OF
LIGHT GYMNASTICS.
By LUCY B. HUNT,
Instructor in Gymnastics at Smith (Female) College, Northampton, Mass.
Illustrated. Cloth, 50 cts.
"This manual is admirably adapted for the use of teachers and pupils in public and private schools, and in seminaries and colleges, as well as a guide to health-giving exercises in the homes, especially for girls. Well-arranged series of exercises are given in free gymnastics, wand exercises, ring exercises, dumb-bells, procession, mutual-help exercises, bean-bags, marching, and a practical chapter on dress suitable for gymnastic exercises to be taken in. All these exercises have been carefully selected and thoroughly tested, and can be safely practised by any person in ordinary health."—Journal of Education.
"Taking the system of Dr. Dio Lewis as a foundation, Miss Hunt has, during her experience as a teacher, taken from, added to, and altered various exercises, until the course, so to speak, has assumed the order now presented in her little book, a course which, if carefully followed, will make the maidens of America better fitted to become its mothers."—N. Y. Mail and Express.
"It is designed as a guide to teachers of girls, but it will be found of use also to such as wish to practice the exercises at home."—N. Y. World.
