WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. 15. (JP)
—Not all of the activities of the De
partment of Labor are directed to the
employment conditions of workman
In the recent annual report of Secre
tary Davis to Congress, a section re
lating to the activities of the Child
ren’s Bureau of Department of Labor
tells of work done in the interest of
recreation.
“A bulletin on play and recreation
for blind children was written during
the year. It contains directions for
games and plays adapted to little
children and to older children; sug
gestions for scouting, music, garden
in, pets, dramatics, dancing, handi
crafts, special days, and parties; and
suggestions with reference to the
equipment of playground, playroom,
and gymnasium.
“The dance-hall ordinances of
towns and cities of 15,000 population
or over are being assembled and
summarized, and a field study of the
methods of ordinance enforcement
and administration and of the pro
vision made iby the community for
the recreational needs of the adoles
cent boy and girl is being made in
15 cities and towns. The report will
deal chiefly with the kind of super
vision or control of public amuse
ments which has been found effec
tive, the type of community recrea
tion wmcn nas appeaieu auu neiu
young people, and the various ex
periments—successful and unsuccess
ful—which communities have tried
in the development of work along
these two lines.
“A miniature model of a 5-acre
playground for city children was
planned and has been constructed. It
is an exact reproduction to scale of
a playground adequately equipped
for daily use by approximately 300
boys and girls, including both young
er and older children. It is avail
able for loan purposes to conferences
and exhibitions, and the requests for
it have already been more .than could
be supplied.”
ARMY SEEKING
YOUNG DOCTORS
FOR OFFICERS
EXAMINATIONS WILL BE CON.
DUCTED THRUOUT COUN
TRY NEXT MONTH.
WASHINGTON, D. C.; Dee. 14 (/P)
—The United State army is seeking
young doctors between 23 and 32 for
appointment as first lieutenants in
the Medical corps of the Regular
Establishment. Announcement was
I
I made by the War Department today
that examinations to fill fifty-nine ex
isting vacancies would be held thru
out the country January 11 to 15 in
clusive.
THie examinations this year are
made open to the medical profession
at large by terms of an authorization
permitting acceptance of qualified
candidates into the Organized Re
serves ifor the purpose of taking the>
tests, present laws requiring appli
cants to be Reserve officers.
Eligibility is confined to physically
fit male citizens between the ages
of 23 and 32 holding the degree of
doctor of medicine, the announce
ment says. Candidates must have
followed a four-year course at an ac
ceptable medical school with at least
one year’s hospital training. Former
: Medical officers and internes in mil
itary hospitals with a year of service
/during the World war, however, are
exempt from the latter requrement.
Frank Williamson, of Brighton,
Eng., walked into the sea, intending
to drown himself, but came out when
he found the water was too cold.
Rev. Oliver Saylor has protested
against an advertising sign erected
by the town of Azusa, Cal., near a
proposed dam site. The sign read:
“Azusa, the dam city.”
PRIDE
Religious persona have often taught
that pride is a sin. Perhaps, but it
depehds a good deal on what we are
proud of.
Old Samuel Johnson said: “That is
false dignity indeed which is content
to depend upon others.” To be proud,
in moderation, of pulling one's own
way in the world is
a far different
thing from being proud of not doing
one’s own washing, and not doing
enough actual other work to pay for
one’s washing.
Sarah Bernhardt, when attacked for
her accent, said: “Amsterdam was the
birthplace of my humble parents. . .
I am a daughter of the great Jewish
race, and my somewhat uncultivated
language Is the outcome of our con
fused wanderings.”
If that is pride, as Patrick Henry
might have said, make the most of it.
An exchange tells of a man who
is suoh a hypocrite that he eats
cloves to make his ifriends think he
has had a drink.
