Parents h And Pals, h T00

Even Most Devoted Fall Te Make Intimates 0f Children

' Taking, them by and large. the great majority of parents love their children dearly and make many sacrifices to give thorn comfort-

‘ u-ble homes. good educations, and even the kind of sport togs that the

other kids have. But the fathers and mothers who are friends with their youngsters are almost a.s'rare as white blackblrds-

The average parents have little more than e. bare speaking sc-

v quaintance with their children. ‘They are devoted 7a their Tommics and Sailles. They are kind and lu- rlulgent to them. They are frantic lf they a.re lll. But they are not. on confidential terms with them and the whole neighborhood knows more about what the youngsters are-doing and thinking than their fathers and mothers do.

A brilliant and famous old man once said to me that it was the regret of his life that hehad never really had a man-to-cnan talk with his fatn- er. for he was sure that they would have been so congenial if they had only known each other well enough to have been friends.

Probably this ls a common experience, for when we think back to our own childhood most of us realize that after we outgrew our in- fantile babble, we never had any free talk with our parents. Perhaps this was because we stood in such awe of our fathers and mothers that we nevecopened our hearts to them. or because they always tacked a lecture onto any confidence we made. or made a funny story out of the secret we whispered to them. But. whatever it was, it raised a barrier that we could never break do\vn, and that. made it easier to tell ihillgS .o a stranger than it did to our parents.

ABETS DELINQUENCY

This inability of fathers and mothers to make friends of their ildren is responsible for much of the jlil/Glllle delinquency which ls such n. headache and heartache to the world lust now. For how can parents guide and protect theinboys and girls if they don't know vrhat they are thinking and planning and doing?

If home is a place of taboos in which children have as little per- sonal liberty as they would have in a. concentration camp. and if par- ents never speak to their adolescent children except to correct them, and deprive them of their foolish little childish pleasures. it is in- eviabie that they will drive their youngsters into doing by stealth what they are not permitted to do openly, for youth will be served.

But these tragedies do not happen in families where Father and Mother pal up with their kids from their very infancy. and ivhere there are no autocrats who rule the helpless children in their power with a ruthless disregard of their happiness and desires.

No foolish young girl gets into trouble when her mother is her most intimate friend who will listen with sympathy and understand- ing while she tells about what a grand party it was and how many cu‘.- ins she had. and what a peachydancer Johnny is and how she thinks maybe she is in love with him. ‘The girls who go astray are those who ihave to lie and cheat to have the fun that belongs to their time of life. and whose mothers are always strangers to them.

’ Lucky the youngsters whose parents are also their best friends.

Jamie sad I have had what he voted "n. great day" today. 8e spoke of it thus when 'we were on our way ln- the road ls dusk and a light rain were making the dis- tant hills to the North which we, faced, misty. The day began for us when he came not loo fur past breakfast on his first trip to Al- derlea unaccompanied and ended not long ago when I must see him return safely to his home. It was fortunate that he came, not only for the spells of angling we enjoy- ed but also to find the second lambkin belonging to a ewe in the shed which James had overlook- ed. "We have a new lamb" James told us when we were about to sit down to supper and at his words Jamie was away- in haste to tse barnyard to view it, returning Ils- ently with the news “not one-but two!" and later found it difficult to tear himself away from watch- ing them when the time came for him to go home.

A-fishing we have been almost all day --Jamle and l. In the morning when the dinner was trusted to a slow fire. we angled at the gang-way bridge. Then a strong South wind set wavelets on the surface of the stream and made us turn up jacket collars and hold rods with mlttened hands and our taking wltllal was only one trout. “Guess they must have been all washed out in the freshet" Jamie observed, angling with the patience of a grown-up. though rewarded only with odd nibbles. The one, fried in butter and even ly divided made a. nice tidbit for the men folks at dinner. “Reckm we'll have to try it again" Jamie said when the meal was over and the dishes washed and put in the m h... cupboard.

The brisk wind of morning hsd calmed now leaving a pleasant stillness which often precedes rain and in it our takings improved In- deed when a shower danced on the water and since shoulders were becoming damp. I said "we should g0 up to the house” Jamie was doing very well for a novice. ‘Jn- assisted he landed a half dozen in a row and ln a spell so short as to make him an enthusiastic angler forever. l-le learned to bait his hook with the remark that "girls are never too fond of doing this-mother doesn't like it!" and also to cast neatly. though there. were the delaying occasions when lines became tangled amid the alder branches and hooks and sinkers became lost to us forever when caught hard and fast on s submerged root.

We had the fishing grounds to ourselves today and except for odd teams including the mallmaifs led- en wagon that passed lane's e-ui. the quiet of our surroundings was unbroken. There were moments when‘in the interests of silence we berated a noisy passing crow and we stopped to hear a persistent wood-pecker tap-tapping on s tree in the woods beyond. At evening along places still deep with snow we went homeward with Jamie, pausing on our way to hear the musical trickle of thawing streams dropping down to soil the miii ‘ _

For many years the Sylvester method of restoring the circulation m the apparently drowned or L1 gas poisoning was in 89118111 i1"- Thls required at least four assist- gntg who, of course. were not ul- ways available.

He then is placed facing downward again. and the assistant presses the palms of his hands against the back of his ribs-about 12 to 14 times a minute-lifting his hands to allow the ribs to spring back again.
