Correct Child
Rather Than
Punish Him
Study Misbehavior
For Its Cause, but
Don't Stress It
BY ANGELO Pafri

Many teachers spend anxious,
weary hours in placing the blame
for something somebody did. Usu-
ally it is not worth while. If a
serious offense has been committed
it is unusually easy to put the job
up to the offender, and the more
quietly that is done, the better.
These happen rarely and require
little time for discovery and treat
ment. What happens frequently,
and uses too much time and energy,
is the trivial breach of discipline,
annoying but not of primary i'm
portance.
Somebody throws a paper wad
when the teachers back is turned.
Somebody scrawls a crude draw
ing on the blackboard. Somebody
marks the wall. Don't use much
time searching for the culprit. Pick
up the wad, erase the drawing and
the marks, and put the energy on
solving the problem of the pupil
whose interest lies in disorder in
stead of in the fields of his school
work. That is where the teachers
profession is to be eXercised-not in
policing, in blame placing.
Instead of asking, Who did
that?"-instead of stopping work
to search for evidence-go on with
the teaching and begin a study of
the work of each pupil, marking
those whose work shows tendency
to slacken, or to fail, and concen-
trate on bringing these up to the
highest possible level of achieve
ment.
This concentration on the work
of the individual pupils will put
them in new and interesting light,
and the freshened interest in the
teachers attitude will pull up the
rest of the class and heighten their
response and broaden their reach.
The trivial disorders will be for
gotten in the important matters on
hand.
After all, it rarely matters who
did the wrong thing. The only rea-
son we need to know him is that
we may reset our approach to him
in order to give him what he needs
to arouse his interest and co-opera-
tion. 1t is the pupils growth in in
teligence that concerns us, not his
lapses. These lapses serve to call
our attention to the fact that some
child in the school is failing, which
to teachers mind says, you are
failing with some child. Find him
and set him right and keep him
growing"
Every breach of discipline should
be noted, not for placing the blame,
but for consideration of the pro-
gram, the management, the admin
istration of the class or the school.
AS a usual thing, children who are
living under wholesome conditions,
working well up to their capacity
and within their interests, behave
with dignity and good sense. When
children break training it is the
school ands the teacher who are
challenged. Both must rise to the
occasion.
1t is best not to emphasize such
breaches. The less said, the better.

Dear Miss Dix: We are a family
of average means-a husband, wife
and two grown sons. A year ago
my eldest son married and brought
his wife to live with us. As we were
anxious to give them q chance to
get start financially, we have
never charged them board. Even
paid for their laundry. My sons
wife is a healthy. strong girl, but
she has never offered to help in any
way with the housework, although
I do all of my own work, even most
of the laundry. She doesn't keep
her own room clean, just sleeps and
reads novels, or sits around so lazy
that I have to sweep around her
feet because she is too indolent to
move. She now has a baby and she
doesn't take decent care Of 1t. My
son says he doesn't care how lazy
or careless she is, eS she suits him.
Things have come to such a pass
that we have suggested that they go
to housekeeping and have offered
them a gift of furniture to start on,
but their reply is: "We like it here
and don't ever intend to leave"
Can you offer any kind of solution
to all of this that won't cause too
much damage to any ones feelings?
PERPLEXED.
Answer-You can't deal with the
situation in your home with a pow
der puff. You've got to use a sledge
hammer Your parasitic son and
his wife will have to be evicted by
Strong-arm methods. They will
never go of their own accord. Nor
could you blame them for that. Free
board and lodging and mother to
nurse the baby, gee, that's a cinch
if anybody ever had one!
I don't think in this case you
need feel called upon to consider
the feelings Of the youngsters. All
the feeling they have Is Just rock
bottom selfishness, and If you can
do anything to jar that you will be
doing missionary work on them.
They have never considered your
feelings. No sympathy for you has
made the lazy, trifing wife help
with the housework or even take
care of her own baby. No compass
sion for his father has made your
son try to tighten his burden by
helping to pay the grocery bill.
On the contrary, he has dumped
a second family on poor old dad to
support. I believe that parents
should lend their children q help

To Become Family Parasites

ing hand, If they possibly can, when
they get married, but that doesn't
mean assuming the support Of the
newlyweds. 1t means assisting
them to get established in Z little
home Of their own and then leaving
them to fight 1t out on their own
When nom and dad do more than
that they do their children more
harm than good, for 1t takes away
from them all sense of RESPONSE
bility, all necessity to work and
save. and it encourages in them the
habit of dependence and Of passing
the buck to some one else instead
of working out their own problems.
If, for instance, your son hadn't
known he could take his wife to live
on father. he would have waited to
marry until he was able to provide
a home for her. If he had had to
pay board he wouldn't have been
able to 90 to 80 many movies and
have q car, but he wouldn't have
worked his poor mother to death
and the chances are he would have
saved more money. And II his wife
had had to get up and cook her
husbands breakfast and keep her
house clean she wouldn't have de-
veloped into the lazy loafer she il
now.
1t isn't too late yet to save your
son and his wife If you will make
them set up their own home and
depend on themselves. But you will
have to get busy about 1t. Emulate
the birds that throw their young out
Of the nest as soon as they are
grown. Surely you have as much
sense as an English sparrow.

