SYRACUSE, N. Y. Feb. 21.-Min-
listers whose sons 'go wrong" are
themselves responsible.
So declares Rev. John E. Miles.
prominent Syracuse Baptist divine.
He says:
ministers. like many other pro-
fessional and business men, are in.
clined to neglect their homes and
families for those whom they are
trying to serve.
"Any boy, no matter Of what sta
ton in life, must have a father to
whom he can go and unload his
heart, or that boy some day is 60
ing to cause trouble.
MY solution Of the apparent
'wayward' tendency of children of
good families would be a greater
amount of the father and SON.
spirit in the home.
II have a boy of my own and
know the problems the average
man, whether minister or doctor
or merchant, is up against.
II intend to see my boy reared
in the right way, with his father
as his companion and best friend.
Anything my son is interested in /
am, Wnetner j am or not.
Mothers should take their daugh-
ters into their confidence If they
expect their girls to be what they
want them to be.
MANY broken heart is caused
because the rights and obligations
to children are not respected by the
parents"
Prof. George A. Wilson. head of
the Department Of Philosophy and
Psychology, Syracuse University,
sees the need OF more home re.
strictions for both boys and girls
in the lessons of every day occur.
ences. He said:
There is nothing unusual about
the children of ministers or WELL
to do families going wrong.
$50 much is made of the actions
of university students when there
is no call for 1t. Out of 5000 or
5000 men and women there are
bound to be some who won't live
up to what people expect Of them.
THE parents should curb the
activities of their children more,
so that when they grow up they
will know the difference between
what they ought and ought not to
do"
