your choice of the subject was

remember, you were given a

“And now, I take it,” said
her son, smiling at her affect-
ionately, "you’re leading up to
suggesting that I pursue the
same method with Richie in re-
gard to the comics.
“Richard apd Virginia,” his
mother was not smiling as she
answered, “I ask you to take
this seriously. I’ve just recently
read two articles on the comics,
describing some of the danger¬
ous stuff that’s in many of
them. You wouldn't let Richie
eat infected food. Then don’t
let him read these poisonous
things. One article I read was
by a famous woman columnist.
She said many of the comics
depict ‘violence, crime and'sex-
uality in the lewdest, most brut-
al form.’ Those are her
words. They’re evilly exciting,
and she said that - almost with "
out exception, they are the
principal reading matter of ju¬
venile delinquents.”
Richard was .not smiling now.
'my more tigan his mother, and
Virginia looked deeply con¬
cerned. ”1 didn’t dream there
i was anything like that in them,’
s he said. “I thought they were
just funny—like Mutt and Jeff
used to be when I was little.”
“There are just funny ones,”
i said Mrs Hardin, and some
.
j ^hat are educational. But they’re
j mixed up with the ones that

-,aid her son soberly. ‘ I’m going
to investigate them for my
-"If.”
“We’ll do it together,” said
Virginia, “and I’m roing to talk j
to the mothers of the boys and j
girls with whom Richie plays.
Why, maybe we can even ge f
♦ he stores to stop carrying thr ;
aoison comics!”
“Taat’s what seme towns in j
Connecticut did,” said Mrs. Har-
“If one town can do it, j
another can. And remember,
don’t go against all comic books, i
because seme are all right.”
"Yes, we shall have to be [
specific,” said Richard. “You
can trust me, Mem. Virginia
and I will go over them care- |
and we’ll note down the
writers and publishers of the
harmful one, and we’ll spread
the word to other parents. I
imagine many of them will be
just as surprised and shocked:
as we are.”
ARE ALL “COMICS”
COMICAL?
Habel-Ruth Jackson
“I don’t remember seeing all
these ‘comic books,’ as they
them, when you were growing
up, Richard.’
Mrs.' -Hardin, a trim, brown-
haired woman, was visiting her
married son and his wife, Vir¬
ginia. ‘ What do you think of
them, Virginia?” she asked.
“Well, i don’t know,” her
daughter - in - law returned
vaguely. “I just know all the
bb?!> 'and girls are crazy about
them. It seems as though al¬
most'any time I go into a drug¬
store, * several
youngsters are
sitting on the floor by the mag¬
azine racks, reading them.”
Mrs. Hardin turned to her
son. ‘ What do you think about
them, Richard?”
Richard grinned at his moth¬
er. “What are you getting at
now, Mom? Some bee in your
bonnet, I know. Well, two or
three times I’ve picked one up
and read through two or three
pages, but they bored me. For
the life of me, I don’t under¬
stand what’s so fascinating
about them to the youngsters.”
“Perhaps you would if you
really set yourself to find out,
observed his mother. “Richard,
I don’t know that I ever told
you, but when I was growing
up I was a rather lonely child
and I read a good deal of the
time. I read everything readable
that I could get hold of—some
of it was good, some was trash.
No one paid any attention to
what I was reading; all they
said was that I always had my
nose in a book or that I would
ruin mv eyes. So, when I had
you. Richard. I made up my
mind to get you into the habit
of reading good literature only,
if T could, hoping that then the
other kind wouldn’t appeal
you. While you were little I
picked out all your books— the
ones we bought for you and the
