"The greatest undeveloped resource in the world is that of leisure time," was one of Mr. Hull's statements. "I believe it takes more organization to care for the people's . leisure time than for any other thing in the world. Men, community service is one of the finest things of which I know. Since its organization in Connersville, 1 haven't heard one criticism. The investment will pay you a large return." Mr. Hull described the transformation of a vacant and useless Connersville lot in the center of the city, into a play ground benefitting young and old. He said that it was one of the finest things community service had undertaken, and that it so proved the worth of the movement, that the city at once raised $12,000 with which to conduct a full year 'round program.
