 Much of the trouble, she has dis covered. could have been eliminated In the earlier years of the child if the parents and teachers had been properly educated regarding the mat ter and how to correct it. Therefore she sees in the problem a matter that in its individual way, for the de1in quent child exists, according to Mrs. Falconer, in both city and country,
 "Del1nquent children are caused by system of living which is all wrong, explains Mrs. Falconer at conclusion of her survey of country and city communities.
 We live at such a rapid rate these days that we seem to expect the chil- dren to keep up with our pace, but that they cannot do, as my survey has demonstrated. Our way of living has caused many broken homes. which have been the wrong sort of environ ment and influence for innocent chil- dren- Discipline has been lacking in such homes.
 Children, lacking proper super vision, in such homes have selected their own amusements which usual ly are Of the wrong sort when found outside of the home.
