THE GERMAN SUN-LAND.

BACK TO THE GREEK IDEAL.

CULT OF ATHLETICISM.

The visitor to revivided Germany, especially if he be a Briton, will soon become almost self-consciously aware of a remarkable change in the attitude of mind of large num-

bers of staid, hard-working, respect able citizens who are daily growing more enthusiastic about what is known 3.5 "Freikörperkultur." This rapidly spreading movement is highly significant. It would seem that Germany, always ready to seek some cutlet for her enviable ener gies, has successfully shed national means of military exercise as a

"Mens Sana... "Sonnland," "Lichtland," "Mar chenwiese" and similar notices in dicating the practice of health cul- ture are now to be found dotted about the country, and behind the fences enclosing these fields of activity the members are permitted by law to indulge their new health schemes. The law also prescribes a notice forbidding entrance to any "but approved members, although in one or two districts the Greck ideal may be sought and practised with- cut any particular regard for pri vacy-and it, must be admitted that no great harm has come of it, for cleanlines of mind is rigorously developed with physical fitness and A sound cleanliness of body.

There is much that is novel and astonish- ing, but the visitor who for the first time sees one of these places can- not remain unimpressed by the evident sincerity and enthusiasm of the robust members.

In the Interests of Youth, "Freikörperkultur" has its vari ous associations all over the coun- try, and the number of its adher ents is growing very rapidly. Many people,, too, accept the tenets of the movement without belonging to any official organisation and under take their exercises in the form of local unattached groups. Of the three chief headquarters, two are in Berlin and one in Hamburg, and there are two further organisations of a political character with head quarters in the capital and in Dresden. Most of the associations, however, have to political colour, but are run exclusively in the in- terests of youth and simple gul ture.
