Community service, its ideals and methods, and best methods of advertising and acquainting a community with its objectives, were stressed at a joint district conference at Cincinnati yesterday by Robert E. Heun. Mr. Heun said: "The subject assigned me is 'Publicity and Education,' and inasmuch as I am myself still learning much of Community Service I believe the best way to make my talk is to tell you something of our experiences at Htchmond. Two years ago about a dozen heads of our various organizations, such as Rotary, Kiwanis, Woman's club, Elks' club, K. of C, churches, etc., requested national headquarters of Community Service to send a representative to Richmond to introduce Community Service to our people. In due time, Mr. Root, a national worker, was assigned to us, and promptly
began his work. Mr. Root's advertising of Community Service was introduced by personal call3 upon some of
our manufacturers and other business
men who employ a considerable number of people. His reception in most
cases was not very warm, but a sufficient number granted permission
for him to demonstrate the value f properly supervised recreation during leisure hours. Council Organized "A council of 50 was formed, and, in turn, an executive committee of 16. These bodies began functioning Immediately and progress was more rapid, with the exception that unfair advantage was taken of the generosity of national headquarters in our failure to raise funds to pay Mr. Root's expenses. Nevertheless, Mr. Root was permitted to remain here several months. I understand that national headquarters has now made a ruling against this method, and when cities
apply for education in Community
Service that particular city must bear a reasonable proportion of the expense entailed. Our executive committee held its meetings resrularlv.
and some progress was made, but as is usual in such cases without the support of the people necessary to finance the plan on foot, success is slow in coming. The newspapers of Richmond were very friendly and generous and space was given Mr. Root, and every effort made was well written up and given reasonable prominence. The public, however, did not seem to get the idea or make any attempt to find out just what we were trying to accomplish. National head
quarters finally brought us to life by notifying us that Mr. Root would be withdrawn on a certain date for service elsewhere. Slocum Selected "At a meeting of the executive committee it was decided to send one of our number to Chicago, ' where the members of a graduating class were just, about to be assigned to duty in various cities. Our school superintendent was selected to be sent, and, after looking over the applicants, he
returned and recommended P. H. Slocum, who will address your later. Personally, I feel that whatever success we have met with since is due
almost entirely to his efforts; but
that is not my subject. Mr. Slocum
began his work with a rush, and in a short time had made a great many friends not alone the people he worked with, but with the heads of
the factories and business houses where these people were employed. We found that folks began to take notice of Community Service, and
that our advertising was being done for us. Recreational leaders' classes
had been conducted under Mr. Root and Miss Wynans, and this work was
developed still farther by Mr. Slocum.
We received daily requests for these
leaders to assist at gatherings at churches, schools, clubs, etc. It was
then decided to put over a drive for
funds, and about a. -hundred men and women in Richmond were paired off.
prospects assigned them, and the effort was made to. raise $5,000. We
fell far short of that amount, but suf
ficient money was collected to en
courage us to go on, with the feeling
tnat uccess would come m time. Reach All Interests
"Neighborhood clubs, baseball
leagues, tennis matcnes, etc., were formed and arranged, and people
learned that Community Service was
something more than a mere word or name. We played no favorites either in class or creed, and thus reached
every interest in the city, establish ing confidence and winning suDDort
A music memory contest was arranged
ana proved a tremendous success Richmond Is noted for its laree num
ber of good musicians, and these co-'
operated to the full extent of their
ability. The opening concert at which
the program was played through for the first time was attended bv over
2,000 people, and hundreds took part in the competition. A famous picture
contest followed and was an even greater Buccess than the music memorv contest. Every man, woman and
child in Richmond talked pictures for,
weeks. My two boys, six and seven years of age, knew more about celebrated pictures and artists at the end of two weeks than I ever learned in my entire life; and, best of all, they have not forgotten the lessons they learned. Prizes were donated by interested people, of great value, and were much appreciated by the winners. Managed Playgrounds "A fortunate arrangement with the suDerlntendent of the public schools
placed Mr. Slocum in charge of the nlaveround activities for school chil-
iirpn rinrine- the summer months. A
branch, known as the James M. Townsend Branch of Community Service, was organized for colored people. A
few members of our executive com
mittee assisted in this formation, and
in turn four white people were asked to become members of their advisory committee. I am one of these, and from the association i have learned much about the colored man and his
problems. We have employed a most
excellent woman worker and they
now have quarters of their own, which
they refer to as a community center for colored men and women. It is small, but marks a fine beginning. They have their own basketball
league, an outdoor playground where
thev olay tennis, horseshoes, etc., con
duct a weekly people's forum, at which
the finest subjects are discussed; and, best of all, it is supervised and conducted entirely by themselves. Must Do Things
"I feel, therefore, in looking back over our own experiences that the
best method to be used in educating
a community to the needs and value
of Community Service, after a certain amount of newspaper publicity has
been obtained, is to go out and do
thines. to demonstrate through the
carrying out of programs that proper supervision of recreation during the
leisure hours is of as much importance as the conduct of one's bus!
