cEresoikorao A woman has written to ne, want ing to know what to do in the case of her son. She says he won’t go to school, he won’t do useful work and tends generally to consort with disso lute companions. I may as well confer right now that I cannot answer her question. I know nil the argument, about lave and kind treatment and psychological study and patience and so on, and I know also that there arc cases that none of these things fit. 1 do not suppose there is one family among my readers unable to confess to some sore of black sheep; some boy or girl that persists in going wrong in spite of everything. Much is said of preachers’ sons who turn out badly **nd the implica tion is that they have been treated too strictly in their youth, so that in later years they rebel. Some say that children should be carefully disciplined and rigidly in structed, but such children have not always done so well in later years. In fact I have known the children of utterly loose and careless parents to turn out to be strict model* of propriety, and others who have had every advantage of favorable envi ronment go swiftly to the dogs. Some say that children should be given their freedom and allowed to do as they please, hut that does not always work. You may talk about your heredity and about o child inheriting the bad traits of his grand uncle and about environment and about the whole trouble with children being that they are not properly disciplined. All this is very interesting reading. But the fact remains that the irresponsible and wayward sheep is in almost every family of my acquaintance. Not long ago a prominent banker showed me n letter he had from his son, telling him that if he did not receive some money immediately he would commit suicide. The reply of the hanker may not have been judici ous, but it was interesting. He mid to his son, “I have no money to send you, but don't let that deter you.” TOOMBSBORO LOCALS Mr. and Mrs. J. G.
