Pity jL more me uuy or gin wnose innocent games are discouraged, frowned upon, and decried as inventions of the devil. The rnaii or woman whose heart isn't gladdened by the shouts of pure joy from the playground, who doesn't see, inthe friendly rivalry and human contact that games afford, one of our surest and safest means of aiding in the physical and spiritual growth of the childsuch a person has indeed a bad perspective from which to view and aid in the develop ment of those qualities of heart, head and hand out of whiclrtrue citi zenship is built. Unalterably do we believe that only out of hard labor are the best things of life to come. But we would have our boys play hard that they may work hard : learn, to latifrh and sinor that th and sing on when Life's knocks are Jiardest.

The time is fast coming, too, when the whole neighborhood will take a deep interest in its athletic teams, and will turn out en masse at the field day contests that are going to prove a great factor in rounding out our future community life. Isn't it our duty to encourage such wholesome- things? Isn't it our business as fathers and citizens to foster that which will add to the happiness and permanence of our rural life ? ' We believe we are still preserving our neutrality when we say that the English, with all their faults, have a steadiness and Courage that no impartial critic can fail to admire.

Who will say that the spirit of "fairness, of sound iudmiienf. of pluck that has placed the English flag in the four corners of the earth, has not been strengthened by the English man's playground associations and competitions with his fellows? By all means teach your boy to worlcand to work hard; but, as you value his future wel fare, teach him also to think, and think hard and straight. To do this the boy's nose mus. not be kept so close to the grindstone of hard labor that he can never raise his head to glance at the vision of better things that lie beyond. Make a partner of that boy of yours; join him in his work and in his. play. , Go out next Saturday afternoon and help cheer the home team to victory; and if all the places on the team are not filled, lend a hand yourself.
