Baker, Secretary of War, at a National Conference on War-Camp Community Recreation, Washington, D. C. No army ever before assembled in the history of the world has had so much thought given and so much labor performed in the interest of it?* social organization. It is no reflection on anybody to say that the ancient method of assembling an army wah first to have some sort of inspiring music marched through th* street, to have a local oratorical outburst on the subject of the particular cause for which the army was desi" cd, to have young men follow the music and then be taken off to make their own conditions, and then to bn sent to the battlefront with that much training. But the United States is a civilized country. Nobody realized how rivilijoH ? ?">" ?..si - v. ?r?.-> uutu we assemn'p-" this army, for instantly there came from all parts of the country a demand that this army should not be raised as armies hitherto had bee"* that should not be environed as armies hitherto had been, but that ch arrangements should be mad' as would insure that these soldiers when actually organized into an armv. would represent and carry out t.h? very highest deals of our civilization For a great many years in Americ< we have been struggling almost do* pondently with the problem of tho large cities. We knew that the large city was economically and industrially more efficient. We knew that by getting people close to the place where they were to work, knittin" them in large groups w,e multiplied the industrial output of the individual We knew that by getting people into large cities we were able to extend over a wider surface the so-called conveniences of modern civilization: that people could live in better houses: that they could have better sanitation; that they could have befter medical care; that they could have freer access to public libraries and opportunities for culture; that, thev could have better schools. But we realized that we paid a price for the city, and that price consisted in the tempestuous and heated temptations of city life, and every man who has had any opportunity to studv city life has had his mind more or less he'd in a state of balance between its advantages and its disadvantages. It used to be said that a fnmilw ran out in three generations living in a city, and that it was necessirv to replenish the vitality of citydwellinp people by consant draft? upon the unspoiled people of the countrtyside; and that was. wlearned, because of the vices whict> prew up in cities, and because a" of those restrains of neighborhood opinion were pone. A bov in th'> country was known to everybody of his neighborhood. Tlis misconduct was marked. The boy in the city could be a saint in the first ward, where he lived, and a scapeprace in the tenth ward, without anybody in the first ward diseoverinp it. Thar-was an absence of that pressure of neiphborhood opinion, that oppnrt.ur ity to cultivate the pood opinion of old neiphbors, which was evident ithe countryside where conduct wa more obvious. Now, for a lonp time we tried a perfectly wronpheaded process about the city; we tried to pass laws and to enforce them by policemen wbV? would cure all these il's T do t mean that we oupht not to have so>vr. policemen, but we imapined that our sole salvation lay in the nassa re <> laws and in the employment of po!:,< men. And I can remember when ' was mayor of a middle-western cit". that every now and then some me ment would tret its start to have a curfew law passed in that city, to make everybody po to bed at. a ner ticular time. Some laws of that kirl were passed, and some sunreme coir's held they were unconstitutional a ' some held they were constitional but no court had any ripht to pass on the real fact involved, which was that they were ineffective. And then all of a sudden the discovery was made that the way 'o overcome the temptations ??nd vices of a errent city was to offer adequate opportunity for wholesome recreni i->r. and eniovment: that if you wanted to pet a firebrand out of the hand of a child the way to do it was neither to club the child nor to prab *be flrubrand, but to offer in exchanpe for it a stick of candy! And so there has prown up in America this new attitude, which Si ..hum its expression in public playgrounds ,in the organization of community amusements ,in the inculcation throughout the entire body of younp people in the community of substantially the same form of social inducement which the American college, in modem times ,has substituted for the earlier system of social straints. And now that we hare these rreat bodies of young mea te consider, we N i JB. v' KING OF THE BELGIANS !
