full Recreation" He said in part: "ln
educating child, we have been think
ing more of the mentality OF the
child than Of the physical child. We
have put all our money into school
grounds. A child is not all mind, he
has physical and spiritual nature as
we'll. Every school building should
have gymnasium for use in bad
weather and big play ground for use
in fair weather Because ground is
commercially high 1t has been kept
for other purposes than for develop
ing boys.
Some Games Harmful.
Every child should have lots of
outdoor life. do not favor too much
apparatus for playing. The little folks
want to use that which Is intended
for older children and the result is
harmful. do not favor basketball for
girls or football for boys. The games
are all right, but the boys and girls
aren't strong enough for the game.
Any one who goes beyond his
strength. is never again SO strong.
Games gotten up for the sake Of con-
test and with victory as the only goal
are to be decried."
DR.. Christensen made a plea for a
curfew law. saying that he hoped this
body would not adjourn without TAX
ing some action toward securing such
a law. Superintendent Aldrich then
called on Mrs. w. A. Loeffler, Mrs.
Leonard Matless, Mrs. ]. P. Hornish
and Mrs. H. J. Reeves who spoke
briefly favoring the public play
grounds.
Henry W. Huiskamp asked for the
statement Of some definite plan of
how to get the playground and
pledged his support to any plan adopt
ed.
Plan 10 Suggested.
Mr. Aldrich asked Professor Hayden
to speak OF the play ground associa.
ton plan. Mr.. Hayden said that the
Industrial association. the city COM
the Civic league. the
association and the board
of education all have public play
ground committees. Why not by some
plan bring all these forces together.
The Rev. r. w. Lilley spoke briefly
saying: II am not on the program but
l am on my feet" He urged definite
action.
1t was then moved that a play
ground association &c formed and
that a committee representing these
various organizations be appointed to
perfect the plans for the organization.
The motion was unanimously carried.
Mr.. Aldrich will later name the COM
mittee.
Name curfew Committee.
The question Of curfew law was
then brought up and upon motion it
was decided that the meeting endorse
the passage Of curfew law. Eighty
present signed petition for the same.
Mr.. Aldrich referred the matter for
presentation to the commissioners, to
a committee composed of Mrs. Harry

attended by both teachers and par
ents. A number OF representatives OF
