THO Roy SCOUT CAMPAIGN AND
THE NEGRO BOY.

Forty three thousand ($i3,000) dol
lars have recently been subscribed by
the white people or this community
10 pay for leisure time activities for
white boys. The Boy Scout Campaign
was endorsed and actively support
cd by tho pulpit, press leaders Of
thought and every class of white citl
Gems. Not one dissenting voice was
heard, but good American dollars
were piled up In order to give the
white boy tho wholesome and health
full recreation offered by the boy
scout program. In addition to the
scout program, the white boy has
modern churches and Sunday school
rooms. he has access to the we'll
equipped gymnasium and game rooms
of the Y. NJ. g. a., he has the Y.
swimming pool and the Howitzer
swimming pool; he has Fairgrounds
In every section Of the city, he has
the Young Mems Hebrew Associat-
ion and The Knights of Columbus, he
has community ccnters and restovers
he has cadet corps; he has lyccumS
and debating societies; he has Sun
day Sings and Band concerts; he has
circulating libraries; he has all OF
these things and more we must not
mention. His playtime is capitalized
He is taugt through play to be manly
vigorous, to be gallant, to work in
teams, to respect his womenhood and
to CD loyal to his fellows.
In sad contrast what has the Ne.
gro 10y? Will those who wax clio.
qucnt and harangue on the inner
fcctions Of the Negro youth answer?
Have they some secret method of at
tractinG the youthful imagina-
TON unknown to the pcople
who have just given $43. 900
to supplement- the things already
provided for the white youth? Are
these things OF no consequence and
the thousands spent in promoting
them wasted?
1t may be after al that the Negro
90 no need as much in this life as
DINER races. 1t may be that his de-
Vclormcnt is destined to he of I'M
mushroom variety. Negro children
must not laugh and sing and dance
ana play. All that is bright and cheer
inl and bhthcS0mc must he hanishod
from their lives. Their leisure .imn
needs no direction, their methods Of
play must 80 forever unrestricted
Is t surprising that they satisfy a
perfectly natural desire through re.
