I can recall numbers of instances of girls who came to us weak, indifferent, listless, full of morbid whims and uncontrolled caprices of mind and body, who gained in this bracing atmosphere of happy, sustained industry, such an impetus toward real health that they forgot aches and discontents, and went home ready and eager to do their share in the world's work. Every one knows that uncongenial, badly-planned, disconnected, or purposeless effort fatigues, worries, and weakens both body and mind: is it difficult to believe the converse--that thorough, methodical, and helpful activity stimulates and strengthens. To these general statements, I add the following particulars respecting the last three classes. I have divided each class into three groups, designated respectively "Good," "Fair," "Delicate," according to the condition of health in which the individual students entered upon the college curriculum. CLASS OF 1871. Entered in good health 14 " " fair " 5 " " delicate " 2 Of the fourteen "good," thirteen graduated in as good health; one in much deteriorated health. Of the five "fair," all left improved, as did also the "two delicate." CLASS OF 1872. Entered in good health 18 " " fair " 9 " " delicate " 1 Of the eighteen "good," all left in as good or better health. Of the nine "fair" all improved, and the one "delicate" had ceased to make that distinction necessary; she was promoted to "fair." CLASS OF 1873. Entered in good health 19 " " fair " 14 " " delicate " 12 Of the nineteen "good," fifteen left as well as they came. Two took the course too young, and felt the undue strain in diminished general strength. Two deteriorated in health. Of the fourteen "fair," five left in essentially the same condition; nine improved. Of the twelve "delicate," five left in the same condition; seven improved. It is scarcely necessary to say that every year the same old battles with bad habits in dress, diet, exercise, sleep, and work, have to be fought; but the enemies are not so numerous, and the allies of health and common sense are always gaining in numbers and strength; so the prospect for ultimate and complete victory improves. Perhaps the greatest obstacle that we find to the consummation of our scheme for intellectual training, is the pressure made by students, and even more strongly by their parents, to take the work while they are too young.
