OVERHOLSER TALKS
At CIVIC &c NTE R
Secretary of Boys Depart
ment Speaks at Franklin
School Meeting.

Taking for his subject. The Indi
vidual Boy" 4. A. Overholser, boys
secretary of the Y. NJ. G. a, gave an
interesting and instructive talk to a
small gathering of the members of
the Franklin community center. at
the Franklin school Tuesday evening.
Mr. Overholzer treated his subject
in a novel and interesting manner by
using a chart showing the different
ages, periods and changes in a boys
life. He explained in detail each
change that takes place in every
growing and developing boy's life,
and the care with which a growing
boy should be handled by his pax-
ents. He said that the apparently
trihing incidents of a boys life are
not TO be treated carelessly. Hc
continued, saying; Il can't impress
it enough upon you parents of boys
the care you should take TO sympa-
thize with a boy when he is just
between the period of boyhOod and
manhood, perhaps you can't undec-
stand him, but he does not under
stand himself; he is grasping for
something and what he needs IS
sympathy" Mr. Overholzer con-
Guided his talk by stating his belief
that most of the cases appearing be-
fore the juvenile courts of the coua-
try result from the fact that the
children are misunderstood by their
parents, or more often no effort is
made to understand them.
AS the business meeting, which
was in charge of Miss Edith Brown,
in the absence of Pres't a. l., Miller.
the discussion regarding new
school house was continued from the
last meeting. The question Of prizes
for the school children as an incen-
tive TO good gardening was brought
up and suggestions made toward A.
