the most successful exhibition lti.it ha
beeti given. The people who were fnunwtr
enough to have tickets did not let the Jam m-i-ji
llieiii at home. Some of the boys who could ni
"work" a ticket were willing to sit in the window
and did not seem to niiitd the rain. Anjihwg !
see the girls perform.
The class work was very good and .showed llmi
careful training, but the pa it which pleased tin-and
ieuce most, was the apparatus work and tin- tiw
drill.
The girls surprised every one iu their apjuutu
work. It was most like a four ringed circus t" tij
and watch all of them. The periormaiice ou li
ladder, the swinging .rings and Uie jumping ''
perhaps the most difficult work of the cm ""'J,'
The highest jump was live feet three inches
The mass diill was very pretty. All tin !
(tuniii on to the floor and gate free hand work
Tlie exhibition closed wiih a short game of basket
ball. If Uie members of the legislature could hate
seen the way the girls tumbled around, they would
undoubtedly have considered it a very brutal and
uncivilized game, even worse that! fool ball
The girls entered into the work with a great deal
of enthusiasm, and that accounts for the suo-ess of
the exhibition.
Thebojs will have lo work pretty hard if tlW
give
any thing which tvlil surpass the girls.
