With the policy of the Methodist Church this paper has nothing what ever to do but proposes to call attention of lis readers to the fno that amusements of all kinds or detrimental according to use or abuse or them The philos ophy Of living long ago adducted the adage All work and no play makes lack a dull boy and the reverse of this Is true All play and no work I makes Jack good for nothing play Both ancient and modern history record the recreations of the people of the world Some of these recrea tions like the Olympic games of the Greeks were made a means to an end beside supplying amusement others carried to extremes like Die combats of the Romans and the bullfights of Spaniards simply ministered to the baser and more brutal nature of those who witnessed and participated The Olympic games developed courage strength endurance skill and moral fortitude The brutal combats of the Romans and bullfights of the Span iards debased and gendered a thirst for blood satiated only when the last victim had been sacrificed In the one was use in the other abuse The sports and pastimes of the peo ple of today are useful as healths preserving and mindinvigorating re creation as they are participated In moderately So long as men and wo men boys girls remain masters of their amusements they de rive benefit rather than injury But when they mastery of themselves and give Ihcrriselves entirely to of pleasure making games and pastimes the end of all pleasure they in abuse of recreation to such extent as necessarily to receive injury rather than benefit Too many people today are slaves of pleasure contributing little or nothing to hu man advancement In any direction In and of themselves cards arc neither beneficial or harmful A game of whist at the proper moment and for a projter- period gives mental exercise that frequently relieves the mind from the- drudgery of thought in business anA profession Yet let the game come to an Improper lime and lust for an unreasonably

before the moving picture made Its appear ance only Die show decidedly risque could be regarded a success from the boxoffice viewpoint Art had been so completely sacrificed to dollars ami cents that the theater had little legi timate claim for support because the Influence It exerted was decidedly detrimented to society Cards dancing and Die theater have been abused as much by people who supply entertainment as by hose who employ them for this purpose when the former begin to use them right the latter will do so And this suggests Instead of placing a ban upon them It may possibly be more
