o 0 O '6 o o o o 9 k 1 ! i -it: - V a " ft ( j i i i i o o V PLAY. Written for the Enterprise. "Work is the irrcat life business : it is the moving principle "which sets the whole machinery of prog ress in motion, and' play is the oil that keeps it in order, and prevents it from wearing out, before it has accomplished anything. I believe that God designed play to form an important part in the life of every man, .'.woman and child, that it is one of those unchangeable laws, which, if violated, will inevitably "bring upon the offenders the pun ishment marked out by unerring wisdom. Play makes up the sum of childhood's sunny hours. Thc(i)toil in t,ie DaM room, never find it. child is always engaged in play ; his feet patter about the house, and his merry laugh rings responsive to his childish sport. His play chan ges as often as he becomes weary: like the butterfly tlirlt glides; from one pearl blossom to another, seek ing new pleasure in every blooming flower; so does the child seek, thro' the golden days of his child-hood new plays, new sports, new pleas uresjfrom the object that arc around him. Xowjt is jusas ncgessary that the child engage0 in play, as that a man engage in work ; each has' its peculiar mission to perform, one as important as the other. The child is but laying up the founda tion of the future man ; all the miis clesgire called into action, and the mind with a little training, expands .with the body. The active child makes the bright and intelligent boy. As child-hood blooms into boyhood, then the mind and the body should be exercised by easy and pleasant work, and never sho'd difficult tasks be imposed, till the mind and the body have acquired strength, and the boy cntershe renhnfif manhood, full of noble as pirations and exalted hopes. It is a beautiful picture, this of the play ful childjthe active and playful boy, anil theman thus prepared to enter the busy world. .. There is a nobleness about such a, man. His Avhole being has at tained that perfection which results from following this heaven given law. There are many who repress the playful nature of a child, either through waut of knowing better, orgto prevent the noise occasioned by his childish sports. The child that is compelled to be still, and to sit by the hour in a chair, is to be pitied, l'lay was, intended for him, and he must have ito his hearts content, if he is to be developed into a man, bearing m Ins person the ability to work. The child who is deprived of play will always make a weak and inefficient man ; hisife will be like the half blown rose, never bursting into sunbeams and starbeams ; beautiful to behold and sweet wiih the aroma of per fection. ' t rThus I have traced in brief the important part that play performs in transforming the child into the man. Xow behold another scene. On the bosom of fhat majestic riv eg, see that steamer with rushing prow, and roaring wheels. What mean those gay banners floating proudly in the summer breefrom every p$rt of the boat, and that soul inspiring music which is waft ed, across the water, and those gay crowds on the decks breathingthe inspiration of sunlight and air and music ? It is a party of excursion ists : they are off for a frolic and fun. Work has wearied them through wcj8:y days they have been toilinglaboring by the sweat of thePbrow and the sweat of the ; brain, in the greatiife work that is before them"; and now they are going to some flower-decked "island to play. And is it not necessary that play enter largely into the life of a man ? Do not our hearts beat in unison wkh the gay company as the steamer bears them onward to seek for pleasure and recreation from toil beneath the wide spread ing .tree,and on the green meadows where wild flowers spring, and ioy ous .birds warble sweet songs? This would be a dreary and desolate world, without play. When the man returns to his home at nio-lit, weary with the day's toil, doesnot he romp with his children, and en ter into their sports, and be for an hour a boy again ? If he is a man" I know he does. Men must play if they would be healthy and vi-r! orous. Men seek play in various ways, and every one must juoVc - for himselPwhat play is best For him.

This is the" case with :dl gymnasts. It is no ret to the man who has labored all day, to spend the evening in climbing poles turning summersets, and leaping. The 'tired muscles need rest, ami not exercise. Some seek play in the quiet walk, in the still evening twilight, and as they pass leisure ly aloug, viewing the beanties of nature, the vine covered hills,, the daneing rivulet, and listening to the nmrmur of water-falls, the Tow ing oi' the herds and the carols of birds, they find rest and refresh ment m this most delightful play, -the man who walks as if a hot were after him, flnds it but sorry l'lay. borne find the sweetest play in riding. There is no play better, and productive of more real enjoy ment, lie is a happy man, (or ought to be) 'who can keep a horse he finds' enjoyment in feeding him and keeping his glossy coat clean. He enjoys a pleasant ride out among the woods, and returns all? the better for the hour whiled ayay among the romantic beauties of nature. Every play may be made work, and does become work, whenever it is indulged in, after the body become wearied. JDancing, as a general thing, is not play,but work. Those who seek relaxation from It IS a labor that hrin- tio nnm pensation, but instead tired limbs and exhausted bodies, unfit for the next days vfork. It is not legiti mate play, for it leaves those who engage in it no better fitted for earnest work than they were before work and j)lay should go hand in hand, in the" course of every ones life. Work giving the need and desire for play, and play the desire for work again. Tl ins the weary load of cares are laid aside for a pleasanUramble, or ride, or a romp with tlie Children, and play becomes to human action the angel that relieves from the burdens and prepares the man for his work again. There are many men and women who never engage in play. Their whole lives are one ceaseless effort. They begin work early in the1 morning and quit late at night. (Toil, unceasing toil. makes up the sum of their lives no play comes in as a blessed angel to relax the tired muscles or The aching brain. They toil on from ,.1.1 j m jiuiici nation oi tlier time when they mau rest. To many that day never comes; and if it does come and the angel stirs the waters for them, and plenty surrounds them, they are not fitted to enjoy it ; they have become so accustomed to work that they find no enjoyment in play, and they are forced to go on with the weary work through all the weary years, "till the weary, body worn out with ceaseless toil can work no longer." This is a selfish way of living. It is a sad thing for men and women to labor thus, giving themselves no play in their mad pursuit after wealth, as if that was the great object to be obtained. How poor and weak it is for them to wear their lives away in pursuit of a phantom which nine times out of ten eludes their grasp and cheats them. And yet, like crazy Kate watching on the lone rock for the return of her child, do they labor on and never reach the goal of all their hopes and aspirations. We should enjoy life in the rosy moon of childhood in the meridian of manhood and womanhood and in the silvery evening when the well spent life o?ily waits from the top round of the ladder to step inUJ tlie mansions above. The idler does not know how to play ; he neither works nor plays, but listlessly liveSj through a use less life The whole horde of dan dies and fops are another useless class, who waste many precious hours in decorating their persons which should be employed in use ful work in invigorating play. Play, then, should form an import ant part in the life of every one. Without it wo become selfish and sordid without it the child will have no glad, sunny days the boy n Vffil l)0Tv mul ilworfWl intnlrn-t ' ' V - -' - " T II 1 i ' . lilt 1 1 V. V. I and the man live through life with out enjaying its pleasures. The man who mingles work and play, so that after work there comes the desire for-play, and after play the desire for work, ought to be a hap py man. He is performing heaven's law, and will rejoice in the pleasure that it brings. The weariness from toil will be lost in play, and his years will glide away full of !)joy ment and happiness, till his feet at iast rest on the summit of the golden mountains. Profundus.
