ties that the school cannot do the entire Job,
that the community must be aware of what
the child needs and that the two working
together can develope the guidance that is
needed"
After presenting several interesting case
histories from her rich experience, Mrs
OKely made the following practical sug-
gestions in her conclusion:
''We have found, too, that if child can
work with others through experiences with
the teacher and share these experiences, if
you can plan opportunities where girl gets
within group or boy gets within group,
and they plan activities and carry them out
...they will bring to you many problems that
will help you in helping them to improve
their relations with one another AS have
worked with our children, ! think about
what we have attempted to do in that Mid
Century White House Conference What are
the child's needs as social individual?
What can we do as community people, as
mothers, fathers, storekeepers, man of the
street? You would be surprised to know
how children, adopt certain characters that
they would like to be like. If you are sure
that the man who sweeps the street is bet
ter individual, you are sure Of better COM
munity. And that is all, think, to help each
one become better individual in mis- own
community and in his own way
Our own Mr.. J. Louvelle Taylor, Proba-
ton Officer of the Juvenile and Domestic
Relations Court, Roanoke Virginia, gave
the background of the subject from a COM

munity and court standpoint, in very in
telligent and scholarly manner. Some high
lights of his address follow:
"1t is not always the therapist. the ply
chologist, the phychiatrist, the phychiatric
social worker, who does the treating of the
maladjusted child. In many instances it is
the person who has the sympathetic under
standing, such as the teacher, the minister,
or the neighbor who has taken little time
to think about it, to understand and to rec
ognize certain symptoms and, by doing so,
is able to definitely help improve child
who might be considered socially maladius-
ted"
1T has always been my opinion that any
effort TO improve socially maladjusted child
ren or to eradicate delinquency or any other
anti-social trend necessitates plan where
by the emotional stylings of the individual
VIII be satisfied in a way that is compatible
with social standards of the group in which
ne is living. 1t is also necessary that we, as
leaders of the community, people interested
and anxious to help improve situations in
volving children who are not quite so nor
NAL, get together on social standards Tt is
no wonder that the children are confused
as to what is right and what is wrong; for
we can't get together on what is considered
wrong to do and what is considered right
to do"
Mrs. Beulah r. Caldwell served as a most
ably and efficient Mistress of Ceremonies
for the meeting. Mr.. L. A. Sydnor is prin-
cipal of the Harrison School

for Girls and Women throughout the United
States and Canada. She was member of
the 1850 Mid Century White House Confer
ence on Children and Youth, and has been
nominated for the Scroll of Honor by the
National Council of Negro Women.
Mrs. OKelly stated that the prime pur-
pose Of our community and state agencies
organizations and institutions is to return
the emotionally and socially maladjusted
child to his community as an asset and not
a liability. She traced the past PHILOSOPHERS
of education and community welfare back
to the time when.... the community provided
the life experience of the child. 1t provided
the job, it provided the recreational activi-
ties. School was merely to teach the three
Rs Then we found in the Industrial Era
that school was set apart. Our children went
up and learned something about the fine
arts, literature and Latin and what have
you. And parents in our community knew
nothing about what was going on in the
school. But we were striving to attain some
thin gfor the child. That era has passed. We
are coming now into another era. We are
beginning to become aware of the fact that
children, community, school, all go together
that children are going to live in commune
