Responsibility
By AnqeIo Potri

George Alfred Jones, you don't
mean to tell me you didn't leave
that order with the grocer this
morning? And here I am now
without the butter. Co this min
lutte and get It,"
"But T."
II don't care what you want to
do now. I want that butter If
you and the rest Of the family are
to have a decent supper. Ten
years. old and go right past the
door and forget to drop on the
order for the family's food. II I
had given that order to jamie,
scarcely more than half your age,
he would have delivered it. Go do
it now"
George Alfred certainly showed
a lack Of responsibility. His small
brother, aged 6. showed q feel
ing for it and could be trusted to
carry out tasks where George AL
fred failed. But their mother felt
that the older boys age counted
heavily in the matter. I have
not found that child's age had
much to do with his feeling for
responsibility. It Is likely to be
an inherent quality Of character
rather than an requirement. That
must be taken into considera-
ton In training the children to
carry responsibility. Some carry
1t as q matter Of course, some
have to acquire it slowly and
painfully by repeated experiences.
The forgetful child needs help.
In sending him on an errand,
when giving him instruction re-
garding q task. talk slowly, In
short phrases: use no unnecessary
words. Have him repeat the in
Struction to make certain he un-
derstands. Often words are but
sounds In the ears Of such chill
dren
When sending him on an err
rand, something in his hand that
reminds him of his duty win help.
A basket. pail or container will
carry q forgetful child to his des-
tination IN spite of distractions
by the way. A note to deliver, by
hand lnot in his pocket), helps in
more ways than one. Forgetful
children are often shy, which
might account for some of the
forgetfulness. and a note or q
package to be delivered seems to
shield them from the personal
contacts they dread.
The forgetful, or neglectful,
child needs careful attention
Make certain his physical condi-
ton Is as perfect as possible. Try
to keep him happy by words Of
encouragement and, when possi-
bic, praise. Begin by giving him
simple errands that can be ac-
complished promptly. at once

I'll States and % municipalities

million people have passed laws
against discrimination in employ
ment."

Larsen declared the league ''faces

parable to the obstacles it has
surmounted in the past"
Then, turning to relations be-
tween the league and newspapers,
he suggested "that every effort
be made to get more newspaper,
magazine. radio and television
people into the league as active,
working members. A journalist
who has a personal as well as a
professional knowledge of a cause
is obviously better equipped to
present the cause to the public"
He said he did mot think that
it is to our interest to attack any
