j THE CHILD’S RIGHT TO PLAY.
For years and years The News has
used every effort to further any move
ment looking to the advancement oi
the children —their work and their
play, and we have always held tc the
(position that play is almost as neces
sary to the young one as food. He
must have his pastime as well as his
work to perform. Along this line we
take pleasure in reproducing an edi
torial (from thie esteemed Valdosta
Times erf this vdry subject. It says:
“The right to play is a heritage of
'childhood, * aml-the one who denies
or th child in the exercise
pf that right is robbing the little one
of something which cannot be replac
ed. Play is the juvenile method 01
“working £ff using up surplus
energy and promoting growth and de
velopment.
“Our schools are coming more and
more to recognize this, and school
athletics have come into almost uni
versal favor in the higher grades. Eut
the younger children have a claim on
juis that must not be protested. The
{child needs and must have play
grounds. It is easy enough to say
that the past genera t 4 ..1 g*. along
without playgrounds. Grilled. They
also g;t along without electric
telephones, phonographs, movies, au
tomobiles, and a va“e v of r rer
tii F-a: are every day :jncs3si-‘'s
to ih
A Iso, during '.V last generation
muph more than half the people lived
in the country or the small town.
There they had many facilities for
play that are denied the child of to
klay. There were the long trumps in
.the wdbds; the nutting parties; the
.‘old swim min’ hole;’ the places where
fish did bite, apd no ‘closed season.’
These proved natural and healthy out
let for youthful energy. But the city
lad of today and .even in the moder
ate siized town, has very little chance.
“We are living,in a strenuous age.j
The child is forced, all too soon, to
aid in providing a portion of the fam
ily indome. It means work after
school hours and on Saturdays, even
if school must, not he given up. This
cuts the play time to the ’recess’ pe
riods at school and to 1 ich times as
may be left from regular work in the
summer. For such children, play
grounds are a necessity.
“Play cannot be left to the devices
of the children. It should be directed
and supervised. That town which has
a playground, properly equipped and
supervised, is. especially fortunate. It
keeps the boys and girls off the
streets; directs their energy in the
right way, promotes health; provides
proper associates; gives a higher mor
al tone. Sociologists declare that the
playground will prove one of the
greatest aids in solving the- problem of
the bad hoy—that it will keep the
boys away from the- reformatory.
“Give the child a cjiance to grow as
nature intended. Give them a place
to play and provide him with a means.
It will be one of the best investments
that any body of taxpayers can make
for it will prove a saving rather than
att expense.**
FRANCE COMING BACK.
Francois coming back.
From the Paris Bureau of the New
York Hdraid comes the gratifying
news of the overwhelming success of
the public subscription of 1,200,000.000
franc tc bond Issues tpf mining com
pantos of northern France. Previous
Issues of similar reconstruction pur
poses in other fields have been snap

daily estimating that the French peo
ple's investing capacity In such dim*
Hons will run not less than the huge
total of ten billions of franca a year.
Ten billions of franco a year was

he counted on to put so prodigious
sum every year into investments ir
the devastated area alone is a tribute
to their genius not merely f. r produe
thg wealth in national biflk but for
saving a good share of It.
tt was only the other day that the
French High Commission in (New
York startled the commercial inter
sts of throo continents with its an
nouncement that In February the for
eign trade balance of France, for the
first time since 1914. had turned in
her tavort | AWiut a complete trans

All this means, as the New York
j Herald said, not merely that France
' can go on purchasing more and more
raw materials abroad to put into fin
ished goods for export. It means that
r French exchange will rise and rise,
1 as the New York Herald has predicted
for it aud ( the higher the franc value
rises in the American and other for
eign exchange markets, the greater
will become France’s purchasing pow
er to take still more raw materials in
markets abroad. It means that France
again growing richer at home and
more active in the commerce of the
world because of her surplus produc
tion . and saved wealth available for
new and bigger investments, will
soon be well up among those out in
the economic forefront of Europe.
BOARD OF TRADE MEMBERSHIP.
The question frequently is asked
not alone in Brunswick, bint in every
city where a Board of-Trade or simi
;lar organization is functioning, “What
does an individual get out of member
ship in such a body?”
There are many people paying
. school taxes who have no children
who might ask the question, “What
do I get out of the schools?” but who
tvants to live in a town where there
art no .seho Is? There are a great
many business men who never go to
church, neither do they belong to
'any. They might say “What do I get
out of the church?’’ but what wants to
live in a town where there are no
Yh arches?
A great deal of the work c,f a Board
of Trade is of a rbutlne character, of
yen rse. It divides itself into two class
es—lnitiation and prevention Mifch
of the work of an association cf cit
izens is to do that Intangible some
thing called enterprise; alsb the de
veloping of the personality of the city.
The child goes to school for months
and years and at no particular time
can you measure In cubic inches the
mental growth and development of
’ hat child, yet somehbw or other grad
nelly the youth develops into man
’vrod and imperceptibly to the naked
°ye intelligence does grow. So the
churdh has worked quietly on Individ-#
•tals and has been instrumental in the
same imperceptible manner in devel
oping character and virility. No one
can mea*sure this moral growth. In
like manner, the Board .of Trade
verks for the betterment of the city
and community. You can’t tell the
oartlcular day or week or year that
the Board of Trade was Instrumental
in doing the nfost,good. Yet somehow
in Sbme way, perceptibly or impercep
tibly, Brunswick has grown and is a
b’gger and better and more prosper
ous city than she was. Many agen
cies, of course, have contributed to
this condition and surely this organ
ization of ettizens has been responsi
ble for a substantial growth.
The questions before a worthwhile
citizen of Brunswick are not "What do
n"* family and I get out of Brunswick
schools?” “What do we get out of
the churches?” “What does my bus
Iness get out of its government—lts
Board < f Trade?”, but rather “What
am I putting ir .0 my city to have a
part In Its * gress?" Where can 1
.be of great st service 4n the place I
am making my home?” “Does the
world owe me a living, or do I owe the
world a service?” "Am 1 a vacuum
dearer or a produce.*? ’ “Is my i-i\rr
it* harness a breast strip or a back
strap’” "Have 1 been . rbciploit *r a
contributor?"
