play is free only IN the sense that it
IS not carried on under compulsion.
As children grow older they instinct

games that Imply considerable or
ganlzation and team work. But the
modern child has lost the art OF play.
The traditions that carried the rules
Of the game and tbs spirit OF the
game have somehow been broken,
and children need again to be taught
what TO play and how to play.
Workshops in schools and in
homes seem 10 many persons rather
artificial. But these persons do not
r-alize that a generation or two ago
nearly every boy had an opportunity
20 become acquainted with various
kinds Of tools and materials through
direct contact and trial. Theoreti-
cally, we realize he educative value

Nature" in Twigs and Tadpoles.
To bring twigs and butterflies and
tadpoles into a school room or into
the home as a means OF becoming
acquainted with nature does seem
rather stilted. Certainly the chill
d-en who live in the country do not
need TO have this done for them.
But the children in the cities must
either get their nature by way OF
samples or DO without.
The great organized Efforts being
made to further the welfare OF chill
dren do, indeed, often urge upon the
public new activities for the benefit
Of babies and older children. Pure
milk and fresh air for tenement
babies, for example, are new things
in the history Of the world. Yet,
from another point OF view, they are
merely substitutes for what practi-
cally every child formerly had as
matter Of course. The conditions Of
crowded living bring lack Of air

At the same time, we must recog-
nize that our knowledge Of the fac
tors influencing child life-on the
mental and moral sides, as well as
on the physical side-has increased
so rapidly during the last genera
ton that it would really be stupid
Of Us not to make use OF some OF this
knowledge.
Children are getting much more
than they used to get, but not so
much as it seems. And perhaps, in
view OF all that IS known, not as
much as they should.

IT seems 70 ne" said Z sweet
old lady the other day, that
great deal Of ado is being
made about children nowadays.
When was younger we used TO
think that the way to spoil children
was by doing too much for them
This expresses the attitude OF
many people, who see in the various
activities relating to child welfare a
complete reversal OF the older view
OF the child's place in the world.
It IS indeed true that there IS more
thought devoted to the problem Of
the child than there ever Was before.
1t is also true that more efforts are
being made to help children in every
possible way. 1t IS a mistake. how
ever. TO suppose that everything
which IS being done and advocated
represents an addition 70 the ser
vice in the interests Of children.
One Playground-Many Petitions.
In the first place, there IS more
publicity about these things, so that
we hear relatively more about each
thing that is done.
An alderman was complaining at
his club about the annoyance caused
him by delegations Of citizens COM
ing to petition for various things.
He said that a delegation from a
mothers club had come the day be-
fore 20 urge the establishment OF d
playground; then a charity organiza-
ton had pctitioned for playground;
then a ministers association had
done the same thing. and so on.
He said fifteen distinct delegations
had petitioned for a playground.
But what can a city OF this size do
with all those Fairgrounds" asked
A visitor. oh" said the alderman,
they all want the same play
ground" And it IS much the same
way with things we hear about child
welfare
In the second place, much Of what
is nowadays urged for the welfare
Of children is in TIE nature Of sub
stitute TO take the place OF some ad-
vantage of which the children have
been deprived. Take tie matter Of
Fairgrounds, for example. When
the parents were young the cities
had no Fairgrounds. But neither
did they need any. They had NUM-
bcrless vacant lots and even bits OF
woods. The large cities, even
twenty or thirty years ago, could
send their children into open fields
with only little travel from their
homes. Moreover, the city street
has become a much more congested
and more dangerous place. so that It
IS rot now a safe place for children,
even to travel through alone.
Organized Play Revives Spirit.
Organized play seems to older
people an absurd contradiction IN
terms. for the thought OF play sug-
