These people work to exist and they must play if they are to live. And they must play in the only way they know how to play, and that is by means of the commercialized amusements that we offer them. But we must protect them at every possible point, . . . [teaching] them what things are good and what things are bad ....There is no regulation that can be applied ... like the formation of standards of public taste, public opinion, the great social chaperonage that every man owes to his brother and every woman to her sister. -Belle Israels, The Dance Problem, National Conference of Charities and Corrections, 14 June 1912
