Br.Fraitk Crane Sam} A Word About Play The difference between work and play is that work is activity for future reward and play is activity for its own sake. We lay bricks' for. the money we obtain; We play tennis for the fun we get out of it. Professionalism is decried in the realm of athletics, not because in dividuals capitalize their skill, but because as soon as money is paid for playing games the money, becomes tifke reward instead of the jcy of playing. Playing is no longer play; it has become work. An interesting book on "Game* and .Recreational Methods fir Clubsi Camps an J. S-rout?,!' by Charles F. Smith, is- a valuable, contribution to the subject of play because it shows how to organize inherent desire for play in children and gives practical information. The best education and development has always come from play. When we are at work at what interests us cur faculties grow best. Fcod eaten with relish nourishes more than the same food taken un d*r 'compulsion. The same principle' holds true for tasks and responsibili ties. If taken with distaste they never benefit as they do when taken with joy. A game entered into with delight always is better for the health than a "daily dozen" if approached with distaste. Physical culture is mo-t effective when taken as play. j TNe best education and develop- j ment also comes as play. A game of authors or a of?**- j word puzzel contributes more last- 1 ing information than a history of literature read under compulsion or A certain number of prescribed hours of reading the dictionary. Education in the past has largely ignored the play element. Children have \>een made to study history and geography with the promise of rewards in grades when they have finished, nat by the in ducement of the fun of learning them, if they know how to play at History. an J geography there would be no need for rewards. In childhood organized play does three very impoitant things. It teaches leadership, co-operation, and the need of obeying rules. If you don't keep up the rules you are out. You can't "make up t] '* rules as you go." There are certain regulations that have to be obeyed c r there is. no game. In life there are always rules that can't be ign: | 1". If a person fails to get an appreciation of the im partance Of rules in yOuth the way *?f life will be hard for him. All in all, play holds an important place in life. As in all, play N dz As well as "L< f 1, t f ch u? to j pray," there is ueed for the sup plication, aLord, teach us to . play."
