DR.. Poole Scores ImmOd-

play as is exemplifed in our Kinder
garten system
"The result of good wholesome
play is to rccreatc a person both
physically and morally. DR. Cabot
urges that play as expemlified in the
drama baseball and dancing have q
place in the arts equal to music If
erature and painting. He mentions
dancing specially as an approved part
of play
at is true that the dancing of the
Bible is very different from the sort
practised today 1t was more of the
form of Folk dancing. | venture that
there were certain objections to 1t
then as there are today.
"First-dancing in itself is a thor
oughly natural demonstration of hui
man rejoicing. 1t covers the entire
life of humanity and will probably
continue for years to come. But there
are good dances and there bad dances
just as there are good plays and bad
plays. To judge the morals of a
present day dance is to judge the
modesty Of dress Of the women. The
lack of medesty IN dress does not
show a high standard of our genera
ton.
There is nothing in the. Bible upon
which to teach prohibition of dane
ing. One may dance before the Lord
according to the Bible. Jesus him
self gave way to dancing as an ex-
preston of rejoicing. 1t is extreme
ly unfortunate that the conscience Of
a young person should be burdened
with the principle that dancing is pro-
hibitive. 1t is perfectly natural for
the young person to respond to
lythmic motion in response to music
There are ages and customs behind
them in this.
"The two principles of dancing are
! discrimination and moderation. There
are dances where the participants are
gentle folks who dress modestly and
who conduct themselves above crit
icism. Then into these dances come
the few who dress shockingly and
shamelessly. Their excuse is that
they must be in style. Good, clean
dances and modesty Of dress create
a sound public feeling for dancing
which would soon outlaw the dance
where the women are indecent in
dress.
Dancing in moderation is to make
play its proper, fractional part in
life. Play should not infringe upon
work, love or worship. To dance
to excess is wrong just as to devote
too great a part OF ones life to any
one pleasure is wrong.
"The man or woman is weak who
does not possess selt-contlol. The
Bible says there is a time to plant
and time to reap. SO there is a.
time to work and TINE to play The
man or woman who is Incorporate
in dancing need restraint as the man
who is a careless automobile driver,
Stringent road laws are made because
of the man who drives with excessive !
speed and who has a disregard TO!
pedestrians. Those who are careful
and moderate have to put up with !
the incorporate man. The spirit Of
play and of dancing is often destroy
ed and given a bad name by the ones
who are Incorporate.
"The conclusion regarding dancing
is that it is honorable and valid as
a part of play; that it's use should !
be with discretion and moderation;
thattne theory of prohibition Of dane
ing is wrong and unfair"

Recruit For Army
of Occupation in
HunLdnd is Order

Washington, Oct 27.-Recruiting
for the Army of Occupation now on
duty in Germany will be resumed
on November / For the infantry
200 men are needed, OF whom
twelve must be clerks, but only rs
cruits of Il high type, who can be
quickly trained will be accepted.
When 310 infantry vacancies were
thrown open on October they
were filled up so quickly that these
enlistments for Germany had to be
closed on October 6.
Major General p c. Harris, The
Adjutant General of the Army says
THE service in Germany has proved
to be so attractive that the ranks
there are always filled. Our chief
difficulty is that regiments are apt
to be over-enlisted before we can
stop the recruiting officers from
accepting more applicants. and we
must send such men to the station
for which they were accepted.
Equally popular is army service tn
Hawaii. and as a rule few recruits
can be accepted for duty there.
However, the 18th Field ARTILLERY
has left the United States for ser
vice in the mid-Pacific, and enlist
authorized in orders issued today.
In the old army new recruits had
no choice in the selection OF a regi.
ment, and could not name any par
ticular station. In the new peace
time army a man may either pick
his own regiment or designate the
part Of the world to which he wishes
10 be sent.
