, he, the father, was not the larger, and
don't believe that either father or
mother ever whips the child except N
anger-or not often in cold blood,
anyway.
"A father growls and grumbles at
| his children, scolds and storms at
them and is often telling them what
he has done for them. I'd like to know
| who has a better right to feed, clothe
and educate his children than the
| father. 1t is not the. children's fault
that they are in the world, and every
man who grumbles about his large
| family should be reminded of that
fact.
"No, I know that all fathers are not
| that kind" she said in reply to a gen.
| tie remopstrance from one of the sis
tiers, but l am speakiag of the ma
| jority, those with whom we are pretty
well acquainted.
Il tell you what l think father
| should do: he should be chums with
| his boys and girls, but more especial
| ly his boys. Don't he know all the
dangers, all the temptations that sur
round the growing boy? If the boy
looks upon his father as his best
friend, as his companion, then he will
confide in his father. Confidence be-
gets confidence, let the father contide
| in the son; tell him some of his bust
ness troubles, or some of his mental
worries and ask the boys advice. Say
| Son, what is your opinion?' and when
the opinion is given then, if possible
act upon it. ! tell you fewer BOYS
would be found in the street or going
to the bad if the father would follow
such course"
Yes, l agree with you," said our
secretary, but instead of that. how
often we hear father say, oh, shut
F, up; what does kid like you know
about such things?' and then the old
adage, Children should be seen and
not heard is dinned into their ears"
| Il think" resumed our leader, that
fathers take too much stock in their
own wisdom. They seem to think
that they have all the ideas on every
subject, and that they know how
everything should be done, and vet !
have known boys who were in some
things ahead of their fathers and could
give their dads pointers in many
! things.
Whenever a child goes wrong, either
| boy or girl, the mother is nearly
always blamed. They say If the
mother had done as she should, that
never would have happened. Now.
what l want to know is, why should
not the father take his share of the
blame? And another thing that I have
often wondered is why the father
should not take his son and explain
everything to him? 1t makes no diff

mother may be, the boys of the street

Before I ascribe, give the synopsis
of our discussion on the duty of the
father to his children, / want to say
that the editor made a mistake in
the name of the scribe, as given in

sorts of complications, and we hope
that this explanation will smooth
away all Ill feeling.
We were obliged to forego our meet
ing last week butthis week we man.
aged to evade all spies and met as
usual.
Have you noticed the injustice
done to the father" one of the sisters
asked with a sarcastic smile, They
are having a Mothers Day appoint
ed by the governors of several states.
and some time doubtless it will be d
national holiday, the Americans do
run to holidays so, but no one has
ever said anything about fathers
day"
We'll, I know you are joking, but
what does the father do for his chill
dren except to provide them with
food and clothes, and it is his duty
to do that much"
81 know some fathers who don't
do that, even if it is his duty. You
and | know of mothers who take in
washing and sewing, who go out from
home and do all sorts of work to pro-
vide their children with the neces.
stiles of life, while the father drinks,
CANDLES or smokes up the money"
All fathers are not that way, but |
think that il woman tends to her
children, does the sewing, cooking,
washing, ironing, in short, does all the
house work (and think how many
trades she must know in order to do
all these things properly say if she
does all this she is doing her full
share, but If added to that she must
earn a part of the money to feed and
clothe the children it is Sentirely too
much"
Excuse me, ladies, but you are off
the question. We were to tell of the
duties of the father to his children"
And we waited for the leader of the
day to express her opinion, as she had
a large family of children we expected
some straight from the shoulder blows
and we were not disappointed.
Il have tried to put that which l
feel and know into words, but have
found it difficult. 1t seems, from my
experience, that the fathers duties are
mostly negative: they consist more of
should nots, than shoulds Gf l may
coin a word). In the first place, if a
child needs to be pun shed they should
not be beaten like ere beats a dog.
mot that I think a dog should be beat
en-, ether. l think that every man
who beats his child till the child stag
gers into the house faint and bruised
should be beaten himself; as the boys
says, he should pick On some one his
own size
He would not dare beat the child if
