CROWDS LOWER MORALS.
Mission Workers Agree That Age of
Delinquent Girls Is Dropping

The declaration of Mrs. Kate Waller
Barrett, national president of the Flor
ence Crittendon missions, that the
average age OF girls coming under the
care OF the missions has dropped from
twenty eight to sixteen years OF age
within comparatively few years, is
substantiated by Mrs. w. e. Taylor,
president of the local mission
Mrs. Taylor, however, takes excep-
ton to Mrs. Barrett's rather frankly
expressed conclusions that women are
no longer superior TO, men in the guard
ianship OF morals and rises to the de-
fence Of the sex.
with people living community
life instead of a home life, with
crowded living conditions and the ten
dency to seek AMUSEMENT away from
the home, it is a wonder to me that
, there are not really a great many more
girls led astray than there are Mrs.
! Taylor asserted.
"The war has, not been responsible
for the lowering of the age of the girls
coming under our care" she stated.
For some years prior to the war we
had observed a gradual dropping in the
ages of our girls. The exact reason for
this we are at loss to understand, I'M
less it is that mothers no longer make
the confdants of their daughters that
they used to do and no longer discuss
with them the problem of life.
"The entrance of greater number
of young girls into business life has
given greater spirit Of independence
to girls than entertained generation
or 50 ago, They resent being told what
they should do and where they should
go when they become wage-earners.
They gather great deal of harmful,
instructions from many of the motion
pictures which they view and which
should be impaired to the under
more favorable conditions.

are not aware Of wrong from right. but

outcome of wrong.
