>From Brahmacarya in Krsna consciousness by HH Bhakti Vikasa Swami:

 

"Peoples' needs for exercise vary greatly in terms of their age, health and

general proclivities."

 

Does the apostrophe in the word "Peoples'" acceptable? Is it proper usage?

 

or

 

Should we change the whole sentence to make it more clear?

 

 

Your servant

Apostrophe should be before s -- People's. But better . . .

 

"One's need for exercise varies greatly in terms of age, health, and

proclivity."
