The gymnasium at Girard College should not have been closed even temporarily. The education it supplies is as important as that given in any other department of the college. The students may have sufficient out-door exercise, but when the gymnasium is not open they must lack the systematic physical training which can only be had under a competent instructor. When the master of this branch is ill his place should be supplied, just as would be the place of any other professor under the same circumstances.