Cotton Not Only Topic
AS the Press Meets
Miss Alice Beasley
By Helen Vogf

The talk was about green apple
pie, nylon and (not too Strangely
cotton when the fashion press met
Miss Alice Beasley at luncheon on
Monday. It was logical that the
charming redhead with the South
ern drawl should talk about cot
ton, for she's the daughter Of a
Tennessee cotton planter and has
been chosen Maid Of Cotton" as
well.
Miss Beasley Is making q i4,000-
mile air tour to appear in large
cities and model in all-cotton fash
ion shows such as the ones in which
she appeared locally on Tuesday
and Wednesday. The fabric has
her approval, too, because there are
so many variations in weave, as
well as possibilities for complete
ensembles. In the shows, for ex-
ample, she wore cotton play outfits,
street dresses and evening clothes,
to say nothing of cotton jewelry
and stockings.
Those stockings, incidentally,
caused much CONSERVATION. It
seems that Miss Beasley always
wears cotton ones-mesh affairs
that are very sheer -looking-but
when she arrived in Washington
she was down to "a pair and half"
which she had to wear in the fash
ion shows. So, being a cautious
young lady, Miss Beasley saved the
cotton ones and put on nylons for
her entrance into the Capital.
Newspaper stories followed and the
cotton manufacturers lost no time
In wiring their effervescent good
will ambaSsadress that q new ship
ment OF the approved type was en-
route.
And as for the green apple pie.
1t looked as though the odds and
the menu were against Miss Beas-
leys getting it, at first. But q thor
oughly confused waiter was finally
convinced by mixture OF hard logic
and soft Southern charm. ct was
good pie, too)

ments from that area. Especially
affected have been peppers, sum-
mer squash, both white and yellow
and cucumbers. Peas from the West
have been poor in quality and high
priced the first part of the week
String beans, although bit higher
than usual, are very good. Aspara-
gus is wonderful and getting lower
in price all the time. Limas from
Florida and Cuba are good, and to-
matoes from Mexico are excellent.
New cabbage, broccoli and caull-
flower are reasonable and very fresh
and tender, as are young carrots and
small white turnips. Spring kale,
spinach and turnip salad are recon-
mended this week, too.
Fruits show little change, and, un-
happily, very little variety. The first
Louisiana strawberries are due in
town this week end, but rumors are
that they will be quite expensive.
OF the South American fruits, the
honeydews still are the best, al
though some of the white grapes are

reported.
But, fortunately, the owner wasn't
satisfied. He examined the tire him.
self, discovered the cut, and promptly
hit the ceiling.
He had good reason to be upset.
He and his wife, with their two small
children, were starting on a long
trip, leaving the next day. They
would be driving fast. and that tire
was in such a condition that it un-
doubtedly would have caused blow
out within few hundred miles. The
result? Well, you all know what
happens when Q tire blows at so
miles an hour
The garage proprietor was a con-
scientious man. He felt that he
couldn't have the lives of his Gus
toners endangered by a careless en-
ploye. so Bill lost his job. At that,
Bill got of lightly. He might have
been morally responsible for the
deaths of four persons.
There are thousands of boys and
young men working in filling sta
tions and garages all over the coun-
try, changing and repairing tires,
making minor adjustments on au-
tomobiles, servicing them in a dozen
different ways. These fellows prob
ably feel that their jobs aren't very
important. Sometimes they are
downright dull-just the same thing,
over and over again.
Yet, actually, these boys are car
rying a pretty heavy responsibility.
One moment Of carelessness on
their part can mean Inconvenience,
danger, or out-and-out disaster for
some unsuspecting motorist. And
this Is just one example Of the fact
that you can't afford to be slip
shod or thoughtless on any job you
hold, no matter how ordinary and
routine your work seems to be.
We know another case of a 16-
year-old boy working on summer
Job in factory, who one day let
his curiosity get the better of his
good judgment. In trying to dis
cover how the safety device on a
machine worked. he left 1t In such
condition that it wouldn't operate.
Ten minutes later an innocent work.
man was carried out Of the shop with
. broken leg, caused directly by the
failure Of this safety device.
This boy didn't lose his job be-
cause the only men who knew about
the incident protected him and
kept 1t quiet. But he suffered plenty
from realizing that he had caused
. man with a large family to lose
some 10 weeks work. A thing like
that isn't very pleasant to have on
your mind.
We didn't mean to go morbid on
you, but we think there's thought
here that you young fellows who
will soon be leaving school and
starting work, can't afford to ignore.
And that goes for the girls, too, and
for all you young people who are
already working.
No matter what your job is. no
matter how unimportant or how
uninteresting 1t seems, you can be
sure that the welfare and safety Of
other people is somehow dependent
upon 1t. A careless typist or a
laxative secretary can easily cause
her employer embarrassment or
financial loss. A don't-give-a- darn
grocery clerk can give a whole club
food poisoning. A slipshod workman
