Next year being census year,
here's tip to make things easier
for the census taker:
Wait until nice, quiet Sunday
afternoon comes along, when
everyone is sitting around wish
ing he had something to do, then
blow the fire siren.
All the census man will have
to do then is sit back and count
the people as they go past; he
can rest assured just about every
one in town will turn out as soon
as they hear the alarm.

er
ally, Intellectually and physically
Every child is a potential artist
in the sense that he is alive and
expressive. Literally there are no
children incapable af growth and
INSTRUMENTATION is where
you find it.
A very common remark could
be used as an opponent factor in
this discussion. cart is not being
taught in st. Croix because there
are no materials --and--no teach
ers to carry over the responsible
ity of the work.
May I prove my statement:
There are no other islands in
the world with as rich a supply
OF raw materials, as are these of
the Caribbean and Atlantic ocean.
Palm Observation-Disclosures
just to mention a few other ma
tive materialS--go to waste--be-
cause the hands of our youth have
not been trained to use them. Has
the outside influence kept you off
of creation? To its minimum or
maximum capacity of expression.
The past is not important if we
at the present time could count on
the devoted teamwork of this new
group Of art teachers, the broad
participation of everyone in the
school system and of as many per
sons in the community. Parents,
merchants--the press and the Ii
brary and all those who consider
themselves active citizens of st.
Croix.
ID In art education we see the
child as a pliable personality, as
an individual, contributing men,
Der of a democratic organization.
~ This is expressed in the
growth of his personality, UNDER
standing of himself and other
people--ability to express his own
thoughts, to use his mind and
hands--to make things as the re-
suit of his own thinking.
90 Art experience helps to re-
lease thwarted personalities, gives
new opportunities to the neglect
ed, and enriches and rounds up
the education of all children from
the least to the most favored.

ADDRESS BY
Mrs. Maria Castillo
at Human Relations Workshop
of Polytechnic Institute

The physical beauty of this Is
land, its picturesque and rthymic
architecture, traditional and color
full costumes, worn by charming
Cruzian characters have impress
ed me deeply.
Students with gracious manners
and kind hearts have stimulated
me to find in them the creative
talent that which the Island
needs for a better future for
closer Human Relations.
These students are giving to
their hands those skills and CO
ordination which for generations
have kept our citizens as active
members in society. They have
opened their eyes to a new world
that of nature--where the abund
ance of form-color-textures ma
terials are a stimulus to them
and to every child which they will
have the opportunity to lead.
Art is no longer considered, a
luxury in society, it is on the con
trary the expression of society,"
a need to respond to environment
freely
AS a new friend of this COM
munity I would like to encourage
a program of arts and skills that
could touch the lives of every
child in this territory--especially
those that have been mentioned
as problems in the education of
the group.
Active hands--hands at work.
could be one of the solutions of
many of these problems. Where
leisure time is not spent wisely
the summer months in any COM
munity where the children have
not been trained to develop hob
bies or past-time activities--make
the lives of these children unbear
able, monotonous, and some mis-
conduct is apt to APP
pear.

in art release energy through 9TH

A WORD FOR MTER-1sLAND SPORTS

A WORD O INTERISLAND SPORTS
OVER II PAST weekend the AmaEanS of St. Thomas
mas been our guests, playing several games with the Crucians.
ot CroN, putting up an admirable fight, emerged the victors.
But who won or lost is not the most important thing, AS we
see it, the spirit of good craftsmanship, and opportunity to
participate in clean sports, and to play for the sake of the
game are far more significant, and taken in that spirit produce
greater and more satisfactory results.
WHEN 1T WAS definitely known that the St. Thomas
team would play here, the local boys had to turn to the gen.
erosity of local businessmen and others for funds necessary to
entertain the visitors, and to purchase a new ball, which was
sorely needed. The Parks & Fairgrounds Commission, much
as it would have liked to, was not in a position to make its
contribution, in this respect, and this is regretable. As it is the
chairman of the Commission, seeing the situation assumed
the responsibility personally and secured a ball for use of the
team. There can be no better purpose to which funds at the
disposal of the Fairgrounds Commission could be put, for
clean sports develop healthy bodies, strong minds, and clean
living, all Of which are attributes which any community
should strive to furnish its young people.
EVERYTHING CONNECTED with the games, and the
visit turned out as expected. And this gives encouragement
that a program Of interisland sports could and should be
put forward with teams in all sports competing in each island
according to a well arranged and carefully planned schedule
In addition to the Playground Commission, the two Depart
ments of Welfare could prove very valuable in helping to set
the stage for the planning and execution Of these schedules.
Unfortunately, we on this end, find ourselves very limited so
far as funds are concerned, and this in turn actually prevent
us striking out in any overall, or extensive plans.
TO E ATTACK this problem, it might be well il
some thought be given to it the very next time that the Coun-
ellis meet, and from such a beginning the communities could
be asked to make contributions, thus helping to furnish such
funds as are necessary to carry out the plans. It is indeed en-
, 1949-07-28

couraging to note the manner in which the weekend program
was conducted, and it points the way to bigger and better
interisland sports competition.
