ing literature, providing the field sec
retary's travelling expenses and stem.
ograph1c help - the entire cost
amounts to about s136 a week. The
association is put to considerable ex.
pense to keep in touch with recrea.
ton developments, receiving reports
and newspaper clippings from every
part Of the country. In addition the
association gathers photographs, cuts,
lantern slides, and other material for
the use Of it's field force in addition to
the publication of special literature.
The association has spared no ex.
pense to make it's field work as. Ell.
!cient as possible
HOW SUPPORTED-The assocta.
tlon Is supported by voluntary con-
trlout1ons. Where representative
group OF citizens desire a field visit,
but do not have the funds ayaila Die
LOT contributing a sum equal to the
cost Of the field service, the assocIa-
ton often sends worker to assist
those interested in raising money for
the campaign. Some cities have so
appreciated the field help received
that after the campaign has been car
rIed through, they have contributed
two or three times the cost OF the

work In less prosperous communities.
TIME REQUIRED-The association
plans to have It's field secretaries re-
main in each city until practical re-
suits have been accomplished. It Is
not possible to tell in advance the
exact time required. In some cities
the desired results have been &C.
cured in a two or three weeks cam

ditions have not seemed to De radical
ly different, longer time has been re-
quired.
METHOD-The field secretary

sons and organizations Interested In
drawing up the oest plans, helps So
cure the necessary legislation for
establishing year round recreation
system and employing a recreation
secretary, assists the local bodies in
securing the necessary appropriations,
aids them in finding the right man or
woman. and helps them in organizing
public opinion so that the work will
be properly supported.
Sometimes the men and women re-
sponsible for long established recrea.
ton systems have met difficulties
which have led them to ask for a field
visit to interpret to the community
the value of the work done. The word |
Of an experienced man from outside |
carries weight, simply be. |
CAUSE he is from the outside. and ia |
a work not his own.
Much Of the best work Is done
through the personal interviews of !
the field secretary with members Of /
the city government and other infIu-
entail men and women, and through |
group conferences where there is a
great freedom for question and an
;wer. Many times much work is done
through interviews with newspaper

lresses, the arrangement Of exhibits,
