READY Assistant Specialist in Rec,·eatlonaZ A.ctwities,'• Office of Ed1tcation During the past two years various pamphlets and catalogues of .:olleges and universities have been received in the Office of Education, United States Department of the Interior, showing that some insti­ tutions of higher education are endeavoring to provide and maintain f-acilities for out-of-door study for students. From the material which has been received it is evident that important practical and experimental work is carried on in institutions in various parts of rmr country, not only as a part of the required worl~ of certain curricula leading to a bachelor of arts or science degree, but as a '>pecial opportunity for research study for graduate students and Feachers. In general, it is the opinion of the directors of this work that many courses of study usually taught by lecture and laborator;t method in school buildings can be more thoroughly and scientifically ~aught in a specially selected environment out of doors. This pam­ ~hlet presents a ·brief outline of some of the out-of-door work which ~~ being carried on at this time by a few institutions with the hope that other institutions will be stimulated to provide similar opportunities.

Professor Franklin Parker first called my attention to the need for this study in 1964. He also gave many kinds of help, including several critical readings of the manuscript. His wife, Betty June Parker, read most of the chapters, saving me from a number of stylistic weaknesses. Dean John S. Ezell suggested several improvements especially in the earlier chapters. Professors Lloyd P. Williams and William Horosz offered encouragement throughout my doctoral program, including this dissertation. My wife, Mona Jeanne Smith, typed the preliminary drafts, read all of the work several times, and eliminated a number of errors. I am endebted to Mr. Boyd Gunning, of the University of Oklahoma Alumni Development Fund, and to Dean Carl D. Riggs, of the University of Oklahoma Graduate College, for grants which made the research possible. Some of the material contained herein appeared in the Educational Forum and is reproduced by permission. IV Many librarians, archivists, and government offi­ cials showed me more kindness than their positions required. To most of these people I can do nothing more than tender an inadequate collective thanks.

As such it has not received the critical attention given to other units in the educational scheme.

As the official publica- tion of the National Child Labor Committee, the magazine fought for legislative reform in the states, where child labor laws were mediocre or non-existent, and attempted to enlighten an apathetic public to the plight of the child worker. The magazine sought to abolish the labor of all children under age 14. A second goal was to guarantee children under age l6 an eight- hour day between the hours of 6 a.m. and 7 p.m., and exempt them from work in mines and quarries. Intensive campaigning of the American Child between l9l2 and l924 resulted in the passage of two federal bills for- bidding child labor and consideration of a much publicized federal children's amendment.
