To Live Successfully is the objective of “Keep Fit” Week---
Says the Member for Masterton (Mr J. Robertson).
QNE of Hie great problems confronted by all reformers has always been how to teach people to enjcfy themselves rationally. With the increasing mechanisation of industry, people can, and assuredly will, have more and more leisure: To show how to employ this leisure usefully, in order that more and more people can live more and more successfully is the objective of the'“Keep Fit” campaign sponsored by the Minister of Internal Affairs and the National Council of Physical Welfare and Recreation. The maintenance of healthy bodies in which to develop healthy minds must commend itself to all thoughtful people. The more all our faculties of body and mind are developed, the more we can get out of life, the richer we will be in all that really counts. To produce in ourselves a harmony with all that is best in our . surroundings can only be done by the development of our faculties, physical and mental, and in doing this we “Keep Fit” in every sense of the term, f hope Masterton will show its appreciation of the importance of the week before us. J. ROBERTSON, M.P.
