HOW SOUTH SIDE SCHOOL BOYS WERE DECOYED

ANGELO PATRPS
CHILD TRAINING
Review Given By Mrs. H. ]. Bohn
To the Members of the Twen-
tieth Century Club

The Twentieth Century club met al
tie home of Miss Ruth Southland on
Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Henry j.
Bohn reviewed Child Training" by
Angelo Patri, an illustrious educator
This is a collection of articles which
have appeared from time to time in
popular periodicals and which are
now compiled into book form.
The eyes of the country have been
watching his methods and discussing
his theories along these new lines
for some time.
Mr.. Patri starts with Training
Your Child" and carries the reader
through many of the mistakes made
in a child's early life by those who
have the care of them.
Something to do solves many a
problem in keeping child happy
and contented, manners" play a
great part in our success, self Con-
fidence" is another help in the battle
OF life.
Mr.. Patri says to respect your chill
dren and teach other people to res
oect them. The latter can only be
3ono if the fundamental laws OF
obedience to parents and respect for
people and property are Thoroughly
nstilled in the young child. It is
only justice to the child that he be
instilled from the first dawn Of in
telligence.
Mr.. Patri touches on School, The
Teacher, "The Parent" and Build
ing the Childs Character" Sports"
ave a vital influence on the grow
1g youth Every situation in the
udding life of those under his care
explained from the child's view
point 1.-THE Child and His Country
takes up one of our strongest in
stincts. To sum it up he considers
that a child is a reasoning human
being, and treats him as such with
rights of it's own, which however,
must not infringe upon the rights of
it's elders. A few generations Of such
training would give US a race Of
superfne boys and girls.
The subject was of much interest
to the club and called forth lively
discussion.
The election of officers will take
place at the next meeting.

asked for an advance of enough mon

being assured it was genuine, suff1-

unlucky farmer home. The second case
Of this kind was not so successful.

unions to follow his tactics against
the Let's; to break up locals, and
prosecute the militants. Without this
he saw no reason for the existence Of
the Alliance.
Hillman came to the same confer
ence with different plan. He did not
oppose such a joint policy, but he
wanted that this policy should be ex-
pressed in general terms in resolu-
ton against an organized opposition
within the unions and rnat the official
dom of each union should determine
it's own methods of carrying out that
policy. In other words, Hillman want
ed joint resolution which should
be in harmony with his tactics as laid
down some time ago in the so-called
Declaration of Peace" to the New
York Amalgamated organization.
While Sigman on the other hand want
ed a united campaign against the mil
itants along the lines Of the Cossack,
union-splitting methods he had al
ready initiated.
Because of this disagreement the
conference was disbanded and the
Alliance" for all practical purposes
dissolved. Although no official burial
took place, the last rites were - adj
ministered and there is no hope for
its resurrection.
The secretary of the Journeymen
Tailors Union believes that. RESPONSE
bility for the Alliance rests upon Sig
man and Hillman alone, but this is a
shortsighted estimation. Responsible
is the entire officialdom OF our unions
which organized this sort of an Al
lance. And il the officials are guilty,
it is not because they put practical
end to the Alliance, but because they
are the principal promoters OF the pol
icy that has produced dissention and
disintegration.
The death of the Alliance is quite
natural. In reality the Alliance was
born a monstrosity, the product of a
sick leadership. The Alliance was or
ganized only to delude the masses in
to believing that by this means the
workers were being united. In reality
however, this leadership never wanted
unity. At the conference of February
22nd their bluff was called and the
actual death of the Alliance reveals
their insincerity.
The rank and file Of our union Will
not mourn over this disclosure and
bewail the death OF the perverted AL
lance. The progressive workers in
our unions are striving to achieve a
real uni6cation of the unions in the
industry. The amalgamation OF all
the unions in the needle trades is the
only plan Of strengthening our organ
ICED power. Amalgamation is the slo-
gan for which the rank and file must
carry on a strong campaign in the
unions. There Is nothing to regret
in the death OF the Alliance.
