WHY GIRLS LEAVE HOME

steady social diet. They are all
entirely too haphazard, too full Of
risk and the opportunity for a
general letting down of standards.
When girls and boys, in their most
impressionable years, are turned

robins to become acquainted in
public parks and on joy rides,
what is to be expected?
Curiously enough, it is the men,
particularly the soldiers. who have

Is your daughters capital, and if
she squanders it all on some one
else-what has she left for her
own life?
Little Enjoyment Necessary.
The wise mother will realize
that her daughter is human and
requires friends, innocent enjoy
ment, and clothes that will enable
her to appear as other girls. And
no matter what trouble and sacri-
flee it entails, a mother should see
to it that her daughter has a place
to receive her friends under the
parental roof.
1t will then be a comparatively
easy matter to find out who your
daughters friends are, and what
the particular group of young
people with whom she fraternizes,
stands for.
The increased cost Of living, and
with the abolition of the old
fashioned parlor has much to
answer for in the way of un-
settled conditions among young
people. The movies, the park
bench, and the unsupervised dan
cling clubs are pretty poor, as a

" utonnatic-because home

" The answer IS pracLlCally

is not attractive.
Parents sometimes have the
shortest of memories for their own
youth, its ambitions, cravings,
and it's touching inexperience. And
this is particularly true, if the
parental youth was characterized
by a touch of waywardness.
The father-or even the mother
feels that he or she has had
enough experience for the family,
and the daughter shall never be
allowed to take such perilous
chances. So wholly leaving out
of the case such vital questions as
heredity, a daughter is immured
as completely as if she were in a
convent. Perhaps it may only
break the girls spirit and she will
submit to the domestic tyranny
and become that most pathetic OF
figures, a middle-aged woman
with no life of her own, but oftener
it results in rebellion.
We come across the tyne Of re-
pressed spinster, still under the
maternal wing, less frequently
than we did a generation or two
ago, for business and the profes-
sions have offered an avenue of
escape to the woman who at any
age was still mammals little girl.
A Chip of the Old Block.
But more frequently, daughter
proves to be a chip of the old
block, and the immuring process is
found to be not practical. The
girl declines to be sequestered
and has methods Of her own for
securing greater liberty. 1t is so
much wiser for parents not to
bring this state of affairs to an
issue, but to recognize your daugh-
ter as a human being, with the
same set Of intuitions and i'm
pulses that you yourself had in
youth, and administer the situation
accordingly.
So many girls whose pay en-
velopes help out the family budget
write to me about this state of
affairs. A girl who works all day
long, in shop or office. is especi-
ally entitled TO a little relaxation
of evenings. This, however, does
not apply TO the near-children in
their early teens, who for some
reason or another. are obliged 10
work 10 help along the family.