ness. After the participants have
learned what can be done by one in
telligent play leader, you will get all the advertising you want, and people
with funds will be induced to financially support your cause. During our music memory and famous pictures contests we were given hundreds of dollars worth of space by our local papers, space which we could never
have obtained if a large part of our
population had not been actively par
ticipating and interested in the events. The sale of phonograph records, sheet music, books on art, and prints of the
pictures used, sold Community Serv-
ce to many of our business houses.
We played our trump card last
Fourth of July. I was out west at
the time, but I have been told that
the event was one of the greatest in the history of Richmond. Patriotic
addresses were conducted during the
day and in the evening a wonderful display of fireworks took place. It has been estimated that from 30,000
to 40,000 people were assembled at
Glen Miller park that day. And don't overlook the fact that our population
itself is only 28,000. I returned to Rjchmond the morning of the 5th and
taxi driver, who didn t know me,
immediately volunteered the informa
tion that 'yesterday was the greatest day Richmond ever had.' Christmas time also has afforded us an oppor-

The merchants along our Main street
were induced to get together to carry
out a uniform scheme of decoration
instead of going at it in their own
way, which usually results in any
thing but a pleasing picture and works
a hardship on the small merchant. We have advertised from within and I feel the work has been well done. Program for Girls "The Woman's club of Richmond is very eager to see a worthwhile program for girls put on, and is assisting Community Service. We are including in this year's plans a woman worker to supervise and direct their work. "Our service bureau has an excellent motion picture machine, which is loaned to any organization in the city;
we supply recreation leaders when asked for that service, render service and supply literature from our library to teach folk to play, and act as an information bureau on any subject in the line of recreation and play. "We are working at present with the city authorities for the establishment of a municipal golf course, and
the indications are that we'll get it, too. "The ideals of Community Service are more difficult to establish in the minds of people. The world still asks 'What's the game?' 'Who's getting his?' Unfortunately many of the peo
ple still cannot understand that there really are some folk who are willing to do things without always having in mind the possibility of personal gain. I believe that our ideal in this work is to develop the highest type of citizenship and bring out the best in men and women. People must be taught that play and recreation are as essential to good citizenship as work. A man may be an excellent workman in his line during the day, and then during his leisure hours become a menace to his community. This holds good even more with our younger people, as evidenced by the enormous increase in juvenile criminals. These youngsters must be brought together
and taught to play right. No person commits murder when he is happy.
No one roba a bank when he is happy. No one quarrels with his neighbor when he is happy. The answer Is simple: keep them happy. On that subject we need much publicity. .The
community must work in harmony,
regardless of race, creed or color. The
Idea is not socialistic. In my opinion. It simply demands fair play and tolerance of the other fellow'B Ideals and rights. There are hundreds of diversions when we take into consideration age, sex, religion, color, politics, wealth, society, etc., and in this coun
try no one has the right to say which you shall choose and follow, provided you do not actually violate the law.
Teach Tolerance , In Community Service we endeav
or to bring people together and teach this thought of tolerance. Our service Is different from most others, in that we make our effort during the
playtime when seriousness is set aside
and people relax. We ought to get
closer to a fellow's heart at that time and do him more good than when he has his ear to the ground during busi
ness hours listening for an order or the foreman's footsteps. I sometimes think the reason people are backward about joining in community move
ments is that they fear the very thing I referred to. They fear of being suspected of having ulterior motives. Our ideals always must be kept in mind and brought before the eyes of the public at every opportunity; and, just as dripping water wears away
the stone, the very constancy of it will teach neonle to believe in the
work. It is a strange fact that people
win be absolutely loyal to a church
a club, a political party or a frater
nity and then fail utterly to support
their home town or a community movement which effects evervbody.
