The parish of st. Peter and Pauls
Catholic church held very success
full picnic yesterday at the grounds
at the foot of Good Counsel hill, and
the affair was largely attended. 1t is
estimated that at least one thou
sand people were served at supper,
and every booth and attraction on
the grounds were generously patron
lied throughout the day. Music by
the Sandon band added to the
festivity of the occasion and with
the many places of interest on the
grounds and the fine weather, the
picnic proved time of enjoyment
to all. The Ladies' SOdality served
the supper, which was pronounced
an ideal picnic repast. The ice cream
and fancy work booths were pre-
sided over by young ladies of the
parish, and were popular places.
The st. Elizabeth society had
charge of the parcel post, and the
country store was operated by the
Holy Family society. Fishing ponds,

and brought in good receipts. The

SPARED ROD SPOILS CHILD HICKORY OIL
WOULD HELP COMING GENERATION
BY JANE whitaker

MISS whitaker, have you ever
considered the home environment?
Have you ever considered the parents
as the unwantingly, Yet the uncon-
scious cause of many of our baby
bandits and misled boys and girls?
Here are my views.
THAT this country (the large cities
especially being cosmopolitan as it
is, has greater percentage of boys
and girls born of foreign parents
going against 'society's rules be-
cause they have few things in COM
mon with their parents who have
been raised and bred in European
countries. The child born in the U.
S., and even the child brought to this
country when young, grasps more
quickly the American standard than
his parents and the result is big
gap between the thoughts, the prin-
ciples, the ideals and the convictions
of the child and the parents. In 9TH
er words, the American modernism
taught the child in public schools, his
more thorough knowledge of aca-
demic studies and theories, unfortun-
ately make him feel far above the
average parent, especially when the
child is given more or less his own
way.
Don't you think national move
to educate the parents born in for
eign lands to the American standard
and, if practicable, this move be made
compulsory, would be good, that lit
orally speaking the parents may be
placed on a par educationally with
their sons and daughters?-Jacob
Cohen"
Unquestionably the home environ
ment enters into the creation of
baby bandits as one of the factors,
of which there are so many that one
writer could fill, in condensed Day
Book style, an entire edition of the
paper and yet leave some of the
causes uncovered.
But would the education of foreign

edy! L think and will probably De
much criticized for the thought, that
we need more of the old world ideas
of the European countries in the re-
lations of children and parents and
that American modernism in the
home relations is one of the troubles.
European parents in Europe de-
mand obedience of their children and
teach them a sense of filial obiga-
ton that is scoffed at here. They
keep in force the old adage spare
the rod, spoil the child" and they
keep in working order the rod.
In America it is considered relic
of the dark ages to punish child for
disobedience. 1t must be reasoned
with. Yet the opponents of reason
ing with the wilfully parent-disobedi-
ent child are opponents of reasoning
with the wilfully law-disobedient
child.
Frequently have listened to chill
dren raised on the reasoning and not
insisted upon obedience plan" mi
micking their parents, laughing at
them and having to be bribed to obey
the slightest request. Not long since
l was Mortified to hear a grown wom-
an call her father, who had support
ed her long after she should have
supported herself until he became
disabled, IAN old fool" l Mortified
her possibly just as much when I told
her that neither my sisters, though
grown to womanhood, nor myself,
would dare even speak back to my
parents, and would not want to, out
of the deep love and respect we bear
them, though we were raised to that
adage of the rod and the child.
There isn't a day in the boys court.
that there is not some evidence of
that lack of respect of children for
their parents and it is more so with
American children than with those of,
foreign parents.
