bondage of bad habit. Perhaps the So
luton of the matter lies with the par
cnt. Habit is merely the result of early
training and environment. The habit
which is early acquired and well es-
iablished in the youth Is apt to be an
enduring one. One of the most dan
gerous habits which te young man or
young woman can acquire is the habit
OF going out at night. Late hours and
unusual eXcitment tax the strength and
undermine the vitality of young people.
AS a purely physiological proposition
the son or daughter should be kept at
home during the evening. If the boy
becomes accustomed to going out to
parties or with friends each night, he
will soon find it hard for him to con-
centrate his MIND when at home and
extent that the home will cease to at
tract him. The result of this Is fire.
quently the wreck of an otherwise
bright and happy career.
Neglect of lessons. shirking of duty
and general restlessness and discomfort
are symptoms of the "go OUT disease
which has attacked so many Of our
girls and boys and mas led to untold
worry and unhappiness on the part Of
mothers and fathers. Especially preva-
lent Is THIS IN city IKE washington
with many attractions Turing the child
away from the hearth. But what
is the remedy, it may be asked.
The best remedy which comes to
suggest itself to US lies with the
parent. Above ALL do all in your power
to make the home an attractive place.
Make the child feel that he is con-
sideration and necessary to the COM
fort OF the family. Have patience with
his childishness and do not overtax
him for slight mistakes. On the other
hand. rule him with flrmness and do
not hesitate to say no. Above all, re-
member that the child, II he Is normal,
must have some amusement-some
pleasure. See to it that he can find
this at his own home and do not drive
him abroad to seek It, If boy is a
2ad-about when young, he will be n
gad-about ne'er do we'll when grows
older. Unable to concentrate his at
tention, dissatisfied with his surround
ings. restless and hungry for excite
ment. he will never find time for any
of the big things of life which may
make living worth while. To the boy
or girl, then We would say "Stay at
home and learn to appreciate the good
which your parents intend for you"
To the parent our advice would be:
make the home attractive and then
keep the child in it.
