There is play with the sense of touch when one rolls in a soft hed, or lies in the warm bath, or uncovers the head to the fanni of the breeze. * * * We play with another sense, that of hearing, when we delight): in any sound. From the tin whistle which soothes and breathes wonder to the child it is only a few steps in education to the music which charms the cultivated concert-goer. The child plays first with rhythm, then with the beauty of tone, then with the melody. The man adds the qualities of more intelligent appreciation and judgment. Prof. Groos accepts thr theory that the child’s playful experiments with sound have led to all musical in- ventions, * * * From the kieking of baby legs and the tossing of baby arms the evolution of play brings the active games of boy and girl. All these are movement-play. From the recognition of certain persons and events frequent te his life the child develops memory and observation. Tence comes a play of thought, hence again imitative play. Out of these spring playful illusions and such pretense as the play of “keeping house.” Finally, the imagination of the man. * * * Vain to try and put Prof. Groos into a column. The play of whieh he has written takes up a tifetime. Wherever this abstract of a few chapters stirs one to read the whole b6ok a good mission will be served. This thing is sure: In training up a child in the way he should go it is necessary to provide with eare for the play instiner, Play makes the man.
