The intense interest that the people
of the United States have shown in the
world series suggests that it would be q
good move to set aside one day of the
year to be devoted to sports Already
We have day for the honoring of men
who labor, a day for decoration and
remembrance, and other days for the
honoring of the men who have made
the country great.
Why should we not have day for
sports? The suggestion is not design
ed merely for the purpose Of giving
the people of the country another holt
day, but for showing national appreci-
alton of the value o. clean and health
full sport.
The health of the nation is of pri-
mary Importance. Contests played in
the open air make the people stronger
and of cleaner clearer minds. We
would not have so much call for dis
eased drama and card games in ST.

ness fer healthy sport were inculcatel
into all the people,
Lately many men and women have
taken up horseback riding. This is
an indication that the people are NOV

Ohio and Pennsylvania now require

North Dakota illustrates the fact.
New York placed close season on
quail for five years and Kansas added
both quail and priarie chickens to the
list until 1918. Ohio sus-
pended hunting of quail, ruffied grouse
and doves for two years. Pennsylvan-
ia eliminated the open season and doves

Utah extended complete protection to
doves, swans, and all shore birds ex-

During the year IS states created
game preserves, IA in the United States
and in Manitoba. In Washington
the county game commissioners were
authorized to create game preserves,
not to include more than three town
ships in a county, and the authorities
OF Michigan, Ohio, and Vermont were
authorized to establish game preserves
by contract on private lands.
One OF the marked features of the
legislation of the year was the unusual

A DAY FOR SPORTS

, ing in the right direction. The intense
| interest in the world series games is
another healthy sign. 1t shows that
the people are in a mood for clean con-
tests and are rot decadent.
Let us have a day devoted to sport
throughout the country! Let the ma
ton itself put its stamp OF approval
upon physical exercise that keeps the
body strong and the mind invigorat d
and we'll aired. A date that suggests
itself is the day on which the world
series begins, when the nation is on
tiptoe of expectancy, and when adults
and children want a chance to see the
game or see the score board. Then.
too, baseball is the national game, and
the millions who applauded and the
men who make up the teams are in
spired and stirred by national pride
Those who wanted to participate in
games could arrange for them this day
and those who were content merely to
watch the others play would at least
get the benefit of fresh air and sunlight
The effect would be wholesome and
would not end with the day. Clean
sport would be dignified and the health
of the nation, which is one of our
greatest assets, would be improved.
