WELFARE OF CHILD
IN RURAL PLACES
Dependent on Re
Mobilization of the Schools
and Churches.

SEATTLE. Wash, July THE
rehabitation OF country schools and
country churches as the first es-
sential in working out plans for bet
terment of conditions in rural COM
munities particularly In relation 70
childpen. was urged by DR.. w. IL.
slingerland, special agent OF the
Russell Sage Foundation of New
York in an address before the Ma
tionaL conference of Charities and
Correction here this morning. Or.
sHngerland in speaking Of the need
OF child welfare work in rural COM
munities quoted many social work
ers scattered throughout the country
in support OF a national effort to
place such activities in country dis
tricts on the same plane of efficiency
and sufiiciency that prevails in cities.
"The first preliminary agency IS
education" said Dr. Slingerland.
more teachers and school houses
and Fairgrounds will aid nightly
in solving the welfare problems OF
rural communities. The second
agency to he eSta Dllbneu - al oh1
less chain of social centers among
the people, by the people and for the
people. This implies a constant and
general use of school houses and
in ways, some of which
were unknown to our fathers, but
proved effective wherever properly
and inteIligently undertaken. The
third. constructive element is the re-
4italizing and undermining Of the
country church, which has largely
adjusted itself to the new conditions
due to modern civilization. The
rest Of the program includes ade-
quate institutional provision for the
feebisminded. there being one fee
bleminded person for every 500
population. This, and the extension
of the work of agencies and societies
dealing with child life so that these
activities cover the rural districts,
will solve the main problems of ru-
raj welfare work"

RURAL CHILDREN
STUDY IS BETTER
Than the Study of City Chill
dren IN Dealing with
Child Welfare.

SEATTLE, Wash, July I'm an
Sddfess on aUnity in Child Helping
Service" before the National Confer
encee OF Charities and Correction
here this morning. William T. Cross,
secretary OF the state Board OF Char
titles of Missouri, insisted that much
more can fbe learned from the study
OF rural child problems than from
the study of similar conditions IN
the city, for the country as opposed
to the city is practically self-sufici-
emit and seif-regulating. More
over he said, I'VE never appreciate
any section of If institution OF social
life until we see 1t in relation to
child welfare" The speaker adFo-
GATED not only the correlation OF al
such, agencies as juvenile courts,
crild-placing societies, orphanges,
etc, but a mutual understanding
and unifcation of efforts among al
whose work influences in any way
the lives of children. He particula--
ly urged the consolidation of efforts
for the prevention of infant mortal
ity, the avoidance of excessive child
labor efneient education. and the
treatment of effectiveness, depend
ency and delinquency among chill
dren
.'The deepest running task IN
child saving service, : said MT.
Gross, is that OF developing con-
vincing code of morality among all
classes regarding the Significance OF
child life.AThe child saving problem
is a problem of the broken home
and the unsuceessful family life. It's
deepest root is Ignorance. careless
ness ana immortality. The only posi-
tive task in this tieid is to engender
a greater appreciation OF children"
