Dorothy Dix '3 Letter Box I i D0 Not Be Too Harsh With An Incorrigiible Boy - Persuasion and Reasoning Are Better Remedies Than Are Reform Schools if the Youngsters Have Good Backgrounds Dear Miss Dix.- I have a nephew l4 years old whom I love very tloarlv. From time to time he has broken windows, rung firebells. taken i little articles from stores that his mother made him take back. We thought he was Just; mischievous. Now he hangs around the comers with tough boys and will gamble for pennies and nickels. The other day be stole some cigarettes, sold them, and gambled the money away. The stoiok found it cut and to keep from bovine the boy arrested his father paid for them. His dad thrashes him until he Ls black and blue, scolds him and tels him he is a GISETBCS in front. of his so-cahed boy friends. but 811 W iio avail. Now his parents are threaLeninE to send him to a reform school and he says ne will be glad t0 izo there. know what makes him do these minus: that he doesn't want, to do wromt and it makes him feel terrible after he has clone it. but. that he can't. help it and thinks it is lust in him. Our hearts are broken over this boy and we don't. know what, to do. Can you sug- gest anything? MRS. C. C. R. Answer: The one thing that I not. only sugxest but also urle upon you is not t. send this boy to a reform school. 1! you do. you will tum what now is only boyish mischief, restlessness and craving for excitement into a crim- ilull tendency that you cannot correct. I.n a. reform schoo. he will be ilirown with older boys who are hardened law-breakers. who take a. pride ill being tough, who will boast to him oi their exploits. inflame his lmai- lllatlon with lurid tales of the thriling life they lead to the swag they have stolen until they will make him think that the life of a criminal ls the only life for a boy to fo.low. All adventure and excitement and no work. Furthermore, if you send the‘ boy w a reform school. you have brand- i ed nllii lol- life. He can never Live it down. So don't do it except as a last desperate resort. _ _ i The boy's father is making a terrible mistake in beating him. for you l can't. beat out of Lhe hide what's in the soul. And he makes an even greater mistake when he shames the boy before his crowd and lells him that he has disgraced the family. That takes away the last. chance of i appealing to what 1S good in the lad and sflmllllblng him to do better. be- l cause when you once kill a boy's self-respect. and particularly when YOU l i make him feel that he is a faL-ure. he is slmk. Children, to an unbelievable extent, live up to what their parents ex- ect. of them. If parents continually‘ tell a child that he is dull and stubid. lie will make no effort to learn. they tell a boy that he is bad. he W111 be just as tough as hehcan because he feels that he has to live up to his reputation of belnB a ard Bu)’. Your nephew has two points 1n his favor. One ls that he recognizes his wrongdoing and regrets it. Any sinner who repent-S C811 be Sflved be‘ cause he really wants to do right. He wants to climb out of the pit. into which he has fallen and all that. he needs is a. stronK and tender hand i0 help him pull up. _ The second point in his favor is his are. Ln adolescence boys do strange things. They are just escaping the bondage of childhood and to show their freedom they are often lawless. Something savage stirs in them that makes them vandals who have the impulse to destroy. They are avid for the pleasures that money buys and thew turn Deity mieves to get what they want. They ‘swagger and boss and lie and steal and exhibit every one of the bad traits in human nature that civilization has been trying to eradicate out of men’ for thousands of years. _ There are few boys who havent wantonly broken windows and das- tmyed other peoples property and snitched fruit of! stands and keDl» e change when their mothers sent them to the F0091’? and Whflm 8-11 the neighbors didn't prophesy would end on the BHIIOWS. yet somehow tmse bad boys nearly always grow up into fine and honest men and good c z- emso don't lose hope of any boy who comes of decent parentage 1f he e l4 - ' hen ii is . » actsvllillitayivzaauggbtef; X8668 is complete charlie of environment.

Away in the tropics, ar- mies leaf-cutting ants often strip the trumpet tree of all its foliage. One contingent ascends the branches to saw off the leaves so that they fall to the ground. where another squad of workers cuts them into small pieces for the transport ants to curry away. Some travellers say the ants use them for thatchiniz their under- ‘ which ale many yards across. So the tree. anticipating attack, sometimes akes arms against the mai-audei-s by inviting a. fierce race of enemy ants to live in its stems, which are already hollow. Those allies it feeds with solid "food bodies" on the leaf-stalk. Should the leaf- cutters approach the mercenary fighters sa‘ly forth and slay them. The accacia, of which mimosa is a relative. houses ants in the hol- low thorns at the base of its leaves. It, too, provides free nec- tar and "food bodies" for the guests, and the ants in return keen awav caterpillars and other undesiraibles But many of our everyday trees, such as maple and ash, ctirmct useful mites by the . glistening on their foliage These crawl continuously over them, though they do not find a tenement there.
