"On Hie playground the boy per forms practically every operation that makes up the process that men call democracy. "For instance, he chooses leader and follows him. He subordinates himself to the group.

obeys his own self-imposed rules, shares In the planning, prides himself on cooperating, and is continually measuring himself against others in both skill and sportsmanship. And he does all of this because he likes to. Education philosophers are trying as never before, to capture this secret of "happy growth" from the life on tho playground and to incorporate its magic in all of the boy's school work. "When the have succeeded in doing this, may tie organized athletics will be less important than they are now, but until then they will decline only at the peril of many values essential to the WHOLE LIVING of youth."

HOUSTON, principal of Edison school, whose small charges are pic tured on the page today as newcomers in organized playground activities, has given us an irwpirational message out of which grow thoughts and ideals that make for a community rich in its posses sion of active, purposeful youth. She rays: "Happiness, health, and certain priceless moral out-comes are everywhere recognized "irs the dividends on a community's investment In school playgrounds and athletic equipment. "The boy's natural element Is the out-of-doors. His other great needs are companionship and action. Xot mere movement, haw-ever, else calisthenics and folk-dancing would be as acceptable' to him as a contest on the grounds; but the yar not.

"He wants a goal which requires a strenuous drive to attain a drive with obstacles befitting his prowess, and a goal that is possible fori him to reach without thwarting delays from grown-ups. "Athletic games afford him these conditions of satisfaction and his happiness in wholesome leisure is assured for the present at least. "Provide him with wise supervision in sports, end health and character cannot fail to develop. The latter will be true growth because the moral impulses and restraints which comprise his ideal of good sportsmanship are immedi- the part of a bewildered audience that, after all, either as teacher cr parent, we live among our children very much a strangr.

Wlt.li Rudolph Lindquist, assist ant superintendent of schools presiding, more than seven hundred teachers from the elementary grades came to view this program of interpretative rhythms, folk dances, gymnastic steps and clogging demonstrated ly school children from kindergarten to sixth grade, inclusive. The one-time theory that dancing and the influence of dancing upon impressionable youth was more detrimental than constructive in the educational scheme has been laid away, along with many other ideas, in moth balls for all time" to come. IlnvcIiM-k Kills sa: "Dhim--lug is man's primitive anil ua-rural means of solf-riprevdon.

And dancing has come to lie of such great importance in the individual development of the child today that starting in the first year, special teachers have charge of this work throughout the elementary school The aim in rhythmic teaching of the internretaative form is to furnish to each child as broad a background as possible of musical knowledge and appreciation and enlargement of his own power of self-expression through natural movement Th patterns or which Ih. rhll dren maka from the combination of their mental interests will be crude, but they will have a far greater significance educationally ihnn any precise adult concepts which might be diluted for the child's use as they have been in the past." Waterman.

The keynote to the answer is quoted from La.

Salle. 'Natural dancing. seeks to intrpret a selection of music, an idea or an emotion through the natural movements of the body such as walking, skipping, running, leaping, and hopping. It must be free frtim posturings, posings, and studied positions of the hands, feet, and body. It must be free from ail that is not sincere." And joti will agree that At all characteristics of little children, sincerity is outstanding.

That Is why it was possible to bring all those groups of tiny dancers to a big auditorium last week and have them demonstrate original Interpretations of rhythmic activities in a way that held an adult audience siH'llbound at times. There was reason to marvel ai such a performance, and yet, upon reflection, it might pe paid that were it not for iiuit customs ana codes that eternally hamper the tendencies of childhood in tneir t(uest for natural and normal expressions of happiness, there would have been fewer exclamations of amazement and Incredulity and perhaps a keener -realization upon been organized.
