THE GIRL PROBLEM.

OF all the questions that are to be
handled. the girl question is the hard
est. There seems to be a sentiment
prevailing in communities that when a
girl goes wrong she is always wrong
and that there is scarcely a home in
any city that would be open to q girl
that has once gone astray- Mothers,
charitabIy inclined women point their
fingers with scorn at the girl, but the
boy who has gone astray morally some
times becomes a hero. 1t is up to the
mothers and the women of this coun-
try to try to right this wrong, but the
greatest trouble that / find is that
mothers and parents are careful of their
girls up to a certain age
They are very careful about letting
them go forth at any time; they are
very particular as to their associates
until they reach the age of 13 TO Is
years and then the girl comes and goes
as she pleases. Now then the girl goes
out IN the world; she is not acquainted
with the conditions nor with people.
She falls into the hands of some friend
who is friend of some one else The
circle of friends increases and after a
while we find this girl has fallen into
the acquaintance of persons whose
reputation of being In the same class
until finally she goes astray and proba-
bly, the last resort is commitment to
the Industrial school at Clarmont. II
seems as if the girl question is the
hardest problem to deal with, but al
the same time 1t ought not to be such
a problem. II We would use an ounce
Aof prevention we would not need to be
so exercised over the cure for bad
situation which unfortunately does
exist Take the large number of girls
working in our factories for instance
! many of them lass than l6 years OF
age they have a record morally. We
of course call 1t a serious problem. II
we want to save the girls we must offaI
attractions which are superior 10 the
dance halls and the cheap shows and
skating Kinks. The social need OF this
class of girls is good recreation The
monotony of the long ten hours day
sends them out in the evening for some
pleasure that they do not find in the
churches and not always in the Y. W
c. As Girls can be easily won &c
better ways of living and acting.
