be
carried
ashore
on
the
rugged

but
was
able
to
ma:couvrr
herself
clear.

personalities.
It
offers
opportunity
for
the
voluntary
selection
of
pleasurable
activities
of
mind
and
body
which,
by
contrast
with
the
usual
routine
occupations
of
dally
life,,
refresh
and
rejuvenate.
In
order
to
abtain
the
maximum
benefit
from
the
time
set
aside
for
recreation,
an
effort
should
be
made
to
Include

in

The
Japanese
general
offensive
against
China
continues
with
resistance,,
such
as
it
is,
proving
of
little
avail.
The
Japanese
last
night
announced
the
complete
occupation
of

of
