Manners
of the
Moment

"A N AUDIENCE, We always thought,
went to lectures to hear the lee
lures. We can't imagine what others
reason there would be for going.
But apparently we're wrong. Audi
ences, it seems, usually gossip and
litter and pass notes and read books
and watch the door. A friend Of ours
who has to make speeches to women's
clubs now and again tells us that she
always feels like an intruder, be-
cause every one in the audience al
ways seems to be so very busy at
other things.
OF course, the real trouble (but
don't you tell her we said so) Is that
O wandering audience encourages
wandering speakers. A speaker gets
so interested in trying to make the
women in the corner look up from her
knitting that he pads his speech with
more and more anecdotes. It's really
getting quite dreadful.
So we plead on bended knee in the
interest of shorter speeches that when
you have to be part of an audience
you at least try to look as though
You were listening. JEAN.

Real Cause
OF Runaway
Is Hidd e n
Reason Must Usually
Be Carefully
Analysed.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

"TOHN HENRY, why did you do such
a thing to your father and moth
er? You must have known that they
would be wild with anxiety when you
did not come home and did not let
them know where you were for days
and days. 1t was cruel. Why did
you do such q thing to people whose
only desire is to keep you safe and
happy"
Jaw, the teacher was sore on me.
She never gave me q chance. I didn t
want to 60 to school any more. and
I knew my father and mother would
make me. The teacher never gave
me q show"
So. It was the teacher. The
teacher who had struggled for weeks
on end to get this half-grown boy
to do enough work to pass to the
next grade was his excuse for run
ming away from his job. There Is
always an excuse given for such be-
havior, but 1t can rarely be taken
as the reason. The reason Is usually
hidden from the child and must be
searched for before coming to any
conclusion.
When child runs away from home,
or school, or work you can be cer-
tain that he was failing somewhere,
and that steady failure has 50 both
cred him that he could bear it no
longer and took the only way he
could see out Of 1t. His excuse Is
usually the teacher, the mother, or
father, the foreman, anybody or any
thing will serve as a scapegoat. The
fact that he puts his finger on some
obvious person or situation makes it
difficult for us to get to the actual
cause. He clings to the obvious, to
the surface thing, transfers his feel
ing to 1t and feels better.
It Is hard on the teacher and the
parents, who have done their best
to help the youngster. They are hurt
to the quick to have this lamb Of
their bosom turn into q fox that bites
them. II they can realize the true
state Of the child's mind, know that
he is mentally confused, truly help
less and Is using them as q symbol
Of his unhappiness perhaps they will
feel better about it. Helpless people
always blame those who try to help
them. It does not matter. What does
matter is that we find the real cause
Of the child's trouble, remedy it, and
start him again.
First test out his health. Adoles-
cent boys and girls are likely to have
periods Of restlessness, Of great fatigue,
of apparent slowness of mind and
body. There are still teachers who
make no allowances for such chill
dren and who press them upon the
sore spots. Test out the conditions at
home and in school and try to make
the child fit to face them If possible.
Forcing him to face them while he
is unfit will do no good and will end
In the dramatic and futile runaway.
Don't accept the excuse he offers
too readily. Listen to what he says
and read through 1t to the reality be-
hind it. His excuse, the teacher, the
parent, the boy next door, the pain
in his head, Is usually the obvious
thing that appealed to him as the
cause Of his trouble, while the real
cause remained hidden to him as well
as to others. Don't feel outraged.
Just wait until your anger dies and
look for the reason. Then work to
remedy it.
