TAYLOR STATTEN-TEILS ABOUT PROBLEM CHILDREN

Taylor Statten. Canadian boys‘ work exponent and director of character education at Pickering College, scored parents who 4e. pended on "old wives tales," maga- zine "for a consideration" on the way a child ‘should be brought up.

While deploring the devotion oi some parents to "character analys- ers." he pointed out that they had served the purpose of directing attenion toward the study of in- dividual differences and stated that the most valuable service a man can render to a boy is to assist him in his choice of a vocaton.

‘Through contract with a great vancty of boys. Mr. Statten said he had come to classify parents and homes into m-gups. who could be expected to bring l!) a cetrain type of "problem child."

Canadian!‘ mment on Water-Fowl 1936 (By Hayes Lloyd Super-intend- ent Wild Life Protection. National Parks Bureau Lands. Parks and Forets Branch Department of Mines and Resources.)

Those who follow closely the water-fowl problem of the con-

. tinent know that we are dealing

with a very complicated question. It is easy in speak glibly of ducks. and their needs, forgetting that we are dealing with a score of kinds of ducks. each kind occupying a. different territory or range, and each wit hdifferent require- ments. Some kinds are untouched by mid-continent drought-they never inhabited the plains, other prairie species have been sadly de- pleted by conditions on the plains which have changed an original water-fowl habitat so that it is now

_totally unsuitable for these birds.

Let us consider first the 1936 water-fowl situation on that port- ion of the great plains of Canada which includes the prairie breeding grounds. lt stretches northward in the form of a. triangle, the base of which rerts on the Canadian- United States boundary. and con- tains an area of 250.000 to 300,000 square miles. and here a great share o fthe wild duck supply of the Continent must continue to be produced. The southern part of this triangle in i936 had one of the worst droughts yet experienced. Tens of thousands of poi. holes, ponds and sloughs and many of the largrt bodies of water have completely disappeared. ‘ind con- sequently tlie.l936 waterfowl crop throughout a large part of this suuthern area was a complete failure. Where water persisted botulism addeci_ its deadly toll.

A women with an inspired vision. undaunted zeal. and aggressive dare. A woman called of God to a definite cause. with the motto ‘Iilhfs one thins I do.’ Could we not all pray that some small portion at least of this spirit descend upon each one of us today? we suggest that a 3-year program be outlined to culminate in the year i930. the 100th anniv- versary of Frances Willards

in homes where discipline was bu“

sometimes severe. sometimes lax; where “family politics" were play- ed; father against mother; child- ren might lack appreciation of the value and necessity of discipline, and so be able to function as part of an organization.

In homes where friction existed between parents. children might develop cowardice, fits of stub- borness and temper. and bullying of weaker children.

Where parents were ovcrcareful, always exhibiting anxiety over their children and refusing to let them grow up. children became selfish and lacking in responsibility.

Where parents stressed the de- sire for perfection. fca: of failure discouraged all initiative in the child.

Where parents were autocratic enforcing demands on a “because I say so" basis. children became rebellious with an "agin the gov- ernment" attitude in later l‘fe.

Where parents were indulgent, lavl-shins. “smother love" 0n the children. they became self-center- cd. "clinging vines," expecting splecial consideration from every-

e.

“The profession of parenthood has been sadly neglected." Mr. Stattcn declared in conclusion.

The Hebrew prophets condemn- ed the use of beverage alcohol be- cause they were in close ‘touch with God. He had warned thcm aginst strong drink. He. told them how eveii it was and that it brought only unhappinors. Differ- arlt prophets of different ages interpreted God's message asoinsi alcohol. Isaiah says, "They who drink strong wine err in their vision, they stumble in Judgment." God told Aaron, “Do not drink wine nor strong drink. thou. nor thin sons with 111cc, \‘".cn ve go into the congregation. lest ye die: it shall be a statute forever throughout your generations."

greater than in the past. The southern portion of the area pre- sented a gloomy picture. The Chief Migratory Bird Officer for the district. who made an exten- sive inspection trip through south- ern parts of Manitoba, Saskatche- wan and Alberta last summer, re- ported that he drove for hundreds of miles without seeing a single natural pond or pool of surface water, or a duck of any kind and that these were the condition: he found in the midst of the old, hereditary breeding grounds ivhere waterfowl once bred in. abundance.

Arthur Cleveland Bent in his Life Histories of North American Diving Birds paints the following picture of one spot in the southern waterfowl nesting area. The time of which Mr. Bent writes was the year 1905. and the scene described was then typical of many of the prairie lakes.

‘Where the sweet water: of Bear Creek empty into Crane Lake the bare shores of a somewhat alkaline lakc are transformed into a. verd- ant slough of tall waving bulrushcs surrounding a small grassy island overgrown with scattering patches of wild rose bushes, a green oa"is of luxuriant vegetation in the waste of bare plains of south- western Saskatchewan. Here is the ; gem of all that wonderful bird i country, the center of abundance g of breeding waterfowl." ’

Let us tcciay. after a lapse of some thirty years take a look at the same area which Bent de- scribes so graphically. The Chief Migratory Officer for the Prairzes dewzribes the same place as follcivs: ,

‘Completely dry, presenting a whitened desert floor. No water- fowl. This is an area of great aridity, characterized by consider- able unbroken rrcas grown to sliorisrass typical of the semi- desert. vyith scattered sagebrush and cactus." '

Nortluvard in the three Prairie Provinces there is a fringe of netting territory for the prairie breeding species. It is fortunate that there is or they would have disappeared completely. A look at the waterfowl range maps of the continent will show that very much of Canada is outside the nesting range for species in which the hunter is interested. Each kind of bird adhere with little change to its ancestral range. .

As the migration from the Can- adian prairiei moves southward, cross currents develop which carry birds westward to the Pacific and eastward to the Atlantic. Thus a supply originating in the Can- adian Prairie Provinces affects al- most all oi’ the United States. whereas in Canada this same supply, although it reaches On- tario and Quebec and el-ewhere, is of serious direct importance only to the Prairie Provinces.

The Black Duck, the most lm—- portant species of wild duck to the hunter of northeastern North American, was greatly reduced by the loss caused by the abnormally severe winter of 1933-4, but has made a first-class recovery since that time. We are fortunate in rharing with you such a fine species which has recently demonstrated its virility in recovering from such a. severe blow.

In parts of northeastern Canada at least some of the flight liucs of Canada show improvement in numbers of birds and this is most gratifying. The Brant of the At- lantic coast continue at an un- precedented low level. Canada ha: closed the season, and the situation respecting this species is exceed-t ingly bad. Eel-grass failure is. prcsumably the fundamental cause.

One bright spot in our Wildfowl survey is ihe condition of the American Eider on the Atlantic coast. Sixteen years of effort have resulted in this bird making a slow recovery, and replenishing iis nesting areas. It is protected in Canada. by a series of bird sanctuaries on the nesting grounds.
