BATTLE OF GERMANTOWN

BATTLE OF GERMANTOWN
To-day is the l52nd anniversary Of
the famous Battle Of Germantown
which took place October 4, l777, be-
tween the Americans under Washing
ton and the British and Hessians un-
der Howe.
Washington opened the engagement
early in the morning of the 4th and
at first his army forced back the
British and victory seemed almost Ger
tain.
But the Americans became con-
fused in the fog and opened fire on
each other. while a body Of English,
who had taken refuge in a large stone
house. in the rear, detained q part Of
the American forces.
The accident. coupled with the con-
tinual firing in the rear. threw the
American troops into confusion, but
Washington succeeded in restoring
order and led them from the field.
The British lost SIS men and the
Americans 673.

Talks
e. Parents
WORDS
nv ALICE hudson pcale1

Never have people thought So much
about their children. never, surely,
have they talked SO much about them.
Intelligent mothers with restless
zeal read books and take courses to
help them in the arduouS task of
parenthood. They learn about the
child They develop a vocabulary
full of such words as 'infcriority,"
inhibition and mother complex"
They acquire a multitude Of labels.
but not always do they CLEAN from
their studies that precious insight
which makes knowledge something
more than a matter of vocabulary.
There Is, ! fear. among us modern
parents a tendency to substitute
words for insight, talking for doing.
Words are SO easy to acquire. In
sight and the power to act upon It de-
mand discipline not Of U children,
but of ourselves.
To call your child's shyness an "in-
fcricrity complex is one thing. to love
and understand him SO we'll that you
are able to build up his self conf
dencc and draw him into happy ac-
llSlLy ID QuAlC dllOIIlC.. ~ ACSOR.
nize that your child is an 'introvert"
is not in itself helpful. TO feel and
meet his need for active pursuits and
childish companionship is much more
to the point.
Too often one sees parents whose
use of the vocabulary of child psy-
chology is but the charting Of the
confusion and inadnnllacv which nx-
lists within themselves. It serves as a
salve for the conscience while they
turn their backs upon difficulties
which would require but real good
will and common sense for their So
luton.
Words are tools Of knowledge. and
while tho bringing up Of children can
be helped and illumined by them, the
understanding they imply must pass
through the heart Of N who is hon.
est and mature before 1t can become
effective.

Editorial Comment
The Red Cross and China
lWashingtnn STAR

Quite ptly tie New York Times describes the report
Just issued by the American Red Cross about farlire con-
ditions IN China as lone Of the most depressing docu-
ments that has ever been issued b. this organization.
which has done SO much to alleviate human suffering"
The report elnanate5 from the three special commits
sioners sent TO China earlier in the year at the instiga-
ton OF President Hoover. They were headed by Col.
Ernest p. Bicknell. the seasoned Red Cross executive in
charge Of foreign activities. Conscientious inquiry into
famine conditions led him AID his associates to join In an
account OF INSTRUMENTATION. OF callous carelessness, of
crass indifference. and Of conduct generally that depicts
China herself. to an appalling degree, as the architect Of
her own miscries. or at least as the victim of some of
i,r self-scesing, so-called leaders. It Is a pitab!e nara
tive. It must have grieved the Red Cross to feel COM
peiled to sponsor 1t, for the inclinatiens. as we'll as the
traditions of that world alnoner all run in the direction
CT succor, almost under any circumstances.
