Growing With Your Child

of things it is that the child takes, and
if they are things she really needs,
should explain to her that she doesn't
need to use underhand methods of
getting them, that she will try to see
that what she needs is provided. A
child has been known, for instance, to
take money in order to buy treats for
other children, or gifts for teacher,
the motive being to give himself a
little prestige in the minds of people
whose good opinion he is anxious to
secure.
In the same way, she should watch to
see in what kind of situations the little
girl is tempted to lie, and try not to
let such occasions arise. Thus, if she
finds broken dish hidden, she should
make it easy for the child to tell her
about it, rather than taxing her with
| it severely. Many times people I'M
Willingly force children into lying, by
frightening them with the possibility
of severe punishment. Because this
may have been done in the past, it is
the more necessary to be very kind and
gentle in handling the child's misdeeds
In the end, kindness, fairness and
honesty in dealing with the little girl
should lead her to realize that it is no
longer necessary for her to lie and
steal

Jaysees Learn About
Contemporary Affairs

by postwar diplomats, etc-came III
for discussion during those tense week:
when Europe was but one step from G
general war. Each new deveior--
was followed with intense interest.
Questions of national nature are or
coming weeks, according to Mr.. Hall
They include the problem of unemploy-
ment; social problems, such as crime
treatment of detectives and the family
political theories; public utilities; pro-
paganda; radio commentators. They'll
all be given thorough airing when
these Junior College students get to
work. This Tuesday, along with a dis
cussion of the Jewish problem in Ger
many, the class wrote its monthly test
in current affairs. They're no snap,
either, unless you are proficient reader
of newspapers and news magazines, a
requisite of every class member Here
are few of them:
l. Latest central European state to
adopt totalitarian or dictator form of
government is (a) Czechoslovakia, (b)
Rumania, Co Hungary, Cd Poland, (e)
Lthuanla ----------
2. The settlement of the Chaco Boreal
issue in South America ends long
standing dispute between (a) Bolivia
and Paraguay, (b) Brazil and Argen-
tina, Co Chile and Peru, Cd Columbia
and Uruguay, (e) Venezuela and French
3. Though no formal statement has
been made by either nation, it is gen.
orally believed that the Munich accord
wrecked the mutual assistance pact be-
tween (a) France and England, CD
Russia and France, (c) Germany and
Poland, Cd Poland and Czechoslovakia,
(e) Rumania and Hungary--
For the correct answers, contact any
member of Mr.. Halls class.
Two tests on current affairs of about
los questions each are given nationally
by Time magazine each year. The
student receiving the highest grade for
the last one during the last school term,
was given 100 out of a possible los,
while the ranking student in Mr. Halls
class received 81, but three points be-
low the best for the nation.
I'VE want to help the students to
prepare themselves for the kind of life
they want to live" Mr.. Hall pointed
out in summing up the broader aspects
of the work. They display great deal
of interest in the course"

WHAT is THE CAUSE?

A foster mother who takes children
into her home to board and care for,
writes that she is much troubled by one
trait shown by a girl of IL, who has
been with her over year now. This is
dishonesty. The girl both lies and
steals, although she is a gentle, kind,
lovable child of whom her foster mother
has become very fond. The boarding
mother says that she has tried almost
everything under the sum-" in the eff
fort to break the habits, but has been
Unsuccessful.
I can't help wishing she had men
toned just what her methods were, for
she may unconsciously have been fixing
the habits more firmly, instead of doing
any good. The trouble with her treat
ment has perhaps lain in the fact that
she did not know why the girl developed
the behavior, which of course has made
| it impossible to get at the roots OF
the difficulty. Punishments, repri-
mands or evidences of disappointment
when he doesn't know himself what has
led to the habits, is pretty likely to
make matters worse, because the child
develops worse conflict, in trying to
meet the wishes of the parent, than he
had before.
Much lying in children is caused by
fear. This child may have been harsh
| ly punished in some place where she
was formerly taken care of, and she
may have found that lying made life
a little easier. It is natural for chile
to try to protect himself in every way
and a child who has no home of his
own, and consequently no feelings Of
security in the love of those responsible
for him, is doubly in need of self
lprotection.
AS for the stealing, this child may
have been deprived of the things tina
other children take for granted-ths
little things that mean much to 6
child, but which are thoughtleSSly with
held either for financial reasons, or be-
cause of the callousness of grown-up
who do not understand how much
means to be like other children, and tt

Gently when Alton was driving the

the instrument Alton will be entitled
to from one to twenty dollars depending
