LAUGHS At 81 PROBLEM
no Such Thing rs It Has Been I'm
derstocd, Is the Conclusion
Of an Expert.

There is no sueh thing as 'he boy
problem. much a felix's talk about it,
said Fred S. Goodman eli New York, a
Young Mems Christian association ex-
pert, in addressing an Omaha audi
enee. The problem is entirely in
the kind Of leadership the boy gets,
and that rests, not aith The boy. but
the man.
Mr.. Goodman In siets en- a mans in
fluence for the boy, especially from
fourteen years OF age on, and the man
ought to be his father. For the boy,
he says, instinctively Classics him.
self then as a man and win respond
sensitively to a mans leadership To
illustrate. he cites this incident:
When the steamer The Republic was
rammed by another ship some five
years ago and impariled and the trans
fer of passengers was uader way with
the rule Of the sea, woman and chill
dren first" IN force, a father standing
near the edge OF The deck babe his

emily the boy kissed his mother and
sister and went to take his place be-
side his father Instinctively he CLASH
fed himself, preferring to die with his
father as a man than escape with his
mother and sister as a child.
How typical this boy was no one
knows, but the moral is plain. The
father who succeeds in establishing
and maintaining a close. confidential
companionship between himself and
his son has, as we al know, taken a
vital step toward meeting his RESPONSE
bility. From then on it is largely up
to him what his boy becomes, depend
ing on the kind Of leadership the boy
gets.
