up the list of button and other winners
of the playground tournament held several
days ago.
In tabulating this large list they point
to the fact that three years ago when a
similar tournament was held none of the
children had received sufficient training
to win a prize, but after the instruction
and work for the past three years large
number have come forward and won
prizes.
In speaking of the work DIR. Curtis said
yesterday:
''In contrast with the results at the
beginning the tournaments which have
taken place during the past week have
all been we'll attended by the children who
have been training for weeks beforehand
The skill which they have shown in the
different events was often remarka ble
but the best thing that has come out of
it has been the almost uniform courtesy
with which the children have treated each
other, the matter of which both they,
their parents and the playground direc-
tors may we'll be proud.
Every event was closely contested and
excellent records were made. Parents. old
and young, were out in force and were
just as enthusiastic over the events as
the children themselves. Indeed, some
of them could scarcely contain Their en-
thusiasm while their children were COM
peting.'
I'VE all feel, am sure" he said in
closing, that there are all too few
recreations in which the communities as
a whole take part and which bring them
together as a unit.
