A rHoucn'r No man, when he hath lighted a candle, covereth it with a ves- sel. or putteth it under a bed; but setteth it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light—Lu. 8:16. ~ Light is the symbol of truth.—Lowell. (.- Backyard Playgrounds Years ago about the only objection to the habit of playing in the streets by children was that they got dirty. Many persons can re- member how in the days before automobiles they; used to make- mud pics and play ball in the streets in calm security. Few children were hurt in street accidents then. Today even the side streets of cities and towns are often dan-i gerous for use for children’s play. The number of children being run over by automobiles is tremendous, and these accidents blot out many young lives and cause infinite sorrow. Cities and towns are establishing many playgrounds. But a great many children are not. near such open spaces and they still. play in the streets. The suggestiomis made that children can be kept off the street Such a space is often only a kind of dump, where people get rid of waste stuff that they do not know what else to do with. It is frequently so occupied thh rub- by developing back yards as playgrounds. bish that the entire family avoids it as much as possible. This bulletin suggests sand boxes, horizontal bars, flying rings“ horizontal ladders, swings, teeters, playhouses, a pet house for rab- bits or dogs, basdtetball goals and golf driving nets as among the apparatus that children would enjoy in a back yard. Croquet is a back yard game that has amused millions of young- Many yards By such facilities a lot of rear spaces in Norwalk could be turned into playgrounds for neighbor- hood groups of youngsters, keeping them_near home and off the stcrs.‘and helped them develop skill with their hands. could take in small tennis courts. streets and promoting their comfort and health. A Reform Merger Something like a “reform trust” seems to have been organized. Three reform organizations, said to be the oldest in the country, have combined their resources and influences. They are the International Reform Bureau of the World Temperance Foundation, the \Vorld Prohibition Foundation andethe National Temperance Society. They are all to be known hereafter as the International Reform- Bureau. Their activity is to be concentrated against prohibition repeal, race- track gambling, prize fighting, salacious literature, Sunday theatri- cal performances and traffic in narcotic drugs. It is expected by many people that they will largely supplant the Anti-Saloon League. It is a combine to be welcomed. All of these objects are in line with good morals and sane living. They-are not, however; of any- where near equal importance. It is to be hoped that the reformers will put most of their em.- phasis on narcotic control and prohibition enforcement. Racetrack gambling is not a problem of national dimensions. Prize-fighting, while objectionable to”many people, means, little in the life of. the average citizen. Evil literature must be guarded against; but for the most part, public taste takes care of that. ‘As for Sunday shows, it is an open question now, iii many cities, whether they are desirable or undesirable. ’ \ r 4 Citizens of Two Countries “Once an Italian, always an Italian” has long been 'the policy of Italy.
