Protect Their Children.
The Evening Herald Wednesday con-
.taianed a story about young boy OH
Duluth Heights, who threw a snow ball
through a car window, almost striking
Miss Sharp, the principal of the Lowell
school. A close investigation by the
Labor World shows that the boy did
not throw the snow ball with intent to
do Miss Sharp or the car any harm. It
is learned that while he was playing
with other boys who were engaged in
throwing snow balls back and forth, a
ball that he directed at one of the boys
missed and struck the street car.
Owing to the fact that there was a
difference between Miss Sharp and the
parents of the boy, it Immediately fol-
lowed that the boy was simply trying
to satisfy a family grudge. This is far
from the truth. Nevertheless some OF
the boys on Duluth Heights have been
going beyond reason in some of their
pranks.
We know that boys will be boys, but
that is not necessarily an excuse for
wrong doing. There is a limit to all
things. The street car company is COM
planning about the continuous pranks
Of boys on the Highland Avenue line.
Jumping on and off the car, while it
is in motion by large number Of little
fellows is causing the motormen no lit
tie worry. There are some very large
boys, too, who are setting a bad ex
ample to the little fellows. The large
boys loiter about the store until late
at night, and very frequently perform
mischeivous acts against the street car
company. This has been quite a topic
Of discussion by passengers Of the
Highland car of late, and the parents
are largely blamed for apparent indif-
ference in the matter. The trouble with
too many parents on Duluth Heights
is that they defend their boys in all of
their acts. This has been true partic-
u1arly in school difficulties. While no
doubt there has been some reason for
complaint by parents with treatment
accorded their children, yet the children
should not know how the parents feel
q about it. There has been the greatest
difficulty in securing discipline in the
schools of late on account of this en-
enlargement given by the parents. Let
it stop now. 1t may lead to some dis
astrous event some time, and then the
blow will fall most heavily upon the
parents.
