After ten years or more of working
with children from kindergarten to
high school ages, in the schoolroom,
on play grounds, and at summer
camps, the most prominent problem
with which | had to deal was that of
PROPERTY RIGHTS, says an eminent
educator.
Not one child in twenty five has a
well-balanced attitude of mind toward
the property of others. Most children
will light to protect their own prop
erty, but are absolutely Indifferent. If
not criminally careless, with the prop
erty of others. And the occasional
child will be wantonly destructive. But
is usually an intense carelessness due
to lack of training which Is to blame
for this condition.
Public property libraries, school
buildings. play grounds and fences,
and materials used in public classwork
are deliberately or carelessly or
thoughtlessly destroyed, defaced, or
mutilated every day all over the land
by every class OF children.
Children will scrawl words and
drawings with chalk upon public walks
and walls, and also upon private
houses, and go unreproved.
What is at the bottom of this uni
versal Indifference to the use and
abuse OF property not distinctly
"Mine?" Is it entirely the fault of
the children? After a rather careful
study of sources, would say, Put it
UP to the parents
Do parents instill into young minds
under their charge that the personal
property of each one in the family is
sacred and not to be used without ex
press permission, unless 1t is commu-
nifty family property?
How often. for example, does mother
forget that baby Katherine has her
property rights in the bits of scrawled
paper which mother consigns to the
waste basket without consulting Kath.
crime first? How often does father
kick down the carefully constructed
pile of blocks, which to Johnny's eyes
represents wonderful palace or
bridge which is quite important and
say to his son, Here get that mess
out from under-foot quick"
And yet, how perfectly astonished
and enraged mother would be If little
Katherine, in righteous effort to
clean things UP, should rummage

chance the majority will do the
right thing.
Cali of us are tempted at times to
do and say things that are dangerous,
self-destructive; but in the end sanely

will prevail. 1t is the business of the
college trained man and woman to
see that 1t does prevail