Again, a field is opened to us who be
lieve in Community Service. The manner of presenting our ideals "does
not matter so long as it is active and concrete and leaves the impression of something well done. Recalls Experience "Speaking of the objectives of Community Service, I would like to begin, with your permission, by a personal reference and experience. In my youth I lived for some years in a rather poor part of New York City. It
was not as congested in those days as it is now, nor was it included in what is commonly referred to as the slums of a great city. Nevertheless,
people who lived there were of the middle class, trailing down to the poor. We had to do our playing in the streets, and in those days there were no societies or organizations to look after children; evep the schools were closed promptly after school hours. Gymnasiums were scarce and baseball wa3 played in the middle of
the street, with the home plate between the car tracks. The game would be called several times per hour on account of interference by police. Often a game would start on one street and finish several blocks away. After supper, if we were per
mitted to go out for another hour or so, the gang would look around for something to do; and they usually found it in throwing rocks through the Chinaman's windows, stealing potatoes to roast, dumping the fruitstand, or some other equally edifying and educational pastime. Monk Eastman, the famous gunman, was born and raised in that neighborhood, and I often feel that the only reason some of those boys didn't follow the same game was because our folks happened to remove to another part of the city. "One evening while the gang was scheming, a lady came up and invited us to go to what was known as the Union Square Boys' Reading Room.

FINAL LYCEUM NUMBER ECONOMY, Ind"., Jan. 27 The final number of the Dennis lyceum course will be held here at the Methodise church by the Sorority Entertainers.
Tuesday evening, Jan. 30, at 7:30 o'clock.
We voted to go, believing we would find an opportunity to discover some new means of devilment to make peo
ple unhappy and show we were regular fellows. We went up to Fourteenth street and found ourselves in a well-lighted, warm, pleasant room, the tables covered with books, and each of us received some lemonade and cake. I have never forgotten that evening, and I dare say the same is true of the others who went. "After that our playground was transferred to Fourteenth street, and through the knowledge those people had of handling boys what promised to be a real gang of young ruffian became a fine, clean lot of youngsters. Taugh Games "When summer came we were organized into baseball teams, taken to
Central park and actually allowed to play on the grass; taught to play the game fair and square, and some of the poorer children were sent off to the country on farms for a week Vi , two. I have profited by those kindnesses to me, and all the work I am doing today at Richmond I feel will never be sufficient to pay for what was done for me. It helps me to understand what the boy needs today as
much as he did then. "To confine our efforts as parents to our children is not enough. Of what use is it to raise our sons and daughters to be clean-living and to play the game square when we neglect the other child who does not enjoy the benefit of a good home, clean surroundings and the advice and love of affectionate and interested parents or worse still, the orphan turned loose on his own resources? As the strongest chain is only as
strong as its weakest link, so the rising generation 13 only as clean, useful and able as its weak members Our duty is plain. "Community Service broadens on that sort of work by carrying it to the grownups also. If you ask me what the objectives of our service are I'll say that if we do nothing more than take the average youngster whose hands are idle during his leisure hours and give him or her something to do and see that it is done cleanly and properly, we are qualifying our existence. When we do this for men and women, too, we are helping tc make better Americans and fighting anarchism, bolshevism and other radicalisms with a mightier weapon than bayonets and machine guns. Let us keep on with this work of making people happier, ourselves happy ir. the satisfaction that we are rendering a real service to our community, oui country, and humanity. It's a servicf worth while." J

and spiritual nourishment which we receive through attending church service. There are 168 hours in each week. How many of these hours do we spend
in idle moments? How many of these hours could be saved by planning our work and eliminating the unnecessary things? One of the Divine commandments is to "Remember the Sabbath Day to keep it Holy." How many of us keep this one commandment? Sunday by Divine command was established as a day of rest and worship. This day was set aside that we may rest our bodies from physical and mental care, contemplate the works of Almighty .God and worship God according to the Divine command. Our attendance at church service is the first step in keeping God's command.
