Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Community Daily Vacation Bible School This book is not primarily concerned with the Denominational Daily Vacation Bible School but with the community school. Its appeal is especially to the community which has two or more churches and which wishes to conduct a Community Daily Vacation Bible School. Prof. Norman E. Richardson, in his introduction to "The Vacation Religious Day School," by Stafford, says: "If religious training is to be universal for our country, it must be organized and maintained by all the churches acting together. The community is a natural unit in our national life. An adequate program of religious education for a community involves many problems which can be solved only by community co-operation." He also adds: "The program of the vacation session can make use of the prevailing play-spirit without in any way invalidating the educational efficiency of the work. Play is not incompatible with childhood religion." In the dozen or more vacation schools which we have conducted during the past four summers, we have tried to keep before us those two things - the community idea and the play-spirit. We have done many things which the average vacation school does not do and we have left undone many things which many schools have done.
