Excerpt from Manual for Physical Training in Elementary Schools
The object of these exercises is not to build up big muscles or to tax the strength but to produce a sense of well-being. The time required in taking them is so limited that they are not taxing in any sense, but are simple, pleasurable, and exhilarating, even Without regard to the healthful effects produced. The exercises are for the most part directed towards the improvement of the trunk rather than that of the limbs. The trunk contains the vital organs. It is. Like the engine in a motor car. It is here that the organic and functional activities are carried on. It is here that the breathing is done. It is here that the heart operates and the whole digestive tract functions. It is here that the faulty carriage of the body begins and it is here that bad habits and ex cesses make themselves felt. When the breathing is proper, when the operations of digestion are going on normally, when the heart is function ingas it should, one may be assured that the child or pupil is traveling in the direction of health, and it is along this line that these exercises are directed.

One purpose is to produce an erect carriage, but it is also desirable to secure what comes with erect carriage, namely, the strengthening of the spine, the lifting of the whole thoracic upper body, the easy spread of the ribs and the pliability of the diaphragm.
Always open windows at top and bottom when any exercises are to begin. Fresh air acts not only as a speedy stimulus to the child's action but by purifying and cooling the room makes a more healthful atmosphere for the succeeding lessons. If any of the children begin to shiver, don't close windows but give vigorous exercises. Always avoid a draft under all conditions.
