Fifth Article Of
Series Education
Week In The U. S.
Following is the fifth ar
ticle in the series dealing with
education week, written by
Sup’t. Bloom of the Public
School.—Editor’s Note.
The School and Recreation
With the introduction of
labor saving machinery and
the specialization in industry
which result in shorter hoors
of employment, there is an
ever increasing need for
wholesome recreation. In for
mer years when the popula
tion was largely agrarian,
there were sufficient home
duties to occupy all of the
time of the children as well
as the adults. Now there is a
great need for activities in
which a person might engage
during his leisure time.
There are innumerable wor
thy activities in which a child
may take part in as many as
he desires. Practically every
normal child likes to play,
and there is a great variety
of physical pursuits that tend
to develop healthy bodies.
Here we cannot stress the
point too strongly that the
game should be played for the
satisfaction and development
it offers rather than beating
the other fellow. However,
all recreational activities are
not physical. Other vocation
al fields are music, literature,
dramatics, art, and interest
ing hobbies.
The school is endeavoring
to do its part to encourage
those activities which permit
an individual to spend his
spare time in a manner that
will afford the greatest enjoy
ment. It not only encourages
these activities, but makes
them a part of the regular
program. Children are furn
ished the necessary facilities
and these activities, often re
ferred to as extra-curricular,
are carried on under compet
ent supervision. It is felt that
the wrong attitude may be
built up by constant reference

to the evils of unworthy ac
tivities. Instead each child
should be afforded the oppor
tunity to engage in those ac
tivities which are not only
pleasing but are socially, mor
ally, and physically uplifting.
If a person’s time is sufficient
ly occupied with worth while
things, he will not be tempt
ed to engage in degrading
pastimes.

orials to Will Rogers. In
keeping with his love of flying
and those interested in avia
tion, the expenses of gather
ing the fund are being borne
by the aviation industry.

dent Jackson has available,
literature pertaining to the
set-up of the Will Rogers
Memorial Commission and its;
purposes.
While, Will Rogers was en- I

with Wiley Post when they 1
were killed, it is believed that
he bore the same kindly
friendship of Nomeites who
have read, heard and seen
him at one time or another.
Nome regretted poignantly,
his sudden death, and the loss
of the opportunity to see this
great American. What con
tributions any Nomeites feel
they wish to make toward his
memorial, they are requested
to communicate with the local
bank.
