answers we haven't had room
for before, leading off with an
opinion of Rockne Paolelli of
Elmwood Park, H., on the
topic Is 10 better to hare
Ioycd and lost than nerer to
H0re IOUed at all?
Dear Miss Robinson:
DECIDEDLY yes, ii Is better To
love than to go through life
frustrated, lonely and with no
lovely memories to enrich your
declining years.
Loving some one develops
character. One gains "A certain
inner confidence, a knowledge
Of the other sex, an uplifting OF
the soul. Spiritually one feels
sense of rightness, of the
beauty of life. Having given
ones self unselfishly to that per-
son whom we consider entirely
IONabIe, ii does not matter
whether we gain or lose that
persons love. Though one would
have n feeling Of Illustration and
unhappiness for n time, one
would always have countless
tender memories.
ITO not have loved at all
would mean barren disaster both
mentally and spiritually. For in
loving one receives n gift more
wonderful than wealth or power
:. the great gift of understand
Ing and spiritual fulfillment
which only love can bring"

Afraid TO Be Bad

Do you refrain from doing evil
because you fear ( h e conSc-
quenCeS or because YOU hope to
be rewarded for being good
Henry BilIick's answer is based
on a deplorable belief in natural
human depravity.
"MOst of us are good because
we're afraid not to be. II We
could get away with stealing,
low morals and general cussed-
ness with no penalty attached,
I shudder To think how many OF
us would do so without a sec
Ond'S qualm. It's because we're
afraid of being found out, and
what folks will say, that we
watch our step.
Everybody wants to be con-
sidered as good as the next man;
that's what keeps him on the
straight and narrow, But j be-
lieve anybody would do anything
he thoEght he could get away
with. It's the unknown conse-
quences Of evil that keep most
folks good hate TO admit II,
but we're Just not good for
goodness sake"

made regardless Of the location Of
the institution, Judge Bentley sup
ported the recommendations for fir-
ing full-time counselor and a
family case worker.
The committee pointed out that
there is no one to keep in touch
with child's family and work to-
ward making his home a suitable
place for his return. 1t suggested
a counselor, to study each child ad-
mitted, assist In vocational and edu-
cational planning and to serve as
liaison between the institution and
the school to which the child re-
turns.
I'VE can remedy the situation now,
if the people will face the problem
and come to grips with it," she as
serted.

better personnel should not wait, !
even until the home Is moved in
November to temporary quarters on
Macarthur boulevard, Judge Bentley
believes.
In her opinion, the home is paying
for and getting custodians when it
needs personnel trained. in child
care.
"All children require a sense of
security" she observed. They GER
tainly never will develop normally
unless persons dealing with them
understand child psychology and ap-
preciate their emotional needs"
The councils committee reported
II vacancies at the home, including
the job of assistant superintendent
and six in the school. Remarking
that there are only two professional
vacancies on her staff, Judge Bent
ley attacked the idea that more and
better personnel for the Industrial
Home School is unavailable.
Say They Are Available.
you can get them if you pay
them. I don't say it would not
require effort"
The first responsibility of the COM
munity, she added. is to recognize
that specific training and ability to
work with children commands a
salary above that of a custodian.
The councils committee found
that even the superintendent, at a
salary of $4,000, was underpaid. The
chief supervisor of boys gets 5000.
The school principal receives $4,000.
Matrons and attendants get 81 500
1t will take time to get the posi-
tions reclassified, she noted, since
the Welfare Board would have to
present request to the Commits
Sioners; the Commissioners would
have to approve it and the Civil
Service Commission would have to
analyze each job. So the sooner the
machinery starts the better, she
reasoned.
All types Of problem children go
10 the Industrial Home School. Judge
Bentley commits them to the We'll
fare Board, and the board places
them under its supervision. Their
average age is between 13 and IA.
Respond to Kindness.
"These children need to relax their
tenseness," Judge Bentley said.
They will respond to kindness and
understanding. They come from
homes where they have suffered
emotional privation. To place them
in home where the privation con-
tinues serves no purpose"
She warned against AN attitude
of defeatism" because conditions
have long been bad and facilities are
inadequate.

government and are designed TO

vide more wholesome living

felt over Liberals own failure

pie who make up the country.
a commission OF Negro news
paper men returned from West
Africa early in February having
spent approximately three months
visiting British and French colo
mes and Liberia. They were ap-
palled al the things they had
observed in the country that Is
supposed to be an example Of
Negro administration and self
government.
They found country which is
about TO celebrate 100 years Of
independence in which about
10000 Americo-Liberians domi-
nate between million and a
half indigents. They found a
small government clique appa-
rcntly more concerned with re-
naming on the government teat
than in improving the welfare
OF the people They noted that
although three representatives
from the hinterland provinces
had been seated in the legislature
it was but a poor beginning.
From reliable sources 1t is
learned that the Liberian budget
Tor 1915, their best year for in
come in history. was more than
S2,000,0O0. Out OF this sum less
than $4,000 was appropriated
for education and less than
$4,000 for public health and
sanitation.
There Il an awareness In Of
fetal quarters that American Ne
groes hold a sentimental attach
ment for nations with black an
cestry. The concern. however. Is
the extent TO which understand
ing OF internal problems and con-
ditions OF these countries may
so. The belief is held that II may
not be sufficient TO support a
stcrner attitude toward them,
end 1t is to satisfy this doubt
that present consideration Is be-
Ing given.
