| The play ground affords a natus>l
and normal outlet for energies that
otherwise go astray or are directed III
! mischief of some sort. While the re-
| cess period affords plenty of fresh air.
exercise and relaxation, it does not
compensate for the time thus spent
After recess period the child should
return to mis- or her classes refreshed in
spirit, mind and body and be able to
renew the work with greater zeal and
interest
At the opening of school last fall at
the new Central school building, with
an enrolment of $50 students compris-
ing part of the fourth. all of the fifth.
sixth, seventh and eighth grades, and
with a limited play ground space, we
realized that unless all the ground was
utilized and unless there was some sys-
tematic arrangement of games on the
grounds, there would be endless con-
fusion and chaos
We are exceedingly fortunate in
having in the corps of teachers several
who were especially fitted for the var
ious branches of athletic work
l. d. Molet who. had charge of the
athletic work in the grade schools last
year was chosen play ground super
visor and assumed charge of the boys
basketball teams.
Miss Alton Clark and Miss Anime
Cash, who have had experience as
players and instructors are in charge
Of the girls basketball teams
c. F. Meagher was Il director in one
OF the Los Angeles play grounds and
is highly qualified to take charge of the
indoor handball and volley ball.
F. A. kGhn, who won a reputation for
himself as a pitcher in baseball in
Florida viii have charge of baseball
work and has already demonstrated
that the National pastme will continue
to be the popular sport.
In order to facilitate the work. the
pupils were divided into four groups or
divisions This was done by obtaining
the age. height and weight of each pu-
pil and then classifying them so that
each division contains an equal num-

and the consequent congested condition
in them has placed limitations on the
normal life in many ways and in nearly
all large cities there is a continuous
movement for public play grounds and
more park space for all classes The
whole question of building up a strong
physique and the vital resistance to
disease is an economic one, and de-
serves careful attention. 1t naturally
follows that this can best be accom-
plishcd by increasing the opportunities
for fresh air. sunshine and exercise
As a whole, educational institutions
have been slow to learn the real value
of recreation and exercise. In too
many cases it has been carried to ex-
tremes of either having practically no
systematic exercise at all. or having it
so excessively as to exhaust nervous
energy, Too often in our schools and
colleges those who are already strong
and healthy are trained and developed
for the various teams, while those who
really need physical Development are
sadly neglected. Even under the most
favorable conditions class room work
is bound to induce considerable physi-
cal and mental strain. not only through
prolonged concentration but also
through abnormal supervision of move
ments and social intercourse, which the
maintenance of discipline necessitates

The National pastme comes in for
its full share of attention in success
fully working out thep Ian of organized
playground work. Space has been pro-
vided for two diamonds, one large one
for the older boys. and smaller one
for the use of the smaller boys. All
bats, balls, masks and catchers mits
are provided by the school for the BEN
eft of those who wish to use them,
doing away with private ownership Of
equipment. In case the director is UNI
the equipment is checked out each
morning to the leader of the color team
playing that day. He is made directly
responsible for the care and return of
these articles and is required to check
them in after the last recess or at the
close OF school. In case of loss or
damage. he reports it and note is made
of the same. The playing schedule is
arranged each week advance by the
directors of the playground. and works
so that each color has a day each week
to play ball with championship game
every Friday.
The shy awkward boy is given special
attention and instruction in the basic
principals of the game to increase his
efficiency and make him more the
equal of the more fortunate boy who

the same general qualifications. This
arrangement eliminates class rivalry
and assures better contests because
under no condition will the pupils of "a
lower grade be compelled to compete
with the larger pupils of the higher
grades
This method has been applied to all
the organizations and worked out by
the supervisors of each division with
the most successful results The four
divisions were called the Reds, Whites.
Blues and Oranges and leaders were
chosen for the respective divisions who
also act as monitors to look after the
equipment. No pupil is compelled to
take part in any of the sports, but the
schedules are arranged so that every
one viii have an opportunity to play
some game
