No one would pay the price of a

Yet when he tumbled down a hole

went to work rescuing him.
For 20 hours they worked before
they could get the little dog out. And
then, only after doing considerable

What Is Going On At Perth

The Importance of Competitive

The Importance of Competitive
There are two types of sports:
sports for sports sake, and sport
for personal gain. The former
ZONES under the role of a~mateurism;
the second under that of so-called
professionalism. Naturally none If
the playgrounders are in the profess
sional ranks, but upon the attitude
they acquire while they are play
grounders, depends the attitude they
entertain when their teens are pass
ed. The good or the evil of pro-
fessionalism depends upon the view
point of the individual. At any
rate, the fact remains, that in the
ranks of the professional the sport
Is not as clean as in a-mateurism; the
element of personal satisfaction and
achievement is lacking, and there
are other undesirable features.
All this by way of showing what
the youth is in danger of growing
into should he acquire a perverted
idea of sports and athletics. On the
playground, however, the youthful
athlete learns the ideal of sport for
sports sake. Real teamwork is
taught, and it stays with him. He
learns real craftsmanship methods;
he gets real training for athletics
later in life such as high school and
the collegiate circles. But we do
discourage strongly any interest in
professional sports from a partici-
patory point of view.
He learns, Furthermore, the points

thru physical sensitizing; an educa-
ton that will stick with him and
stand him in good stead all his life.
Thus, competitive games have
their value, if conducted rightly,
and if the spirit of good sportsman
ship prevails. On our grounds that
spirit is rife, and your boy will APP
%preciate the economy of later in
life.
