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. What troiild bo vlmr f,..

in view, except it be that it is a

: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

and productive of more real enjoy

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.

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

dies and fops are another useless
class, who waste many precious
hours in decorating their persons
which should be employed in use

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.
