SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY
Reviewing the Problem of the Drama League, the

Drama Discussion.
"Groups of people meet in public
library buildingr, to discuss plays. The
league sends leaders to these groups
to conduct the discussion if the peo?

are playwrights who want to get the
people's point of view at first hand.
Some are actors, some teachers.
"A group decides what play to seo
and then announces that at its next
meeting this play will be discussed.
In the discussion each person acts as
a critic of the play and of the others
opinions.
"By degrees the individuals come to
some agreement as to what constitule?
a play worth seeing. Thus high stan?
dards of taste are developed.
"Th? popularity of these discussion
groups is growing. New ones are being
formed. Their influence is spreading,

Here that there are at least a million
people in ?Vew York who stay away

Social Parenthood Explained by the Woman
Who Made.Ett a Moving' Force
in Boston.
Mrs. Rice Tells of the Fathers
and Mothers of Eier City Who
Are Helping Subnormal Chil?
dren Through an AwaKen
ing of the Family Spirit.
By Sarah Addington.
ONCE in a great while there is i
mother somewhere who, afte
training and petting and lovin'
her own children, has plenty of tim?
left for other little children, whercvel
she happens, to find them. She is th?
woman to whim people turn with theii
family problems, whether it be hei
wealthy neighbor next door or Mrs
O'Kourke, of the patch.
I'p in Boston there is one of thes?
"social mothers," who has a very con
? creto and growing movement to hei
cr dit, a sort of extended "familj
movement" fathers not excepte?!.
It started as a Fathers' and Mothers
i i'luh, in 1901, when thirteen mother?
and fathers met to discuss child psy?
chology, home hygiene and some of the
problems of parenthood, and il
remained for the president, Mrs. .Mary
Pamela Rice, to realize that they wer?
selfish to give their results only to theii
own children. With the consequence
that Mrs. Bice projected the work of
that small private club into a farreach
ing public benefit a force that put
nurses into the public schools of Bos?
ton, that takes the starved and subnor?
mal children from North End, Boston,
and feeds them for their bodies first,
and then for their minds and hearts.
Warmth, Instead of Institutional (hill.
And it was Mrs. Rice, in the larger
aspect of social mother, who saw that
what was needed was not moro insti?
tutions, but rather a home atmosphere
to replace what has well been named
the "institutional chill.'' And this
I w:.rm, human rating of children has
been Mrs. Bice's contribution to philan?
thropic endeavor.
"They aie so starved, these children,"
. so Mrs. Rice, who has been in New
j York for a few days, plead for them,
. "and we had so much that we could
! give; it seemed to me that the Fathers'
and Mo'hers' I'iub was aclfiah to keep
, from those poor children the things
i we could give them, the understanding
, and care and love that they needed so
i badly."
!t was at the end of the third year
j of the club, then, that Mrs. Rice, with
htr fifty members the club had been
' growing steadily - set about the busi
I n._S3 of making a home for some little
j children who, they fell very sure, need
j ed home influence very badly, little
I children who were ?quatting in the
glitter, rolling around the streets, cry
i ing for food, suffering from illm
Jt was rather much of a'tight to start
DVintry home, for funds and faith
were both rather low. But Mr
how to buy upon strictest econ?
omy, and even her estimate of $100 a
month total expense for the keeping of
twelve children was high, for th?
few months the home was run for
?.lightly less than $!i0 a month.
The Rotation of Families, of Twelve.
Those first months proved the game,
however, and the home is now open all
the year roumi, with sick, frail children
coming and w? 11, happy children leav?
ing, all in the atmosphere of bright?
ness and helpfulness, which is not the
|atmosphere of their tenement world.
T home is run as a real home, not
las an institution; the limit in num
bers is twelve children, who stay iron
six weeks to three months, fhe hea,
is a house mother.
"Our first airs is to get the childrti
well and strong, permanently so,
mean, for just a mere little improve
nient in health doesn't last then
through the season, in their slum con
dition. Then o?ir next aim, and reall?
our fundamental aim, is to show then
the true spirit of helpfulness in fam
ily life, to give them ?ome impressiot
of their own little duties to their fam
ily, to correct false notions of their re
I lation to the rest of the world, to maki
| of them true little members of society
Put, as I say, tirst we feed their stom
i.chs and cure their ills, then gradually
i come the other things.
"We make a great point of their in
'? dividual responsibility, not only foi
themselves, but for the other children
: They try to help each other to be good,
and that way everybody's good finally
even when they are a 'gang' or a band
\ of hoodlums.
The Seed Is Planted.
"Of course, we should not have nc
; complishcd much if after they left they
' returned the same abnormal children
that they were before, nut they don't.
; Their whole idea is to go home and
' show their mothers what they have
learned. There was one boy who had
been such a nuisance around the house
? that his mother was nearly distracted.
Put when he came home she said this:
'Sure, and you ought to see my Mickey.
Fat he is that, and, what is more, he
washes me dishes and tidies up the
room. Helpin' his mither is a man's
work, they've taught him.' And 'helpin"
their 'mithers' goes a long way in the
life ?if those people, whose ideas of
doing for one another so often means
that one member of the family does
hing and the rest do not do their
share.
"And then, if you teach the children

