May is the month when the focus
of attention is directed to mothers
and each year mother is designated
as one who is outstanding. A first
qualification is that she must reflect
a strong religious and spiritual in
tegrity. Her children's accomplish
ments must be such as would have
been inspired by goodness and char
acter.
Mrs. Elias Compton was one of the
first women to be designated for
this honor. Mother of three sons and
one daughter, all having made out
standing contributions in the field
of science, education and business,
she was guided, she said, in raising
her family by common sense and the
Bible. One of her sons, on being
asked what he remembered most
clearly of his mothers training said,
Mother always began the day with
prayer"
Mrs. Compton gave this illuminat-
ing bit to mothers, 81 think parents
get more in the way of discipline in
taking the right care of their chill
dren than the children do them
selves" Church attendance for
themselves as well as seeing that
their children have religious training
is definitely matter of discipline for
the parents.
The story is told of General Eisen-
hower's mother being asked if she
were not proud of her son, replied,
(which SOM"
We are told, Train up child in
the way he should go; and when he
is old he will not depart from it."
But if he has never been shown the
right way, how can he know which
way to go?-AMY MARTIN.

An Editorial
"HOw About Your
Children"

THIS IS THE SELF-searching
question on the front page of the
April National News, the official
publication of the American Legion
auxiliary. 1t is printed above a pic
ture of a young mother seated with
two young children kneeling beside
her.
The American Legion and its sis
ter organization, the auxiliary, have
gone on record as acknowledging the
low ebb of spiritual and Christian
training children are receiving today.
We all know that an all too small
percentage of young folks are being
given any religious training in their
homes or the churches.
The national commander of the
Legion says: eve must have
mighty and continuing rededication
of our faith in God"
The best institution in which to
make this rededication is the church
1t is for that reason that the Ameri-
can Legion and its auxiliary are urg-
ing parents to go to church, not only
on Easter and Christmas, but on
every Sunday. How can parents ex-
pect their children to have interest
in things spiritual when they put no
emphasis on them?
The qualities of fine character are
learned from Christian fathers and
mothers. The statement of Saint
Theresa bears repeating: 'It helped
me much that never saw my father
or my mother respect anything in
anyone but goodness"

Vas Grandmother Right?
Times Have Changed, But
Have Child Problems?
By BLANCHE WATSON

The reply, futile though it always
is, runs like this:
mo, but runaway horse was just
as much of worry on dark nights
to mothers of that day as cars are
now. AS for beer parlors, they too,
had their counterpart, but since re-
spectacle young people brought up
in nice homes wouldn't have dreamed
of entering them, that was some
thing we were spared"
Then the age-old argument is on.
Grandmother insists that the reason
for the beer parlor hazard-she adj
about cars except to teach of the
dangers and then pray hard-is that
nearly all parents indulge in some
sort of drinking, social or otherwise
and have allowed liquor to be CLAM
orized in movies and periodicals until
it is accepted as casually as ice cream
soda. This, she declares, the par
ents of her day, especially the moth
ers, would never have allowed.
Times Have Changed"
Daughter comes back with some
thing like this: s'Times have
changed, Mother. People circulate
more freely and, with all the time
saving gadgets, they are more re-
1axed and ready for fun. And since
liquor is here to stay, apparently,

is THERE A GRANDMOTHER
living who has not choked back
sharp criticism concerning the dis
cipline and upbringing of her grand
children? And is there one who has
not heard this retort: ''Things are
different now, Mother. You cannot
apply the philosophy of horse and
buggy days to present problems"
If Grandma is the persistent sort
she will hold her ground with the as
sertion that basic principles do not
change, merely the perspective.
Granted, the material things with
which children are surrounded are
different, but human nature remains
the same. The same temptations, the
same reactions and the same conse-
quences resulting from bad behavior
patterns will remain Identical
throughout all time.
A selfish, disobedient child if not
curbed will bring down on his head
all the bitter punishment which that
sort of person always has and always
will. 1t is so inevitable that one is
continually amazed that it has to be
learned the hard way over and over
again.
Cars VS.. Horse and Buggy
Again, the daughter says to the
grandmother: "You didn't have fast
cars and beer parlors with juke boxes
to tempt the young in your day."

By Hillard J. McFalI

Recently officials Of several

Commissioner Prendeergast ask
ing for more protection for de-
1iverymen in the Negro areas Of
Chicago.
1t is known fact that the po-
lice department is undeer-st stated
and the city budget will not per
nit the hiring Of more patrolmen.
If all channels were used, the
police department. would have
more help than. they could use.
and the taxpayers and business
men would have adequate pro-,
lection.
You have a number Of special
patrol services on the South Side
who have done quite well in af-
fording protection against robbers
ana the protection OF private
property. !
When one Of these r"Unsung
Heroes" enters a place Of bust
ness in the absence of a CITY
police officer during trouble, he is
a pleasing sight to the troubled
proprietor.
These men are qualified to work
under police supervision to aug
ment the regular force. Then
Why not let the unions hire or get
a contract with these agencies on
the South Side, the North and
West Sides, to place Special pro-
lection squads" Of private watch
men to roam given areas during
the working hours Of deliverymen.
