By M. G. Johanson, Mgr. Why Don’t You Play? HEN Edward Bok, noted editor, retired from business he did so, he said, TO PLAY. Playing, to him, reant: “cultivating diversions, more time for good friends, fine sportsmanship, good health, and the satisfaction of his stored-up longings and dreams of many years,” years |when business did not give him leisure to play. But he is one of the few persons who can drop work to take up play. He can retire from business. To the great majority this is impossible. But it ought not be impossible | e-|to take off some hours of EVERY day to PLAY. We can be wise, within the limits of business. We can play, in our leisure time, sensibly, profitably. Play is today being preached as never before. national tonic, a medicine. Walter Camp urges one kind of play—regular health ex- ercise, dispensable. pressure on the Western front, from time to time, and played golf on the quiet links of France. If Haig could do that, why must you keep your nose to the grindstone all the time? Theodore Roosevelt played. Harding does. Wilson plays, when his health permits, Ford and Edison play. Why don’t you? play. a Dempsey, or to follow a Chick Evans about the links, themselves. |are producing more leisure time in all our lives. In a city of |350,000 there are 1,400,000 leisure hours every day. How will they be spent? In what kind of play, or diver- sions, or satisfactions or hobbies? A national organization, called community service, with headquarters in New York, has been organized to assist hours of life abundant chances for all the people to enjoy life with play and profit. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy! It, too, maketh of Jill a°mighty dull lady! For Potential Parents ‘SIDE PREPARED” is the slogan that Miss Alma Biznell would promulgate to potential fathers and mothers. She made known her views at the national convention of The Society for Vocational Education, meeting in Atlantic City. Miss Biznell is assistant professor of child training at the University of Minnesota, and because of her experience there her opinions appear to be backed by considerable wisdom. Miss Biznell advocates the institution of a general college course in the universities wherein the duties and _responsi- bilities of parenthood would be considered. There she would have proper training given to the prospective fathers and mothers of the nation. Such courses, Miss Biznell maintained, would result in the prevention of mistakes }that annually cost the lives of a great many children. There is something inherent about a woman that gen- erally instinctively tells her how to care for the baby. There is generally a dear grandma to fall back upon, too. But who will say that the prospective father doesn’t need such a course? Why, he generally gets red in the face if he’s asked even to hold the little fellow for a moment. And like as not the new dad will hand little Billy back to mother Or man! Surely, Miss Biznell would be doing the coming fathers lof the nation a world of good, if she could even get colleges |to include in the curriculum a course for potential fathers \that would dwell particularly on the art of holding, dis- robing and pinning up the new baby.
