DELINQUENCY IS THE GOM- MUNI'l.'Y'B RESPONSIBIIJTY

Sonia years ago I was commis- sioned by the government to make a physical examination of the boys in a refomi school. Although my work consisted of examining the entire body-eyes. hearing, lungs. hem. and other organs-I took time totalk lo the boys End ask about their home life. I learned that the majority of the boys came from homes broken by death- desertion or divorce. Another fact I learned was that when the mother died first. delinqubncy 00' curred sooner.

our research workers in Juitenlle delinquency state that the pEl'10d before the child starts school, ages 3 and 4. is the critical age. .

"The modern concept of motiva-. min of antisocial behavior niusti not remain the special rcsponsibil-; rity of any one professional dlsri-, pline.

A cause of dclinqucncy may he. a physical defect-cross eye. poor. eyesight. 8. loss of hearing. The. youth may develop an inieriorityi complex or may lry to make up for the physical defect by "lashing out" at those who are normal. However. the greatest blame, stafcs Dr. Blackman. rests with the parents. "The growing child is raised with a sense of isolation. on apprehension and tension which stem or arise Jrom ihe emotional, aloofness shown by immature par-' enfs. The thought then is for par- ents to go closely info the mailer! of school reports, make sure that. .physical defects are corrected in- sofar as it it possible and see that the youngster plays and mixes with ofihers, thus learning to take his own part and respect the rights of others."

An linusual Hobby Bocoiim Popular

EDMONTON.-(OP) - when I friend in Rhoda Island first told Mrs. Earl Quincy of Edmonton ab- out button oilscting, Ibo scoffed at tho idea. .

But that was 10 years. and some 4.000 buttons ago. Today. rm. Quincy has one of the finest col- lections of buttons in North Am- erica. she is a charter member of the Rhoda Island, stow Button Society.

"Buttons are antiques in min- iature," she says. "Button collect- ing opens up a. background in re- search of the theatre, arts, history. clothes and customs of the times."

Mrs. Quincy has buttons of early bone. calico buttons wom by front- ier women. buttons of ivory from

secret messages, silver buttons with the heraldic crests of English nob-

derbilt stables, cameo buttons

court beauties painted on silk and even the lowly overall button- each with its own story.

The discs worn as ornaments on Roman and Greek togas were the forerunners of buttons, Mrs. Quin- cy explains. The nobility wore them as jewelry.

Francis l of France, had 13.600 cnld buttons on a single costume nnd Louis XIV once paid 314,000 for ll diamond and jewelled button.

Women weren't admitted to the button world until 1850 Later Queen Victoria, in mourning for her consort. popularized jet and

To IVriLe A Book

Every button opens up new channels of research. Mrs. Quincy is writiniz it book about the golden

age buttons, popular between 1820 and 1850. Mrs. Quincy says the hobby of

I-collecting buttons goes back only to 1938 although many a grandmoth- er kept her button string, spurred

,by the legend that "she who col- 'lcc-ts 999 buttons will never have .10 sew them."

There's ii special button shop in New York for unusual buttons and in Hartford, Conn.. the state mus- eum has a collection of 90,000 but- ' tons.

Lei Him G Don't Try To Hold Relucfenf Lover -

DEAR Miss nix: Two years ago 1 mat 5.... with whom 1 ani' now very much in low. M the time of our meeting. he was engaged to Mary. Shortly after the engagement he went into the Army: Mary dgtetd others, then broke the engagement-and Bill's heart! He turn- s a me. I wrote him every day and restored his faith in women. I grew - to love him and thought he was slowly coming to love me, too. When he returned from aervice we begun going together and I was sure he had for- gotten Mary. Now I find that he has been seeing her. He doesn't know that I know this, and he doesn't want to hurt me. I realize he is still in love with Mary. However, I cannot feel that I am doing Justice by letting him go with her, knowing that she was once unfaithful. Neither do I want to keep him bound to me against his wishes. In my opinion there are two ways to determine the problem. Should I tell Bill I have seen him with -Mary, and let him decide. or should I keep sllenf. hoping that devotion and patience will make Mary's love seem foolish? - I want to make Bill as happy as possible and hope that by doing the right thing he will be. Either he .foi-gives Mary. or learns to love lhe lzirl who was loyal. The decision lies in my hands, for I know he would never do nnyihlng to hurt me. yet is confused between his love for Mary and his obligation to me. DORIS I. L.

ultimate choice is Mary, I can readily are he person, generous and understanding. How- ever, the heart is an unpredictable organ, wandering where it will with no thought of wisdom. If Bill still love: Mary. as it would ap- pear be does, it will be best for both of you if you let him go wlfhout further ado. For Bill's sake, it is to be hoped that Maryis fonner treatment of lilm was due to a misunderstanding rather than a fund- nmenial flaw in her own characfcr. that she has now profited by the mistake and is prepared to give Bill the love he deserves.

TELL HIM YOU KNOW '

Rather fban continuing ii deception, it would be best for you to fell Bill you know he has been seeing Mary. and ask him what he wants to do. if he iii uncertain. continue seeing him for Al while: in the long run it may be harder on you to take this dclnying action. but Ihere is always a chance it will give you Bill for keeps. Don't nag him about Mary. go out on other dates yourself. and give him lime to make the decision. Put if in him very definitely (but the choice is his--even though you know the decision is now up to you.

There are. however. two other points to consider. One is Mnryis personality. If you honestly feel that she hasn't the qualities Bill needs in a wife, you'd be actually hurting him if you surrendered your claim too easily. Then there is Bill's own character. Has he really been in love with you. or have you felt right along that his affection was franslfory? You caught him on the rebound. Will he resent your trying to hold him, even if his feeling of obligation keeps him at your slde??

' My summing up of the situation is that Mary probably broke fhc engagement in a fit of pique and hastily regretted if. that she and Blllrhave never stopped loving each other and probably never will. and lhat under the circumstances it is best for you fo let him go gracefully. it's much better for you to suffer heartache now than to wait a few years nnd have your heart completely broken. You will find someone else to lake Bill's place, as impossible as I know It seems now.

DEAR MISS DIX: For the past six months I've been going with ii man in his late forties. He recently lost his job and since then has shut himself off from everyone. He won't come to see me unless I make a special point of asking him. when he comes he doesn't folk and is very moody. I'd like to help him. but don't know how. i RUTH R.

ANSWER: For ll man in his 40's to lose I job can be ii frighten- ing thing. Tlicrc still exists the erroneous but widespread theory that no one past 40 is capable of working. and your friend probably fears the effect of this. He shouldn't, since jobs are not too difficult to find nowadays, and even men in the dofaze of the 40's can be in de- mand.

He needs something to rebuild his confidence. and of course I! Job is what will be most effective. Continue to coax him to your lhouse, give him the self-confidence that he needs to go out and not a job. then pray that he finds one. His maodlncss mny count against him if he leis it show to prospective employers. Try. gently, lo make him realize if. Good luck!
