Boy and Girl Problems in the Home
Notes from Addresses at the Nash
Vile Meeting of the National Con-
gress Of Mothers and Parent
Teacher Associations, April, 1916.

Health is not the chief asset
that the home owes the hoy. Every
effort possible should be made to
have better babies. We should have
better sanitary conditions, ETC., but
we should not mistake any Of these
for the greater things that the home
owes the children: that is, the pow
err of the will in the development
Of character.
The formation of character is
not the highest thing TO be given
boys, but the power of the soul
to triumph over physical condi-
tions the joys Of existence. II lies
within the power of every father
and mother and teacher to awaken
this wonderful joy over life. To do
this, il takes right understanding
Of the child -.
There are three obstacles in the
way of helping the boy get into the
kind of work in which he can have
self-activity: ~ Family pride-tra-
dition. Parents want their boy to
stand on the level Of responsibility,
so they insist upon picking out his
occupation or profession. (2) Boys
are taught that money is the object
of work. II is a mistake to bring
up boys to think that the job that
pays the most money is the best
job. o. The indifference of par
ents about what the boy is going to
do when he goes to work"
Elizabeth Harrison, Chicago, Ill.
ut is to the mothers that we are
looking to see that both city and
country children shall get the same
training.
THE children must be taught in
keeping with the kind of life they
have lived. Teaching must be
translated into terms of past ex-
perience. A social center must be
provided for every rural commun-
ity. Every schoolhouse should have
a mothers room where mothers
could bring their knitting.
Last year the Legislature enact
ed law that ten verses of the Bible
shall be read in every school in
Tennessee every day. The child
should have his attention drawn TO
the fact that he is a spiritual be-
ing."-State Superintendent S. w.
Sheriff., Tennessee.
Little girls are passing away in

IAN imperative need of every i'm
migrant mother is a command OF
the language of the country in
which she lives. Without it she
is hopelessly handicapped in her
duties as a mother. A tragic situ-
alton results from the separation
that takes place when the mother
can not understand her children and
their friends, and when the children
come to have "A feeling of superior
