would have upon war plays. That is,

thought OF It as an essential because
he hasn't stopped to analyze its func-

understanding that It is as necessary

stupid and stuffed and stagnant II
there were no wholesome recreation in
It, But these people are the excep-

OF you and me and what we do as one
OF the luxuries Of life--not one Of its
essentials. AS a matter of fact the
