Don't Milt It, GYMNASIUM WORK GREAT HELP TO POOR CRIPPLE Keene Fitzpatrick Tells of Bene fits Derived From Athletic Training. GREAT IMPROVEMENT NOTED Athletic training, gymnasium work and physical culture works to the ln-n-eflt of everyone who takes It up. Keene Fitzpatrick, tho noted couch of Mich igan track teams, relates a story of a student who entered the university a few years ago, ua an example of the benetlts derived from bklllcd In struction. "This student came to me," says Fitzpatrick, "to get excused from gym nasium work, which Is compulsory for freshmen. As you see,' ho said, 'It will be impossible for me to take the work. The man was horribly crippled, and Pad been so from birth. He had never walked n step, lie covered the ground with a peculiar shuffling, never lift ing his feet. "Ilia hands were closed, almost shut, and he was unablo to raise them above his head. Ills legs were twisted out of shape, and he could not con trol his head and neck. . At times, when least expected, his chin would drop to his chest, and It required sev eral attempts, frequently, for him to bring his head to un upright posi tion. "'Of course, Mr. Fitzpatrick, you see It is utterly impossible for me to take any work,' he said. "I told him I did not think so. " 'It's impossible. I comM not spare the time. Why, the undressing and dressing for gym work would take too much time. If there was no other reason. I cannot dress In less than 15 minutes, und have to have assis tance.' ioung man." I said, 'you are nbout the worst I have ever had any thing to do with, but gym work will benefit you. I will teach you to walk. "Well, ho started In with his work and proved my hardest problem. 1 had to invent exercises for him to strengthen every part of his body After a time ho could raise his arms high above his head. Rcfoio the first term the times be lust control of his neck muscles were few and far be tween. In the end he had almost per fect centred of them. "What he prized most was that he learned to walk. Day after day 1 taught him. I showed him how to step and helped him with my hands to take steps. The first two steps he took alone were followed by tears of Joy. Of course, he will never be able to walk as an able-bodied man, but he learned to discard his shuffle. "Rooause he learned to use his legs he acquired tho mastery of n bicycle, and the Bccond summer vacation he traveled about the country, canvas sing for hooks, and earned enough to put him through college. This Is but an Instance of gymnasium work's benefits. If people realized the value of physical culture, we would be a splendidly developed race of men and women." HOCKEY GAME TONIGHT.

The dies for the silver coins were of hard steel.