Mother Boston's School Children.
The Fathers' and Mothers' Club has
fathered and mothered all the Boston
school children, too, in putting nurses
into the schools of Boston.
"It took us three years," said Mrs.
Rice, "but that's because it's Boston.
| You did it in New York almost imrae
; diately upon suggestion. But I talked
; far and near and loud and long, I went
! before the Legislature, we had meet?
ings and made experiments, and final

I were installed. And the result was
splendid. We found many of our so
? called s?upid children were only deaf,
: and that many of our sick children were
easily curable."
The club is now planning to add

from making a larger group than twelve.

from the "social parenthood'' of an

"THE SULKS" AND CHILDREN'S INDIGESTION
A trifle, or cien tuv trifles,

By SIDOMF NATZNER CR?ENBERC.
IT WAS the lart day of school, and
Fdith had gone to her friend's
house for the afternoon. When
I she came home it was with a glow of
excitement. Martha was to spend the
-week with her aunt in the eot I
[ and Fd.th was invited, too. i
mother had several goo?) reasons in her
mind for not allowing Edith to go with
Martha, and she felt that she could not
tell the most important ones to the
child. So she told some and left the
rest to her authority.
But of course Fdith was not Sat
She really wanted very much to go.
; And from teasing her mother to change
her mind she worked herself into a
state of resentment not unm.x.-d per?
haps with rage. So it came about that
i when dinner was served the little girl
! waa in anything but an amiable mood,
and she announced sullenly that she did

exercising h?r discretion in affairs of
moment. "What, not eat?" he cried in
a voice suited to his part. "Wha* m n
sense is this? She must eat!"
Edith sat at her place. She sipped at
the soup. She chewed meehsnieally at
the food placed before her. She i
at the dessert without entln.
And throughout the meal there ? ?
silence, while the feelings were ea
tranged and the minds wandered from
the immediate business of the hour.
Good F??i?d Wasted.
Now. the results of many inve I ? i
and experiments made by
tists would had us to conclude that a
meal eaten as was this one represents
a quantity of good fund gone to waste.
S'obody enjoyed the ta^te or the flavor.
nobody appreciated the effort to make
i the table and settings attractive, and so
, far as nourishment is concerned it would
seem that the child especially would
have been better off without the meal.
For these experiments show that,
whereas the flow of digestive juice.?
im,I the vigor of the n-.uscular ?
in the digestive organs are both in
d by pleasant emotions, they arc
I both retarded when the ?'?
too deeply Itirred. And when there is
1 anger or worry or fear both the gland? i
and the muscles of the digestive organs
may stop work altogether. I'nder these
circumstances the food remains in the
stomach only to cause distress later.
\w.i.l the Disaureeable at Meal limes.
In this particular case it would have
been the part of wisdom for Edith's
mother to separate her momentous de
momentous for the child as
muc), . . from the imr<*nding
It is 'rue that ,n many house
! holds the people see each other v'crv
, ici pi in the migliborhood of
meal time. But for this very reason
we should reserve fur the meetings the
most cheerful and stimulating of the
day's topics and problems. In any case
the disagreeable and the depressing
shouhl be removed from the danger
zone.
It often happens that disagreeable
decisions must be m*.<le. And they will,
of course, affect the child's mood un
favorably. But a mood cannot last very
long; if the derision is made early
-rough the nervous system may h vu
tine '" i- -.--?:" its equilibrium be!
pin time to eat. But should the
me too clo?-e to
-. at the child has lost i
all appetite, it is better for him to
'he eating.
Of course there are other things to
consider besides the child's feelings
for the time being. It is important to
maintain a certain regularity in the
children's lives. There must be fixed
times for many of the routine things.
There is also much to be said for the
moral value of "controlling" the feel
inga so that they do not break out at
inopportune times to interfere with th*
programme or with the convenience of
Hut when all is said and ?lone
it still remains true that in cases of
extreme agitation it is best not to re
i sort to forcible feeding.
With older children in fairly goo?
health there is seldom an indisposition
to eat at the usual time, except as a
result of an emotional disturbance. But
with younger children who have not yet
established the eating routine the prob?
lem arises very freo'i-ntly to perplex
and distress the mother. Sometimes
the child will refuse to eat this or that
o' wl ?>ad sometimes the
appetite w:'l be -o fickle that it se. m
irr.pos.-ible to fix regular hours for eat?
ing.

