Runaway Time
Stamford’s Play Week idea is just the thing needed here.
Let all lend every help and encouragement to it during its
duration this week. .
It will lessen those aH too frequent attacks of Spring fever.
'1: is the Spring-time‘s logical bridge between the out-of-doors and
the school.
Let the kids have all the fun possible and parents and teachers
equal joy in helping the youngsters hav’e their Spring party.
Spring is runaway time. Truancy lists grow long. J‘uvenile
courts are busy. Distracted parents importune the police. ‘ Where
is my wandering boy (or girl) tonight!" becomes for a space the
national hymn.
There may not be any plan which will halt this runaway army
entirely. It might help some if the instinct to rove in the spring
were recognized for the perfectly natural, healthy impulse it is,
and plans to direct it wisely took the place of futile efiorts to
crush it.
Of course the kids want to go to the woods and the parks, and
down to the piers to watch the men fish. Let them! Just dovetail
the trips in with the school work and essential home tasks. Plan
bikes for and with them after school and on ofl days. Short trolley
trips to scenes less familiar than those right around home will work
wonders for that restless feeling. If it is too cold to go to the woods,
let them cook their supper over a camp fire in the back yard.
As for school, frequent play and lesson periods out of doors do
not impede essential progress in education; they are an aid to it.
Also, they make the school day infinitely more attractive and lessen
the truancy average accordingly.
Of course it is a little trouble to see that the child satisfies his
spring wanderlust happily and safely within reach of home. But is it
any more trouble than having him run away to be exposed to un-
known hardships and evil associations!
Refugees Must Work
The Red Cross leaders in charge of feeding the Greek refugees
at Athens have adopted an old pioneer rule—’“He that will not work,
neither shall he eat.” It has been decided that refugees must help
with sanitation and other work. A regular system of working shifts
has been established and any individual who refuses to take his
turn goes hungry. '
This ruling is not only fair as regards the immediate situation.
It has a broader bearing. These refugee hordes, cut loose from all
their natural associations will become a menace to the entire world
unless they can be held at least in some part to definite responsi-

The Time To Save
This is another glorious year of opportunity for the wage-
earner. He has steady work at wages which would have been -
considered princely a few years ago. Generally speaking, he is
making almost as much as he made at the peak of the war boom,
' and his living expenses are not so high as they were then. In the:
j seasonal trades particularly—and this has special application to the '
building trdes—he is in position to get ahead more rapidly than
ever before.

the answer to this question, for the workman himself and for the
country. It is probably true 'thdt a typical wage-earner’s family,
by living this year in a comfortable, normal way, without extrav~
ggance, can save several times as much as in an average year, and
put itself ahead accordingly. On the other hand, it may indulge
‘ in a style of living which mean}: all the money coming in, leaving‘
