Landlords Who Discriminate Against Children. Bv DOROTHY DIX THE WORLD'S HIGHEST r-AlD WOMAN WRITER An ordinane? 1b to ?be .vassed )? New York; city imposing a stiff fine upon I landlords who discrimin?t*? t*.a-alnst children aa tenants. Heretofore it ha*? been about aa easy for the traditional camel to go through the eye of the needle aa it haa been for a family pos sessed of a bunch of little olive branches to pet into a first-class apartment house. Little Bobby and little Susie have been distinctly persona, non gratia. Nobody tout their own particular pa rents deaired their society. No roof longed to shelter their homeless heads. No rented doormat had "wel come" written on it for them. Pom eranian pups might find a place for their be-ribboned baskets in the tow ering mansions of the cliff dwellers, but there was no room for baby's cradle. It has been the custom to comment .bitterly upon thia and to tsay that there wa> no crime that a New York, apartment house manager would not condone except the crime of ha v?nt? Children. Also. :t haa been the fashion to picture the landlord who nun? out the "No t'hiljren Allowed" sign as a coldblooded ,'lerod, who waa ready toi murder the. innocents in order to pro- > vide hlmeefk' with childleas tenants. All of ?his is moat unjust. The ; fault is 4iot with the landlord who is j not wif-ing to allow children In his | house,**?, out with the parents who per- j mit ,<helr children to be such hood- . lunrt and vandals that they wreck the j houses In which they live and depre cate the value of all real estate in fnelr immediate vicinity. Th?? theory tha* all children are an gels who bless the place where they abide and add to the Joy and happi ness of all about them Is a pretty con celt. Unfortunately, however, it has small basis in fact. One small child will damage a placo more in a week than an adult will do in five years. And one leather-lunged infant wHl do more to spoil the rest and peace and quiet of Its neighbors than a dosen brawling, quarreling", drunken men would. Hence the popularity of child less'tenants and bachelor apartment.**. Thia Is not because wo do not love children. There is nothing elee in the world that so appeals to the heart of humanity a? a little child, and wh-^n we find one that has been properly reared, that has been taught sel f control and consideration for the rights of others, we are all ready to fall down and'worship before it. But. alas, a well-raised child now adays is an infant phenomena which few of *us aro ever privileged to be hold, although we would gladly travel many miles and pay out zood money to see one. The modern child isn't brought up by the hand, especially bv a mother's hand, for mother Is too busy doing the society act or the philanthropic stunt to have time to bother with a trivial matter, such ns teaching her own children morals and manners. Or else she II *o wrapped up In her children that she cannot correct their faults, because she is so blinded by her infatuation that she cannot see when her own offspring do wrong. And between the mother who neglects her children and the mother who cod- ? dies them too much, there Is small choice so far as results go and the general public is concerned. The neglectful mother lets her chil dren wreck and ruin and make life hideous for all about them, because I she is too much occupied with her own affairs to care what they are doing so long as they are out from under her feet, Thf overtender mother lets her children go their devastating way be cause ,tn her eyes they can do ?? wrong, and nobody should object to being sacrificed for the little dears' pleasure. The neglectful mother sends her children out in the halls of an apart ment house to howl and shriek so they won't disturb her morning nap. although she knows they will wake a dozen other people up? The over tender mother calls the nervous in valid below her a crank because he objects to h?** little Johnny playing that the sofa is a bucking broncho he ?sliding, thereby bringing down the chandeliers on the sick man s bed. Neither woman stops to consider oth<--r people's rights when they in terfere with the pleasures of her children. Neither one teaches her people, or anything about the aacred ness of property rights. It Is a Mrange and inexplicable thing that women who are honest themselves, and who have a line; senae of personal honour, do not in culcate these virtues into their chil dren's minds. They would not them selves rob you of the value of a pin, nor would they mutilate and destroy your property, but they will let their children ruin hundreds of dollars' worth of your possessions without ?lifting- a staying hsnd or uttering a word of reproof. More: they are of fended If you object anil make an ] effort to salvage your belongings. I heard a woman aay not long a?go. "[ am so sorry fur Jane. She works so hard taking care of her h6*u*e and h*?r four children. I* would like to aak her to come and bring the chil dren and spend a monrh with m** this summer, but the children simply wreck the place. They draw picture.?? with pins on my old mahocrany. and spill gravy on my rugs, and finger print the walls, and do so much dam age that I can't afford to h*vo them. Tjast time thev were h**re (t cost me $400 for repairs when they went away." Said another woman. "I would love to go out In my automobile on a country ride and fill It full of chil dren, but I can't do It because they divert themselves by kicking all the varnish off and smearing candy -on the upholstery and the mothers sit by and never say a word." All of these are common experi ences. There isn't one of us who wouldn't rather have a apell of sick- j ness than a visit from the average i mother with children. Yet there Is some one particular child so well bred, so courteous and sweet, whose coming we hail v. Uh joy and delight. So it's up to the mothers to lift the ban on children and make them once more desirable citisene. (CopjTiijht. G?9, by the Wheeler Sja?ir?le. Inet HOROSCOPE. MONDAY.
