The Maratlion Craze Since the Marathon run hust summer was won by an .\inericaii, such tests o' endurance have been enthusiastically pui-sued by the youth of the kindred nations. Americans intend to keep this country at the front in future Olympic games. EnglLshinen are preijariiig to take away the distinctionâ€" training so arduously as to give cau.se for warnings which their cousins will do well to heed. The Miu-athon distance isaliout twenty- si.\ miles. .\t the Olympic it is covered by young men who are supposed to be strong, sound, experienced, and directed by experts who know how to place each stride and get tho most out of every muscle. Even so a Marathon "finish" is not a pleasing si>ectacle. It indicates that the contestants have undergone a strain fri'in which they will not soon, if ever, recover. Medical authorities are agreed that this Ls the fact. Many go farther, and declare that just a.s it harms men to run a long dLstance, so does itjnjure growing boys to run a shorter distance, if tho strain of competition is added. Five of the most eminent physicians and surge- ons in Enghind have united in a state- ment that ".school and cro.ss-country races exceeding one iiiilo are wholly un- suitable for boys under nineteen, as tho continued strain involved is apt to cause permanent injury to the heart aud other organs. " Some think that this .shows excess of cautiim. Perhaps it doe.s. At any i-ate, it shows unselfishness, for tho doctors are trying to forestjill conditions that, in later yeai-s, they wouhl be called upon to t.eat. If they arc willing to make that .sacrifice for what they concive to be the general good, surely any youth can af- ford for his own good to give up tho hope of ;i momentary fame. The Marathon craze hius served one useful purpo.se. however, in that it has led to a thorough reox.-iinination of large and imporUint ipiestiims. So far in Great Britain, the Conservatives seem to have triumphed. Even the setting-up drill of tho British army has of late been i-evised with a view to eliiniiiato all inoveuients that|^jut undue strain upon the heart. No one can go fiu* wrong if h" follows that irrecedent . Exercise is neces.sary and whole.some.
