The High Cost of the Idle Boy

The best vacation any boy can have is ten
weeks spent in profitable employment. There are
approximately 100000 idle boys between the
ages of nine and sixteen in the United States.
Most of them are idle more than half of the year.
DR.. P. P. Claxton, commissioner Of education in
the Department of the Interior, is authority for
the figures.
You parents of Richmond ponder with concern
and trepidation the data which he unfolds be-
fore you
Six million boys and girls are in school less
than 1000 hours in the year.
Allowing 10 hours day for sleep, they are
out of school more than 1000 waking hours.
More than an average of nine hours day. not
counting Sundays.
Even during vacation months only about 10
per cent of them have profitable employment
Only about per cent of them 60 away from
their home except for few days.

Municipal Fairgrounds

The city council has authorized the board OF
works to set aside eight acres in Glen Miller park
for municipality controlled recreation field.
year ago, the city authorities were adverse
to the movement request for baseball dia-
mond in the park met with rebuff and jolt
that killed it.
The reversal in the attitude Of the city au-
thorities deserves as much commentator as the
movement is worthy of encouragement. Public
parks are not shown places, but are spots where
the people may find opportunity for recreation
and enjoyment.
public park that contains nothing but
flower beds and rows of trees is as useless to the
public as cemetery. In fact, it is a cemetery
park, for it is lifeless, inert dead place.
The true function Of park is to provide a
breathing spot for the people-a place where
they may hold picnics and outings, where they
may rest or play baseball, golf, tennis and other
games.
If we understand the project, it is limited for
the present to the task of supplying recreational
places for the children. Let this task be carried
out at once. The adults can wait. But the full
benefit of the movement will be attained only
when young and old win find in every park Of
Richmond place to obtain exercise and enjoy
ment through indulgence in some sport.

CHAPTER TX
Captain Fane's Disappearance
To say that Lady Torrens received
the news of her nephew's marriage to
popular actress with pleasure or en-
thusiasm would be inaccurate. She
was a woman in whom pride of birth
ranked high.
When she had first read the an
nouncement she was frankly furious.
It was all very well to receive these
artistic people into ones house to din
