PATRIOTICPLAY.
WEEK PLANNED
IN SEPTEMBER
Outstanding Feature for
Children's S Year Is Be-
ing Prepared.

An outstanding feature of Children's
Year will be patriotic Play Week"
The week of September II has been
suggested by those promoting the
Children's Year campaign as a period
during which emphasis shall be placed
upon the necessity of supplying the
youth Of the country with proper re-
creation facilities. to offset the war
time hazards of increased delinquency.
overtaxed nerves, and weakened
bodies.
Mrs. whitman Cross, who has
charge Of the Children's Year cam
paign in the District of Columbia. has
appointed Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes
chairman of the committee to formu-
late plans for Patriotic Play Week.
Agencies Cooperate.
All existing agencies interested in
children's recreation have signified
their willingness to cooperate in the
plans for Patriotic Play Week. They
are the Boy Scouts of America, the
Camp Fire Girls, the Young Women's
Christian Association, the Drama
League, the Amateur Athletic Union.
the Canning Clubs of the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, the Com
munity Chorus Movement, the U. 8
Bureau of Education, the 1nterna-
! tional Sunday School Association, the
Girl Scouts of America, the State
| Councils of the Council Of National
Defense and the Fairgrounds and Re-
/ creation Association of America.
Prominent in this last organi-
zatio nmentioned-the Fairgrounds
| and Recreation Association of
Americas Charles Weller. He was
asked to take charge of the whole
subject of recreation by the Chill
ell of National Defense.
'The recreation drive" Mr.. We'll
Ter says, rests upon the belief that
lit is vitality necessary for older
children to play. Mere calisthenics.
though excellent. are neither recre-
alton nor play. Real play is ex-
pressed by a good game. good
story, a good laugh, good music.
good drama, good effort at MINI
icry
"The spirit of youth is the very
| essence of the resolution and dar-
| ing that are needed above every
thing else when a nation is at war.
Forefathers Set Example.
| I'VE have national examples. Our
greatest leaders of men kept them
selves fit through recreation. WASH
| ington is credited with having
cleared more than twenty-four feet
in a running broad jump which
would have made him star in
present athletic circles.
IF our forefathers set the pace
and men like President Wilson keep
the pace we cannot let our youth
fall back for lack of necessary
stimulus to do the same"
In the recreation drive this sum-
mer all activities may be more or
less preparatory to Patriotic Play
Week.

RESOLUTIONS OF THANKS

Christmas 1917. win long be re-
membered in this city, for it was
unique in many ways For instance,
who ever heard of membership
campaign, and especially of mar
velously successful campaign, just
the week preceding the holidays?
Yet under the efficient leadership of
Nh, Alexander Parks, Jr., and his
noble and patriotic aids (ladies and
gentlemen), Martinsburg Chapter
went considerably sover the top
number apportioned- instead of 800
members of the Red Cross drive,
there were 1900. Another unique
feature was the artistic, unusual and
beautiful Christmas tree-really a
Christmas city--the property Of the
Messrs. Wellinger. which they turn
ed over to the Chapter for exhibit
during the holidays. DR. Gardner
housed this wonderful tree in his
new building. thus making q conven-
lent and comfortable place for the
many people, old and young, to visit
this charming city. Mrs. Phil Grove
and assistants kept the key of this
Christmas City. and untiringly un.
locked the gate for the many who
entered. Still another and an inn
portant feature Of this Christmas
season was the singing of Christmas
carols TIT night before Christmas in
the public square. Mrs Schultz had
charge of this part Of the program
and worked ceaseIessly- the
weather man interferred very much
with her plans.
To each Of these mentioned above
to all who helped in any way to make
j Red Cross Christmas a truly won
derful success, the Martinsburf
Chapter, A. r. c.. extends its mos
sincere and hearty thanks.
Respectfully submitted,
