"To take dancing and music away from bobby-soxers Is like taking a lollipop lolli-pop from a baby" H By LYN CONNOLLY (Guest Columnist for Miss Norris) tT TOW An I know mv son is not in with the wrong boys?" an an guished mother in Ohio cried recently when headlines carried car-ried the disconcerting story of an apparently model lad who had led a group of teen-aged teen-aged youngsters into numerous numer-ous robberies. "He's out most of the time and I hope he's keeping out of mischief, but I can t keep my eye on him every ev-ery minute." . Indeed not. Nor should it be necessary neces-sary for any mother to constantly "spy" on her children. It is her duty to raise her sons and daughters daugh-ters In a friendly atmosphere; to encourage them to come to her when they seek advice and not belittle be-little them if their problems appear trivial. In order to have a model child there must first be model parents. par-ents. If the father of the family takes some time from his many duties to play baseball with his son or to repair a toy, teaching the child at the same time how to do it himself the next time it Is broken, and if the mother takes some precious pre-cious moments otherwise devoted to her household duties to listen to her son's account of the day's events at school, a concrete foundation founda-tion Is laid for a happy childhood, one It will be difficult for the boy to discount when temptation rears Its ugly head his way. There is nothing more heartwarming heart-warming than a household where parents share their joys and sor rows with their child, inflating his eso by allowing him to feel and think like an adult. There is nothing more tragic than to watch parents skulk about the house, whispering to each other when a child is pres ' ent. or speak to each other with their eyes, movements that bewilder be-wilder the boy and make him feel unwanted and insignificant Only First Step. Laying the foundation is only the first step in the right direction. When a child is ready for school it is not a sign for relaxation on the part of the parents. Instead of believing be-lieving that the worst is over, it must be remembered that the worst is yet to come. As the Ohio mother noted, one cannot keep an eye on a child all the time. He may meet a companion at school that is not the right kind of associate for him, but one you may not meet until too late because the boy lives on the other end of town and plays with your son after school hours on the schoolgrounds, leaving at dark for bis own home. Having playmates at home should be encouraged and made further attractive by the offer of cookies and milk in mid-play. Your home will soon become a welcome meeting-place, and that's all to the good, for you can see for yourself the type of children your boy has chosen for his buddies. As children grow into their teens. It sometimes becomes impractical and expensive to entertain their friends at your home. Tat swing music from the phonograph may make father queasy and the jitter-bugging jitter-bugging in the front room may cause unfavorable comments from the landlord or neighbors. Yet to take dancing and music away from the bobby-soxers is like taking a lollipop from a baby. It isn't fair. There may be no decent place In your town at which the younger set can congregate, or even if there Is, It may be too expensive for most of the boys to take their girl friends, Thus, the need for money is brought home and therein lies an ominous cloud. mmsi mm "A foundation for bappy childhood.' MAKE HOME INVITING Too many parents worry about their children instead of helping them. They wonder where their sons and daughters daugh-ters are playing, what they may be learning on street corners, cor-ners, what dangers they may be facing. All this is so unnecessary, unneces-sary, says Miss Connolly in today's to-day's story. What every child needs and wants is companionship, companion-ship, attention, appreciation and affection. He will not stray away from home for satisfaction satisfac-tion of these primal wants if be can find it at home. The young child should have an attractive place to play, fitted up with swings, teeter-totters and sand piles. His father and mother should play with him whenever possible, help him mend bis toys, arrange ar-range games and so on. Teenage Teen-age children who want to dance and eat more than anything any-thing else can be influenced to stay around borne if a "teenage "teen-age cmteen" is set up at one of their parents' homes, or at the church or community house. Teen-Age Canteen The most sensible solution to this problem has come from the young fry themselves. Why not a teen-age canteen? They asked the question and were Ignored. They've pleaded and no one heard them. Adults find politics and the possibilities of an other war more pertinent subjects to discuss than raising additional funds to build a town project for the good of their youngsters. But let your hometown paper relate the news of another crime committed by a teen-ager and the hue and cry is raised again "What can we do with them?" The question is not "what can we do-with them?" but, "What can we do for them?" "Nonsense!" father or grandfather grandfa-ther will scoff. "We had no teen-age canteens in our day and our generation genera-tion grew up all right." Statistics have proved conclusively that there is more juvenile crime today than ever before in our history, so undoubtedly un-doubtedly father would be right in his assertion. He does not take into consideration, however, the fact that we are living in the atomic age and that youth is restless. How can adults speak about a third world war, the demolition qualities of the atomic bomb, the possibilities of another depression and other disheartening dis-heartening subjects without thinking think-ing It affects the social lives of their children? Will Trim Delinquency. Teen-age canteens will not eliminate elimi-nate juvenile delinquency, but they certainly would be a long step forward for-ward in trimming it down a good deal. There should be a youth center cen-ter In every town, with a committee of parents elected annually so that every family shares the burden. This committee will be in charge of socials, special parties for St. Patrick's, Pat-rick's, Valentine's Day, Thanksgiving, Thanks-giving, Halloween, etc. Activities need not be confined within the environs en-virons of the canteen. The committee com-mittee can arrange for hay rides, wienie roasts, hikes, swimming or bicycle parties and numerous other pleasures. They'll be eternally grateful and will show their appreciation appre-ciation In becoming intelligent and interested citizens. They will seek to emulate as parents the understanding under-standing you gave them when they needed It most. This will be your reward, and surely no parent could wish for more. Food Outlook Bright. This year's domestic food supply probably will be about as large' as last year's but may cost slightly more, predicts the U.S.D.A. A larger proportion of the total supply will go to American consumers con-sumers this year because of the indicated in-dicated reduction in military needs and exports. There will be: more beef, canned fish, canned fruits and Juices, sugar, dry beans, spices, cereal products and butter. Prices will continue high. His Hope Surgeon There's no hope for your recovery.
