A RACE OF GIANTESSES.
It is the fashion of the moment to teach, induce, and even compel girls to play games which were originally invented for big boys and young men. In teaching and making giris play these games you develop the combative instinct and the combative muscles. In this way you are raising a face of giantesses who arc going to have the combative disposition Another effect of this ultra-athleticism among girls of to-day is to produce a creature who has the male rather than the female characteristics. —Dr Leonard Williams.
