MRS PREAR MAKES
VITAL DISCOURSE
Sunday afternoon MRS. Prear, one
Of Dayton's outstanding civic lead
ers addressed the commusity forum
at the Mt, Pisgah Baptist church.
She didn't come TO us with load
Of philosophical ideas and theatri-
cal plans but with vital information
revealing problems and suggesting
practical solutions.
The topic Of discussion was
| What Women can do to Better
| conditions in the Community" Lit
orally speaking, the subject seems to
be only of women interests. Yes, il
was chiefly directed to the women,
but the program was far reaching
and enlighting to everyone.
! The community being an area IN
which people are organized to achi-
eve satisfaction of their basic wish
/ es by mutual cooperation and under
standing, Mrs. Prear dealt with
| three institutions around which our
greatest community interests IN
! volve, the home, church and the
| school. "Chldren can be taught

pals of religion in the home the
T.. Il ala that

tween the home, church and school
by achieving mutual understanding
between parents and instructors.
and when there is coordination
among the social institutions Of
community there is always desirable
satisfaction.
As the discussion continued Mrs
Prear showed that reform schools
have demoralizinz affect on the
immature youth. "A child being
made to associate with other moral
delinquents causes him to form bad
habits Then she energeticailg
stated: "How can child be re-
formed when it hasn't been form
ed?" The home is the determining
factor in the moulding of ones
character.
Another thing that leads ones
life to destruction is the extreme
participation in demoralizing actlv-
tiles II was brought out that the
home should encourage more Whoie-
some activities for the developing
youth. And work in order that these
activities might be maintained
through a lifetime.
She brought in that some people
are anti-social individuals by qucs-
ton she asked during her discourse,
thus, 9Why kick about conditions IN
community when You aren't dong
anything yourself?'
Getting acquainted with your
neighbors is an important factor
that was mentioned. How can you
win friends when YOU aren ffieha-

,omestic clubs and civic organi.
cions are some of the things which
ne advised US to look forward to as
community builders.
The message was far reaching "
this respect, community solidarity Is
what is desirable. And solidarity
can only be obtained by uniting for
common interests.

Florence Rice. Ann Rutherford,
Una Merkel and Mary Howard are
the four girls, and Alan Marshall,

the men in their lives. Miss Howard
does not have a man in her life
because a patient tosses her out of

Jessie Ralph is on hand. too, to
