Short-Sighted Parents

was abused and insulted by these par
ents, who consider her conduct imper-
tinent and eddlesome-instead of hui
name and just and kind, which it was.
Not long ago a teacher in a school
met parents whom he informed of the
misconduct of children after school
hours.
A Foolish Opinion
These parents believed the teacher
was interfering with matters which did
not concern him, because the misbe-
havior of the children occurred after
study hours. But the behavior of the
children, their manners and their NOR
ais should concern every human being
who has the interest of humanity at
heart.
No sensible person expects children
to be paragons of perfection. If they
are noisy in their play, if they some
times quarrel, if they are guilty of
childish, misdemeanors, the less said
or thought of it the better.
But the child who maltreats or
abuses an animal or a younger child,
who tantaliZes or ridicules a beggar
or a deformed person, who destroys
the property of another, who steals his
neighbor's fruit or flowers, or who uses
disrespectful language to older people,
should be taught better by the friends
of humanity; and his parents should
be made to. realize that he is in need
of wiser and more sympathetic coun-
sci than they have bestowed.
Every child on earth to-day is not
merely its parents child; it is the
worlds future citizen, and it is there
fore important to all of us how that
child grows up.
1t is better to offend a foolish short
sighted father or mother than to ne
glect a duty to society.

and. not having any friends, I ask your
advice.

receiving attentions from my en-
ployer, who is married. He takes me
in his automobile and to dinners. He
tells me not to hurry to the office.
My conscience tells me that am do
ing both myself and his wife an in
justice, so | appeal TO you to help me.
r. A. w.
My dear girl. you have stated the
dangers of your own case so well that
there is hardly anything for me to
add. Surely you are finding no pleas
ure in course the dangers of which
you clearly recognize. What you are
doing must leave you in a state of
feverish unrest and nervousness that
is bound TO make your life miserable
even while you are pretending it is
gay and festive. If you are strong
enough to go to your employer and tell
him with quiet dignity that you are
heartily ashamed of yourself and in
sist upon having nothing but business
relations with him in future, it might
be safe for you TO keep your position.
1t might be, | say. but the one wise
course for you TO pursue is TO go at
once to some reputable bureau of en-
ployment, register there and take your
self out of the way of a man who, un-
der seeming kindness and attention,
masks the most dangerous enmity a
girl can know. Don't throw away your
young life in the pursuit of pleasure.

while friendships are sure to come to
you. Don't persist" in a course you
know to be wrong and dangerous You

Famous Writer SHOUS HoiC Children
Are Spoiled By Careless Fathers and
uOtherS.
BY Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Copyright, 1915, Star Company.


If you are the parent of a child you
no doubt resent any advice or inter-
ference from friends or neighbors re-
garding the proper method of bringing
up your offspring.
You consider it an impertinence not
to be tolerated.
But, sir or madam, have you stopped
to consider how absolutely fiimsy is
your oft-repeated assertion that your
children are your own, and that it is
not the business of your neighbors how
you bring them up?"
So far as your methods of education
or your ideas of religion are concerned
your words are true.
1t is an impertinence for any one to
criticize you for keeping your child
until it is ten years old before it is
taught the alphabet, if you see fit to
do so, or for teaching it to speak three
languages in its infancy, if you have
kept it we'll and strong at the same
time.
Men and women have grown to ro-
bust maturity who have been reared
in both ways.
Neither does it concern any one what
creed you teach your child nor if you
teach it no creed save morality and
love of its Creator and its fellow men.
In almost every other least particu-
lar it concerns every human being in
dividually and the whole world in gen.
eral how you bring up your children.
The World is Interested
If your son mistreats dumb animals,
or uses coarse language, or is impolite
to his elders, it is my business, for
am the friend and kin of all dumb
things, and | have a right to rejoice
and be glad in life, which | cannot do
if obliged to hear vulgar speech; and
since courtesy is an important feature
in our association with one another,
it is my business, if your son is lack
ing in it, to remind him and you of the
fact, in such ways as | feel could be
helpful to you.
If you have permitted your daughter
to grow into a disagreeable girl, sell
fish, thoughtless and jealous, or indo-
lent and without purpose, it is my
business, and that of all right-minded
people, to try to make you realize your
responsibility.
1t is the business of the whole COM
munity if you are making dyspeptics
and invalids of your children by inn
proper food and neglect of hygienic
principles of life. If you are sane and
healthy, and are able to feed and clothe
your children, it is no ones business
how many you bring into the world,
but it is a matter which concerns hui
manity at large how you bring them
up in the world.
Away off in an interior town of Illi-
nois-that birthplace of great men
live several growing boys under six
teen, who have been reared without
proper instruction by their parents.
These boys imagined they were having
fun" when they destroyed the cart of
an old man of seventy who maintains
himself and wife by carting ashes from
private houses.
A self-made young woman, indignant
at the occurrence, set herself the task
of finding who the vandals were, and
of visiting their parents and urging
them to make good the old mans loss,
and to rebuke their children.
AS consequence the young woman
