MoreThey now enter the regular college, and in addition to the studies, take part in many if not all of the athletic sports of the boys. The training of the girls of to-day differs widely from that deemed essential in the time of our grandmothers; now, weather and occasion permitting, instead of sitting quietly at home with shoulders bent over superfluous fancy work, they don their short skirts and are off on their bicycles to the golf links; or, dressed in their best gowns, flock to the Girls A rt, Literary, or Current -topics Club. It is to these rational pastimes that we owe the development of our fine, tall American girls, whose splendid physiques have never before been equalled. The love of out-of-door sports is so great that many urgent requests have come to us for further information on modern recreations, and to meet the wishes of our girl friends all over the country, we have added eight new chapters to the original American Girl sH andy Book.