essary the ?spinach or beef juice ma;
bo that the child refuses to take, it ii
practically worthless if it is forces
upon the child under circumstance
that are agitating. You may wheedl?
or trick the child into taking it, yoi
may disguir-e the food by combinins
it with something attractive, you mai
bribe the child or cajole him in any
way your ingenuity suggests, but th?
moment you apply force and arouse re
eentment you bring abou* w.thin the
child conditions that tend to neutralize
all the benefits of the special dish. It
is better to iet the child go hungry
than to feed with force. Children who
are solicitously guarded are not in dan?
ger of suffering from a fast of several
hours.
The game applies to the child whose
refusal to eat at your time makes it
impossible to fix regular habits. A
mother who complained that her t-vo
yearold could never be induced to eat
admitted that she gave the child a
cracker or some other trifle between
rreals. but on adoring the advice to
give the child absolutely nothing el
cept at meal time she was able in two
days to develop a marvellous appetite
three times a day.
Children must be fed. but force must
not be used as an appetizer.
FOUR THOUSAND LEFT-OVERS
ASK DELAYED VACATIONS
Postal Appeal of Susie and Johnny Prove? That
Friends Are Not Forgetful?One Hundred

They don't intend to be mean, but th?
just plain forget. Maybe it'i becair
they are so busy with a lot of othi
things. ?
That's the way Johnny "figgered"
out. There were three thousand e
more of his friends of former yeai
who had failed to give their customar
sign of friendship for the lad this sun:
mer, and it worried him.'
As he said: "I ain't done nothin' t
'em to make 'em not like me any mor?
I guess they jus' don't remember me.
Under the circumstances he deter
mined to take the bull by the horns an
find out what was what, anyway. "I'l
; write 'em a postal and ask what's th
| matter," said he.
So he called in his sister Susie as col
' laborator and together they evolved th?
; following, which they are mailing t?
1 most of their recalcitrant friends:
"Dear Friend:

"Looks nice, don't it, Johnny?" ?aid
Susie, as she proudly surveyed the re
, suit of their joint labors.
"Yep," rejoined Johnny, "but I won?
der will we get any answers."
They didn't have to wonder long, for
| almost before they thought the cards
? had arrived at their destinations
i Johnny found these in his mail:

SAYS MAHARAJAH
Indian Potentate Shifts Talk
from War to Praise of Amer?
ican Women.
"It would take at least a year to see
your wonderful country so as to be at
all familiar with it," said his highness
Jagat Jit Singh Bahadur, Maharajah of
Kapurthala, at the Hotel Nassau, Long
Beach, yesterday afternoon.
"This is such a pleasant place to
rest," with a gesture taking in the view
of the ocean, "for a few days," the
Maharajah added with a smile. "You
know that after New York the rest of
your country seems just a a little
slow."
"Yes," said Prince Kannsit Singh,
the Maharajah's son, who is about
twenty, "Chicago is too commercial, and
San Francisco- well, after you have
seen the exposition there is nothing
to do. But I like it especially New
York?oh, very much!"
"But tell me, please, what is the lat?
est war news?" asked the Maharajah.
His eldest son is serving at the Brit?
ish front. "The Arabic sunk! Ah." and
he raised his hand with a despairing
gesture. "But the whole war is horrible
that is all one can say. The Germans
seem to be successful in Russia; but
what if Poland is won by them, the
Russians still have a great deal of
their country left. Yes, there are not
enough Germans to cover all of Rus?
sia's territory, I think."
Then the Maharajah abruptly
changed the subject. "One thing which
I have noticed particularly," he said,
"is that your women do so many things
that the men do in this country. They
are in business, they are journali-ts
everything. And woman suffrage? Per?
haps. That depends much upon educa?
tion; but I do not believe in violent
demonstrations." And the Maharajah
shook his head.
