Recent months have indicated
a steady and alarming rise Of
juvenile delinquency through
out the Nation. The problem has
employed much study from many
of our topnotch organizations and
individuals.
A careful review of the find
ings of these organizations shows
the concern of our Parent Teach
ers Association in search Of rem
edial methods in this respect
Also we note that legal and leeis-
lative sources have been called
upon for new approaches to the
problem.
But before there can be any
gratifying results from all of these
attacks against the undesirable
habits of today's children, we
must discover, first of all, the
fundamental causes of all of this
This writer believes the three
conditions, listed below, as being
basic causes of juvenile delinqu-
ency:
!. The struggle of most Negro
families to attain economic Sc
curity.
2. The lack of widespread pub
lie housing programs to supple
ment private capital for adequate
housing.
3. Delayed action of public Of
ficials in providing suitable play
ground facilities for ALL chill
dren Of America.
For a clearer understanding OF
the problem we might state that
we, as Negro Americans, realize
that in most regions Of the coun-
try we are the glazing victims OF
the policy of last hired and first
fired" As a result, many of the
parents do not make enough
money to remain home lone
enough to instruct and gain con-
fidence Of their children. Conse-
quently, much of the training due
the child at home has to be plac-
ed upon the shoulders of the
teachers Of the nation, whose pro-
gram of instruction is already
overloaded by too many student.
in one class to give expert atten.
ton to individual student prob.
lens.
Now the question of adequate
housing facilities represents an.
other condition, the lack of which
gives rise to poor health and dis
eased minds as to social right.

Needs Fertili1inq

Now, given the soil and the
seed, there is still one problem
left-that of feeding. Shade is
usually caused by trees or other
large plants. Their roots are in
direct competition with those of
the grass plants for the food
available in the soil. Don't be
misled by the fact that the
grass is out from under the tree
itself. Tree roots spread for
many feet in every direction.
There is a cure for a possible
lack of nourishment for grass
and that of course is fertiliza-
ton. But the usual sprinkle
once a year won't do. A shady
lawn must be well fertiiiZed at
least twice a year to keep the
grass healthy and vigorous.
And just putting the fertilizer
on the ground won't do. either.
IT cannot get to the roots except
in solution so be sure and water
well directly after fertilizing.

Chewing's Fescue, one Of the
best for shade, comes from New
Zealand. so is still available de-
spite the war. Poa trivialis
comes from Denmark and you
know what that means.
A mixture of these two, plus
bluegrass and redtop for support
makes an ideal combination for
shade. The redtop comes up
quickly and acts as a cover or
nurse grass for the others.
This mixture, II IL is to grow
well, demands some body TO
the soil. 1t will do better in
shade if the soil is clay than if
it has to grow In sand. There
fore IL might be an excellent
idea to add peat or humus OF

Grow Grass
In Shade
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Dstrsit Tines Gardsn Editor

WE HAVE a great many let

grow grass in very shady spot
and have been unable to do so.
This is not a single problem.
Rather II is a combination Of
two sets of conditions and cor
recting one will not correct the
other.
In the first place the grass
planted cannot be just any
grass. II must be a kind that
will tolerate shade or there is
no hope at all that IL will thrive.
Fescue (there are several kindsl
is the outstanding grass for
such situation. In normal
times another grass goes with
