AMERICAN CHILDREN BRINGING GREAT JOY TO FRENCH BROTHERS
(By Associated Press) PARIS, April 6. American children have brought happiness and laughter 'into the lives of their little brothers and sisters In France. The pennies and dimes which they might have spent for candy and sweetmeats have enabled the Junior Red Cross to give the children of France, in their name, twenty-five playgrounds and innumerable games. . . All the games and recreations which form so much a part of the lives of their little kinsfolk in America are taught the French boys and girls. As proof of their appreciation of the .generosity of America's help, the
French themselves have now raised a fund almost equal to that contributed by the children of the United States and are planning to establish a playground of the American type in every important district of France. Several of the playgrounds established by the Americans are In Paris and are directed by recreation experts from the United States. The averago French child, especially the abnormal
child born during or immediately after
the war, is not inclined to play with that robust energy and that spirit of teamwork necessary to its mental, physical and moral development.
Moreover, games like baseball and basketball are not common in France as
in America. They must be taught.
One of the principal tasks of the American instructors is to teach the French child a spirit of fair play and
unselfishness.
The French child is an individualist, playing alone and guarding jealously' its own toy. He does not fraternize or make friends among the children of the neighborhood. As a result, he becomes selfish and one-sided. The Americans are trying to show theso French children the happiness that comes from community play and teamwork. They are introducing group games to overcome this selfishness and to inculcate qualities of fairness, good nature and gallantry.
