give your opinion. ~
BACKBONE"
THERE is just one thing for the
i parents to do--to lead their daugf1-
ter gently back to school. 1t need not
be a regular high school. But there
must be hours of interesting study
that will in time make the little girl
understand there is something in life
besides giddily wandering up and
down the main street of u large, busy
city. Let the parents find out what'
their daughter likes. Perhaps a course
In interior decorating would appeal TO
her, then again she might be inter-
ested in commercial education.
There are colleges, too. that prcpare
girls to be teachers Of physical cul.
ture and of clocutior. Any one or
these might appeal TO her.
This mother has a big Job ahead OF
her, for in curbing youth you must
also remember you have to make con-
cessons TO it, 1t would not do. for
instance. 10 deprive this youngster or
all the pleasure into which she pre-
cipitated herself The promcnading
must stop, of course, but there is no
harm in an occasional trip to the
movies in the afternoon or evening.
Tho thing TO do is meet the daugh-
ter on her own ground. On any other
basis the mother will simply appear
as the dire task mistress or she will
have to keep the role she Is playing
now--that of being afraid Of her own
daughter. II is true, mothers have
grown afraid of their girls. And one
of the reasons is they do not keep
pace with them. A mother must learn
to be interested in her daughters
pleasures and to win and keep her
child's confidence If she ever hopes to
have the upper hand of the situation.
