...Training, Athletic Sports, and Sanitary Condition of Buildings, to the Board of Overseers, which appears in the current number of the Graduates' Magazine, contains some important suggestions in regard to physical training.

Thus a very large class take no regular exercise and it is by no means uncommon to find men, often students of gret promise, who leave college as much weakened in body as they are strengthened in mind."

There is one drawback. Take-offs on college professors form part of the Lampoon's ordinary stock in trade, are usually harmless, and often true to life. The take-off in the present number is not wholly of this description and might well be suppressed...
