The story of a sand pile, the cubic yard of builders' sand that has grown into $115 play centers in the United States in 40 years, is told by Weaver Pangburn in the July McClure's His article, "America Learns How to Play," is a fascinating review of the growth of recreation idea in this country. Dr. Mary E. Zakrsewka returned from Germany to her home in Boston in 1885. In Berlin she had noticed heaps of sand in the parks where children of both rich and poor played together under the supervision of elderly, kindly policemen. Dr. Zakrsewka told her friends about the sand piles. Mrs. Kate Gannett Wells, chairman of the executive committee of the Massachusetts Emergency and Hygiene Association, heard of the idea. Mrs. Wells ordered a yard of sand dumped in the yard of the Parmenter Street chapel and, the next day, on the lawn of the West End Nursery. "A matron was on hand to tell the children what to do. It was not necessary for her to say a word. The children discovered the use of the sand as soon as it arrived. "Such was the modest beginning of the American playground. The Boston sand pile was as epoch-mining an idea as the Boston Tea Party. The one turned thirteen British colonies into thirteen United States. The other converted a cubic yard of sand into 8,115 play centers. "Playgrounds have materially reduced the number of traffic accidents. Judges parole officers and social workers testify that well-directed park systems decrease juvenile delinquency and cite statistics to prove it." It is hard to be a leader in America. You never can tell which way the darned crowd is going. When everything else fails, William Jennings Bryan can go to Tennessee and teach school.
