THE' TENTH OLYMPIAD .
The world s greatest spectacle of sport is- now in progress
m Los Angeles. The cream of the athletic prowess of fifty'
nations is concentrated there for the mammoth sixteen-day
contest which has attracted many thousands- of spectators.
The word- "Olympiud" is the Greek term! for a period of
; foul1' year's, which was the interval between successive cele
brations of!;he Olympic games, a custom probably instituted
about 7-76 B. G, and continued regularly until abolished by
'TheddosiutHn 394 A. D.
The' ancient Greek Olympic games were really just a part
f gieat religious festival honoring Zeus and the other
gods who were believed to dwell on the summit of Mount
Olympus. The games consisted of five different events to
test the skill of the young men, and the conquerors were
highly honored.
In 1896 the idea of the Olympic games was revived after
considerable missionary work by Baron de Cpubertin of
France, and in that year the event was held at Athens,
Greece. The games began on April 6 and continued for five
6ajs. Since that time the event has been held every fourth
yeai" with the exception of 1916 when the war prevented its
being: held in Berlin as scheduled.
Baron de Coubertin, in agitating for the revival of the
gafaes, said: "The important thing in the Olympic games is
not .to win, but to take part. The important thing in life
is hot the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is
noi to have .coiqgcred but to have fought well-. To spread
thfese precepts is to build up a stronger and more valiant
anH, above all, a more scrupulous and more generous human
it." '
Such are the ideals upheld by the modem Olympic games
ideals even higher than those of the ancient Greeks. The
games today are international in scope, promoting good will
a no Dunging men ana women ot many races into friendly
competition; the original Olympics were held strictly within
the narrow confines of a single nation, and were really a
means of training young men in methods of warfare, that
they might make slaves of the peoples of other races. In
fuct, war was the principal occupation of the men of ancient
Greece, and the Olympiad frequently came in the middle
of military campaign. But, unlike modern men, the Greeks
always postponed their wars in favor of the Olympiad;
wherever they might be when the summer solstice of the
fourth year came around, they laid down their arms and
gathered on the banks of the Alpheus river near Olympia
for their great religious festival.
Perhaps the modern Olympiad might be developed into a
mparts of stopping wars. The event i3 gradually growing
in, scope and significance. More nations are participating
every qundrennium. The entertaining nations do all in their
power to make the visitors welcome, and to make their
stay enjoyable. Tho Olympic ganws are certainly one of
the healthiest influences in intoinatjonal relations today,
gradually eating away racial barriers', and building up the
bounds of friendship through their appeal to the universal
ideal of good sportsmanship.
