A plucky lad may outdo his strength, and bring on illness, in his ambition to excel at some muscular feat, or overcome his fellow in some game or sport. The satisfaction of defeating an opponent at lawn tennis, or the desire to carry off some trophy, may goad a young girl or an ambitious youth to physical harm. The imprudent efforts of people of middle and advanced age to appear young, to run to " catch " the train or street car, or show their agility in other youthful ways, have often caused sudden and serious results. 5. Necessity for Exercise. âChildren when deprived of suf- ficient out-door exercise are gen- erally pale, puny and delicate. Nothing weakens the young body like an in-door, inactive life. It makes a child tender and suscep- tible to the slightest change of weather. Colds, coughs and head- aches are quite common. Chil- dren of the working-classes are usually strong and healthy. They may not be well clad, perhaps they "re often dirty, but they have the freedom of the lanes, the fields and the streets, and spend the greater part of the day in the open air. The development of the child's body from day to day calls for close attention to its many requirements. Proper nourish- ment must be supplied and suitable clothing provided. The child must be taken out into the fresh air, and directed and encouraged in those efforts of physical exertion which tend to strengthen the syf^tem and hapten its Fio. 52 Curvature of Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Nattress, William; Ontario.
