Excerpt from A Teachers' Course in Physical Training: A Brief Study of the Fundamental Principles of Gymnastic Training; Designed for Teachers of the Public Schools The only excuse for the existence of this little volume is necessity. It has been the duty of the author, during the past four years, to give a ten Weeks' course in the, theory of Physical Training to meet the needs of students prepar ing to teach in the grades of the public schools. It is of course imperative that-these prospective teachers be given as clear an insight as possible into the principles of Anat omy, Physiology, Hygiene, Gymnastic technique, and Peda gogy upon which the teaching of Physical Training de pends. The attempt to have this knowledge acquired by reference to the standard works in these subjects, -a plan that is perfectly feasible in the case of students taking a more complete course, - has resulted in the use of a large amount of time that was comparatively unproductive, because the books that are reliable are very full and very technical in their discussions of these matters. The cir cuinstances demand the use of a text, to be supplemented by lectures, demonstrations and recitations. Such a guide was not to be found in the market, - hence the necessity.
