By John J. Tlgert,
United States Commisslonr of
Education .
After college, what business or pro
fession? In these dayf of specializa
tion, the college man or woman who
has not jet dn'hlei upon a carcc
may choose from vocations more vir
ied than ever before. Fresh channels
of work are constantly opening be
cause of our rapid social and Indus
trial transformation. One of the
newest and most appealing of them
brought about by a combination of
fundamental changes In the character
of American life. It is the profession
of organizing the leisure time of
towns and cities.
Today approximately one-third of
life is leisure. Through time an'
energy saving devices, through the di
vision of labor and through legisla
tion the eight hour day in Industry
Is very generally an accomplished
fact. Add eight hours for sleep to
the work hours and there "remain
eight hours for recreation and 'diver
sion each day. The use to which
this spare time Is put has a tremen
dous influence on the character of
our civilization.
Leisure Is a. powerful force, which
may work either for growth or for
deterioration. Community Service, a
post-war movement, exists to make
spare time constructive and rich. It
provides leadership and combines the
resources of community agencies Iv
work for vigorous citizenship and
healthful recreation. It helps com
munities and individuals to express
through playgrounds, athletics, dra
matics, music and the various forms
of art latent talents which cannot
find an outlet through their daily
work.
Community Service as a vocation
offers a broad field to the socially
minded man or woman of lutein

gence. With the growth of the move
ment, the demand for directors of
community leisure time life Increases
Providing proper recreation is today
considered as much a civic responsi
bility as providing sanitation and ed
ucation. Communities are analyzing
the word "recreation" back to 1U
esential .means "re-creation." They
are realizing how much of the sound
ness of community life depends upon
the cultivation of the -markln of time
outside work and rest.
.Although commercial amusements
theatres, baseball, amusement parks
and many other such things extort
large profit, they are often . goor"
enough In their way. The chief
danger Is In letting them provide ex
clusively for the nation's leisure time.
For commercial recreation concerns
itself merely with supplying entertain
ing ways to occupy time. It does
not give much encouragement to
spontaneity and self expression In rec
reation. There is truth In the warning that
we are In danger of becoming a na
tion of "bleacherltes." Eighteen men
play on a diamond while thousands
sit and watch thorn, gaining their
only exercise by occasional arm
waving. We have too many "sports
men" who confine the "sports page?
of the newspapers.
To be an Interested spectator is
commendable, but true recreation
means participation. People, and
communities as well, grow only lv
doing. They, are glad to exchange
looking on for doing if they have o
chance. But they do as a rule know
how to proceed on their own initia
tive. Facilities are lacking nnd or
ganized leadership Is lacking.
The task of Community Service is
to give leadership to the community's
efforts In supplying these recreation
needs. Local leaders of athletics, dra
matlcs and music are trained. Un
used vacant lots are cleared for play
grounds, neighborhood associaton?
are formed, programs of year-round
activities, both oudoor and Indoor, are
initiated. But Community Service 1'
not superimposed upon a community
It is a structure built within and by
the community Itself.
The man or woman who follows the
profession of Community Service acts
In the capacity of consultant or ad
visor to a town or city which wisher
to use its leisure time to the best ad
vantage. He (or she) correlates the
efforts of various groups and indi
viduals. eliminating wasteful moves
and furnishing direction. What a ctiy
manager is to the civic life of a com
munlty ajid a school superintendent
is to Its educational life, the Com
munlty Service director Is to its leis
ure time. His working days are bus
lly diverse. One day he may be help
ing to organize an athletic league or
a community forum, the next arrang
ing publicity for a Music Week or r
pageant, and the next drawing up
planB for financing summer play
grounds. Always he finds In his pro
fession scope for every talent air'
capability he may possess.

Coaching is not what ti is cracked
up to be, not if we take what one says
who has been In the business for 22
years anyway, and we have every rea
son for believing that what he says
Is so. That is what Coach Fielding
II. Yost, of Michigan, says:
"We never advise our boys to go
into the coaching game. In almost
every case it is a waste of time, in as
much as the average life of a coach
as a coach Is only three years in du
ration and one Just takes this much
time off front getting started in what
ever line of work he will eventually
go into."
9s to the stability of a coaching Job
the coach said. "A coaching position
isn't like that of a professor or an
other instructor. For a coach to keep
a Job he has to turn out winning
teams, and it's a physical impossibil
ity for every coach to do this. Yes, I
would say it is all right for, a young
fellow to go Into physical education
schools, but coaching. No."

ing in somo of the steps of tho con
version of the chemical energy ol
the coal into light energy. Many of
thes elosscs arc, in the steam gener
ating plants, he said. Only' about
hal of the energy sent out into dis
tributing systems is actually metered,
but ther einust be a balance struck
between buying larger wire allowing
leakage of energy.
"The steam railway was well do
veloDed before the electric railway
came into being," Dean Ferguson
stated. 'Steam roads are being leec
trlfied In many places for one of two
reasons to increase the capacity of
the road without increasing track
mileage, or to do away with the smoko
nuisance. That is the reason for elec
trification at terminals, and on moun
tain roads, where the cost of laying
tracks is almost prohibitive.
"Telephone sysems are useful In sc
far as they reach everyone, and wt
come much nearer to that point in the
United States than In any other coun
try, even In the ore densely settled
portions of Europe. There Is a tele
phone station for every eight or nine
persons In the United States.
"I predict that in not any years we
will have Interconnected transmission
lines of electrical power reaching
from the eaBtenr to the western coast
of the country. We already have, ex
tensive sysems in th east, and the
southeast, and on the west coast tha
coud be easily connected up. There
will come a time when all of our
water power plants will have to pump
their energy into such distribution
systems. It Is even proposed to burn
the coal In the mines, without bring
ing it above ground, and to send elec
trlcal energy so obtained into distrib
utlon systems.
"I am not one to say that a man
must attend college to attain a bril
liant success. That is not true. A
college raining is the easiest, most
direct, quickest way of getting a cer
tain fund of information and acquaint
tng oneself with methods of handling
certain engineering problems. There
is nothing in your class work that you
could not get elsewhere. But. But
you would have to work much longer
and much harder."
