MUCH OF THE storm of COM
plant that has arisen during recent
years in regard to the conduct and
ideas of the young people, could have
been avoided, if the parents of the
young people were onto their job.
Young people mature earlier than
formerly. They are as mature, and
as capable of Independent action
and thought today at IA, as they
used to be at 16. Consequently the
work which parents formerly ex-
pected to do with their young peo-
pie when they were 16 or younger,
must today be done at II o. young
er.
Children up to the age of IA are
probably as docile and easily man
aged as they ever were. There al
ways has been a certainelement of
them who were refractory, but
probably no more of them now than
formerly. Under normal conditions
at that earlier age, they still feel
their dependence on their parents,
and can be regulated by them.
The thing for parents to do, is to
get busy at these earlier ages, spend
a great deal Of time with these boys
and girls, go around with them as
much as they can, and be very pa
tent in explaining everything to
them, and communicating their point |
Of view to them.
If this training is neglected, the |
boys and girls get UP to the inde-
pendent age, and then are moulded |
by the opinions of the young people
around them much more than by
heir parents. When their parents
.ry to rule them at that age, they
ire likely to break out in rebellion
Ind assert their own individuality.
But if our people here in Milford
ind other towns, will take pains
With their children at these earlier
lges, these young people should
,ome to the time when they natur-
lily assert their independence, with
strong sympathy with their par
nts, and tendency to accept their
,oint of view.

ANIMATED THRONGS of chill
dren and young people are seen on
our streets the first day of school,
some glad, some reluctant, as they
make their way to the halls of lear
ming. It is interesting to watch
them and see how happy they are as
a class. Glad to be with their mates
and exchange experiences which the
long summer has brought to them.
Perhaps it is a time most have
dreaded as a check on their freedom
and obliging them to take up tasks
not congenial. But the spirit OF the
crowd often makes difficulties that
loomed large when thought of in
solitude, appear very slight. Then
we all know the thrill Of action and
the stern Joy of meeting the hard
task and having it no longer a grim
and hostile enemy. Many of these
studies which at first will puzzle the
Youngsters will become clear and
not distasteful, and a challenge to
excellence.
Perhaps the little primary scholar
struggling with laundering ways to
accomplish the work set before him
is doing the biggest feat of all. He
is learning control of tools of life
and to adjust himself to his fellows,
a long hill to climb.
The true teacher is an artist study
ing the human material and calling
forth powers often undreamed of.
She will realize that habits are more
vital than facts. She will see to it
that the facile scholar does not be-
come superficial and satisfied with
easy success. She will recognize
that the dullard if Industrious may
become the man of destiny, whose
deliberate calm judgment and ten
acity of purpose give him powers
beyond that of his more brilliant
schoolmates. The people of Milford
follows teachers and pupils with in
terest and cooperation.
Milford chronicle., 1929-08-30

ONE REASON why many of our
cities and towns do not make the
progress that they might, is that
relatively few people feel under any
special responsibility to do any
thing for the benefit Of the commun-
ity.
If nine-tenths of the employees of
a business never show any particu-
lar interest in the prosperity of the
company, then that concern is not
likely to prosper. But many of us
show precisely that spirit in our re-
Iations to our community, and yet
we think it strange if it fails to
make the progress we expect. ALI
citizens need to cooperate to make
a city or town advance, Just as all
employees need to show enthusiasm
to make a business go ahead.

MEMORIES OF MILFORD
Editor Milford Chronicle:-


On recent visit to the "Old Home
Town." our rambles brought us to
the site of the new high school build
ing, and, while viewing the progress
of the work there, we were impress
ed with the exceptional beauty of
this southwestern suburb and what
its developments may mean to Mil
ford in the near future. The choice
of this site (while criticised by
many, perhaps), we believe was a
wise choice; and that it will meet,
finally, with unanimous approval is
almost certain.
The people of Milford and sur
rounding country are to be congrat-
ulated on the educational advantag-
es this high school will afford for
the present and coming generations.
In thinking upon this fact, our
minds go back to the Old Academy
School (now but very modest part
of the Milford Public Schools at
Second and North streets)-where
many of the older inhabitants re-
ceived their first lessons, and within
the white walls of which many re-
ceived all the public schooling they
ever enjoyed. With the coming of the
graded school system and more lib
eralized views on public school
needs, these later advantages for ed
ucation were made possible. It has
been but a comparatively few years
since the Old Academy and the South
Milford school were our only source
and means of learning, so I would
herewith attach loving tribute to

Radio Watch Setting Experiments
May Revolutionize Time In America

The watch you carry in your pocket
or wear on your wrist, or the clock
on the mantelpiece will be set auto
matically and kept regulated If expert
ments being conducted prove success
full.
Within the laboratories Of the Elgin
National Watch Co. at Elgin, ILL.,, tests
are under way for the development Of
timepieces that will respond to a radio
signal emitted from transmitting sta
ton and set themselves. Actually the
watch or clock would be q radio re-
ceiving set, tuned to the frequency on
which the correct time" signal would
be broadcast, every so often, and thus
adjust itself to the precise time.
The entire science Of timekeeping
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-10-03

would be revolutionized II the radio
controlled instrument Is perfected. in
the opinion of Frank D. Uric, research
director Of the Elgin Co. But to carry
on the extensive experimental work al,
actual radio channel must be used. he
told the Federal Radio Commission in
seeking to have that body assign to
his company a license for experimental
operation. The commission In June
refused to renew the license the COM
pany then held on the ground that It
failed to meet the required standard of
public interest
BY denying the use of a channel, Mr..
Uric said, the entire American watch
industry might be seriously UNDER
mined.

Mr.. Lawrence prefers to call his
writing comedy drama, although
there is much of the tragic IN the
mental confusion and uncertainty
which makes his ex-Capt. Dick
Banks dismal failure in both
love and business. His solution
for a tangled life and the unrest
Of civilian hum drum for the
former warrior is a return to the
air service of peace, the nearest
approach to front line excitement
and thrilling occupation.
We see the Dick Banks Of the
war days prodded into enlistment
through taunts OF pacifism and
cowardice. Thereafter no more Is

In the war Captain Banks be.
comes a noted ace and royal
companion for his khakhi-clad
air heroes. These war scenes in
the sleeping quarters of the 361st
Aero Squadron, 1t seemed to this
commentator, just slowed up the
play without advancing the dra-
matte narrative. They are filled
with rowdy and profane language
as wholly artificial as. the hokum
character who sips his grog
through a long rubber tube.
For this overseas atmosphere
and the opportunity of impress
ing that the pacifist Banks is
a genuine hero the audience is
forced to endure long waits for
scene shifting. 1t would facili-
tate matters and gain the OBJ
jective by replacing the war
with descriptive dialogue.
