XKBD OF A GUIIKKG HAND.
(Although tho (purpose of these
articles on Catholic lay activities is
to present as forcibly as posslblo the
need for a practical lay apostolato
In a general way, rather than to
offer a specific programme for
action, tho problem presented by tho
caro of our youtih, particularly of
delinquent boys and girls, is 30
acuto that a slight digression into
this field will be pardoned, especially
If, as Ave propose to do, the sug
gestions " offered arc given in tho
nature of examples ior activity In
other fields also. In the last article
reference was made to tho efforts
'Big Brothers' and "Big Sisters"
might undertake in behalf of youth
ful delinquents. A still greater task
Is suggested by tho question: What
can we do by way of preventing and
eliminating some of the causes that
aro responsible for our quota, as
Catholics, of youthful delinquents.
On the basis of an analysis or theso
causes prepared some months ago,
and approved of by experienced
social workers as in agreement with
their own observations In this field,
wo now -venture a constructive pro-

gramme for further efforts.
Priests, especially those, in charge
of parochial, schoOU, as well fits
assistants In Sunday-schools, tho
directors of Joys' clubs, etc., should
study tho children and carefully note
any sign of unusual vlclousness on
their part. Retardation in -school,
especially if this be duo to other
causes than sickness or legitimate
absence from class, should be in
quired into. Any unusual physical
defect which might prove a handi
cap to the child later on should be
taken note of. This may be done
without hurting tho sensibility of the
child or interfering with tho rights
of the parents. Sometimes the cur
ing of such a defect in early years
spells great success for tho future
of the child. We know how often
the removal of tonsils and adenoids
has at least cleared away obstacles
to the mental growth of the child.
Defective vision is sometimes respon-'
siblo for poor work a't school, and
this in turn may lead to discourage
ment, frequent absence and occasions
for getting into mischief. Excessive
shyness, stammering and stuttering,
a tondency to solitudo Tather than
sharing in the usual diversions of
childhood ought also to be taken
note of. Their causes ought to bo
ascertained and tho parents duly In
formed. The latter, if sensible, will
hardly take this interest in their
children amiss, and the treatment at
school should be continued by the
parents at home. Parents them
selves will therefore have a large
share in determining the happy
futuro of their children. There
ought to bo a willing response on
their part to the suggestion and In
structions of the teacher, priest or
sister. Unfortunately we have not
the aid of school-nurses and special
attendants who are such a fine help
to tho teaching force of other
schools. Until wo have such
auxiliaries we must make extra
efforts to shield our children from
untoward influences.
Again, can not all priests, teach
ers, parents and social workers
strive more consistently to develop
(he will of our children and their
resisting power to first evil in
fluences? It is unwise and unjust
to allow our boys and girls to plunge
suddenly and unprepared from the
THATS A FAIR QUESTION

anxiously guarded life of the
parochial school, with Its numerous
incentives to vlrture, into the world
where an entirely different standard
of moral values prevails, and where
evil influences turn up at every bend
of tho road. We do not mean that
tho teacher should draw lurid
pictures of a wicked world which
is only set on ensnaring tho in
nocent, nor do wo hint at the neces
sity of "sex-instruction." But we
refer to tho need of constantly
presenting to the young not only the
best models of a holy Hie, as exem
plified in our saints, but also those
motives and means of keeping their
Christian character unsullied, which
have helped many a youth to pass
successfully through tho stress of
adolescence and to keep his faith in
the ideals of younger and more In
nocent day3.
There aro finally, besides tne
causes of delinquency mentioned in
tho analysis referred to above, cer
tain dangers which we can minimize
by steady co-operation. That the
movies aro responsible for many a
moral breakdown In ehildhood is
now freely admitted ny. men who
can speak from authority. Tho pic
tures may encourage tne cnim s
tendency to wrong doing, and In
stead' of giving him worthy ideal3
may contribute to greaier inurai
deficiency. Even the colored supple
ment of tho Sunday newspaper,
despite all assertions to the con
trary, may sow a seed of moral de
cay in tho child. "Nightlife", in the
largo cities Is a prolific source of
moral evils, and there is absolute
ly no excuso for .parents or suara
lans in granting children the liberty
of streets and boulevards after dark.
How some Catholic mothers can
persist In neglecting their duty on
this point, and that for years, and
even when they are being made
aware of the havoc such license is
playing with the health and the re
ligious life of their daughters, Is
hard to understand.
A careful consideration of sug
gestions of this nature may help
to stem the time of the evil that
has given mucin concern to social
workers juvenile delinquency and
enable our schools to accomplish
their work with greater assurance
of permanont results.

FOR WOMAN'S EYE.
Women may Indulge in any fancy
they choose for their negligees.
For tho less elaborate suits
cheviots and twills and gabardine
and homespuns are all in evidence.
Judging from what we know so
far of next winter's fashions, there
are to be a good many coats with
detachable capes.
Colors may provide a wearer hap
piness or depression which ex
plains why a women often will cling
to an old dres3 and lot the now
ono hang in tho closet.
Tho great point about color study
Is to apply it to suit your awn
individuality. In buying, ask your
self not whether it is tho newest
color out, but whethor it is the most
becoming color for you.
For a girl or women on a limited
dress expenditure there, is over tho
good, old reliable bluo; always fash
ionable and universally kind to both
figure and complexion. Unlike black,
it adds no yeaTa to a woman's face.
Suits were never so expensive.
Neither perhaps wero they ever so
elaborate. Tho favored materials
for tho dressier models are duvetyn
and velvet. Brown, black, dark
green, and beige are all good in
these.
