" TME PLAY SPIRIT
The lack of the “play spirit” in th>
home lea'ds v\hil(lren of .lt:)fl'uy to con
ter their interests outside of the homé
This “play spirit” must be present in
the home it it {s to be made “truly
a home instead of an American plan
hotel,” according to J. W. Faust, of
mmamd{ha and Recréation Assoc
idtion ‘of America, and chairman of
the standing committee on ‘recréatioft
of the Natfonal Congress of Parents
and Teachers. Mr. Faust's article
calied “The Dramatic Element in Edu.
cation M the Home or the Home and
the Play Sprit.” appears in the cur.
rent %a*thq ‘Child Welfare Mag:
nms; ! e ?t(tg issup being given to

PBißYE¥Gund tedeh many of the things

paT 68— ‘w‘téh&ni‘& Wwere Mearred at
‘héme, fi Faust says that this éndtige
i W ' i ed 4ud the aftractiveness
[1 great extent by Lh-e‘ absence of the
‘[play spirit in the home and the indif
‘erence of parents.
. “The play spirit “is as essential to
‘,li‘e Jightening o fthe whole family
ife as yeast is to breal,” Mr. Faust
arites.
“Experiecnce in social work with
‘amilies in need of help ‘ln solving
their problems ghows the drabness of
ifz= in €0 many places .called home.
As Dr. Galpin says, “Toil and toil
weens alone do not make for love of
‘ataerland.” - Other memories must
e added—scenes of love, play and
vorship. It is even so with the home
where the love of fatherland begins.
Joseph Lee gocs a st=p further in
saying ‘When the home‘ceases to be
v place for the child to play, the rea-‘
son for its existence will disappear’.”
Juvenile delinquency records show
che need for wholesome play, Mr.
ffauzt points out. He stresses the.
need of play for parents and childron
for its practical benafits, |
“It rejuvenates the elders, (we ul»‘
solutely know it does), it restores‘
lervous stahility, it gives grace and
noise amd heauty to the hoy,” writes
Mr. Faust. “It is the prineipal mo>-
3.\lum of physical and character de
velopment in children, It teaches
colerance, fairness ang good Sports
manship in all things. Then, tco, it
laB a therapeutic value in relaxing
minds, refreshimz bodies, and thus
helping to keep the doctor away. One
health service clinic prescribes var
fous forms of play and recreation for
its patients, feeling that it is quite
as Importnn.t as diet and hygiene to
keep the hodies, mind: and spirits
e
“If you would have home be an at
traction of the first m‘:agnitli(le to
your children,” Mr. Faust counsels
“first have the play spirit, the joy in
all thingys, and second, be ‘at home’
to them, if not every night, at least
certain evenings each week when the
whole family, by definite nppolmpl'em‘.;
has an ‘at home' togethesZ -*. -&
Concluding his article, Mr. Faust
says: :
“Like all.,else in life worth while,
the play spirit doe: not com placid
ly and benignly in and sit down at
the hearth stone. It must ‘be laid
hold on. It must be captured and
possessed. But the cffort involved
and the re~so"cv[.d:wss. patience and
ingenuity required are a small price
to pay for comradeship bétweeu par
ents and children, for the enrichment
of home life and for the sheer joy of
being a member of-the home it re
craates.” L gy
SOME THOUGHT THE OTHER WAY
There are many people in the
state who thought that the educa
tional bond bill should not have
heen defeated. Even some of
thcze opposed to road bonds are
of this opinion.—Savannah Press.
And ‘some thought the other way.
Clearly, the road bonds had at least
a promise 01" something with which
they m!ghr‘ I t‘lmum:d., The others
did not. ~ With ihe promise of 4 mil
licn a year in interest and a half mil
lion as a retiring fund, the Georgia
tax payvers ilud rot a cent offered over
and above their regular state income
to meet it.. The gchools and univer
sitie:, over and above all that, still
had to have their current needs, and
these at every jump increasing. From
what source was the money to come?
We are already taxed to the legal
lHmity L A
Beotter fing a way to provide a mil
lion and a half a year to give to con
solidated schools and to university
expansion needs and use that as we
get-#. It would net be long then be
fore we had these improvements-—and
the chances are it would be far more
wigely spent. All our money then
might go into the things we want in
school improvement and the million
a year in interest on bonds saved.
Not everybody wanted the school
ponds—we are quite sure of that.

THE 6O6RDELE DISPATCH
THE DANGEROUS LIQUOR CAR
Mo&x&xie[%urver: R R
A timely truth is contained in the
following editprial clipped from the
Albany Herald:
A young woman was killed on a
highway near Americus Saturday af
ternoon when the car in which she
was riding was run down by another
car in which were several negroes. A
well known physician who witness
ed the accident stated that when ke
¢aw the negroes’. car approaching he
observed it carried a broken radius
rod, and he signalled to them to stop
But the car speeded up, swerved
just as it met the car traveling in the
opposite direétion, and the fatal col
lision resulted. The negroes ,fled.
leaving the car, and when it was
found to contain two kegsz of liquor
officers understood why the driver
had refused to stop when hailed by
the physieian, who only wanted tc
give warning of danger due to the
broken radius rod. |
Thousands of accidents on Ameri
cdn ‘highways cvery year are caused
by liguor cars, They are the cars
whose drivers are afraid to stop—
who “steps on the eas’” when hailed
and invite accident because of the
high speed at-which they travel. The
driver of a liquor car isn't going to
be caught if he can avoid capture
for capture may mean confiscation
of hiz automobile, arrcgt, possibly
tine or imprisonment. He is suspi-
