An interesting but alarming little book en-
titled Teacher Opinion on Public Behavior while
providing ample evidence that the great major
ity of our children are not delinquent, has to
confess that delinquentS range from one per cent
upward One per cent of 25,000,000 pupils, how
ever, means a quarter Of million juvenile de-
linquents Some common failings "impertinence
and discourtesy to teachers" drinking intox
cants," stealing of serious nature" sex of
fenses," and cheating on homework"
The cause of these defections is perhaps too
optimisticaly placed on agencies outside the
school, but let that pass. Here are the reasons
alleged irresponsible parents, unsatisfactory
home conditions; lack of parental supervision
due to working mothers and lack of training in
moral and spiritual values"
II is at least encouraging to see the growing
recognition of the absolutely essential role of
the home. 1t was not too long ago that everyone
turned elsewhere for solutions to this vexing
problem but now reaction is setting in. So

Catholic Press Reports Social
Action Trends on All Levels

tion, The steady increase in the
number of diocesan papers
which, somehow or other, find
the space to reproduce these
documents in full is most en-
couraging.
Local Lack
Our principal criticism of the
diocesan papers in the field of
social action is that, by and
large, they tend to play up inn
portant but relatively remote
national and international re.
leases. to the neglect of more
immediate social action devel.
opments in their own localities.
In general, there seems to be
unwiliingness to report local
developments for fear, il would
seem, of getting involved in
controversy. Or, is II a lack of
adequate resources and person
mel that accounts for the rela-
lively limited coverage of local
social and economic problems
and social action stories in the
diocesan press?
Whatever the explanation, II
seems TO us that the Catholic
weeklies-or at least those in
the more populous metropoli-
tan centerS - owe 1t to their
readers TO do greater amount
of interpretative reporting of
local happenings in the socio.
economic field. There arc ad.
mittedly certain risks involved
IN this kind of reporting, but
they are probably no greater
than those involved in the
handling of other local sub.
iects of a controversial nature,
many of which are regularly
covered in the diocesan press.

Christ the Model
3. "Observe in his presence
that it is impossible to correct
him"
No child should ever be told
that he is hopeless case! A
wise parent takes him aside
and promises, Lets lick this
thing together" Unless some
one is sick mentally he cannot
say, Il had TO conn it this sin"
There and then, if he has reach
ed the age of reason, he knows
he is free. Wise parents sim
ply ignore tantrums when they
appear, and tantrums are never
permitted to pay off,
After they know and accept
what is right, children must
constantly realize that they are
trusted by their elders. Chill.
dren live up to expectancy.
That is a rule. They must not
be constantly compared to a
derelict uncle or disreputable
aunt; that is fatal. In sane,
modern way Christ must be of
fered as the model. Parents
then must know Christ better.
My pity, my profound pity,
goes to the parent who has nev.
