that has long ago been displaced by
Vinol, a combination of the two most

ed amongst these features might be
games. folk dancing. story telling
and dramatization.
Especially does a play ground
here seem possible, since already sew
eral people who have worked with
cliildrenlahd love them, have offered
ffhheir services fpF, q part of the time,
though however, imlneh these people
may do, II has already seemed wiscst
in this kind OF work to have some
who arc paid, so that there will be
some obligation on their part TO al
ways be present and to be prepared
for their work.
Can we afford TO keep these. things
from our boys and girls. when We
know that out on orr streots, which
are the play grounds for the most of
them, they are oftcntimes learning
those things which tend to destroy
character rather than TO build It up?
II was only few weeks ago that
was awakened in the night by two
boys who looked TO be about nine
years old. One was cursIng the other
and threatening TO kill him with-:a
brick. A man called from n window
threatening to hayeAtllcm arrested If
they did not stop. such language,
They passed on down the street still
giving vent TO their uncontrolled
anger. II is not alone our boys who
are in danger, for have had mothers
right here IN Fairmont come to nc
telling of the vile things that their
little girls had learned oH the strcots
from their seemingly nice associates.
We cannot eliminate these evils,
hut We can SO MI the lives of the
children with wholesome activities,
clean sport, love for, pleasure and
proper dancing, that there will be no
room in their lives for j uncIean
thoughts. Or. Johnson says lit is
on tho playground that the dccp IN
stfncts of workmanship. imitation,
rivalry and cooperation find their
true and gentle expression" These
instincts calling from the depth Of a
child's nature are not voices calling
him astray, or to delay his upward
progress. They are the voices say
Ing to him and to the race.

Aside from the moral needs of
Fairgrounds in Fairmont are the
physical needs. Teachers point out
