When this idea has become generally accepted, as it seems probable under Dr. Sargent's teaching that it will, then this objection to specialties may be thrown aside. As to competition, it may be an evil, but it is a necessary evil. We must accept our athletes with this evil or not at all. [Turf, Field and Farm.
