punishment should fit the crime the guilty should be tortured as was the small child Sometimes the story of mal treatment takes another vein It is the report of a court case in which a young man has been convicted of a criminal offense The maltreatment is not physical as in the first instance but is present in the environment in which he lived Deprived of Jove and security the birth rights of every child by being born in a home torn by domestic strife broken by divorce separ ation or desertion of one parent or raised in an atmosphere of and debauchery his feet were directed to the path of crime as surely as if he had been apprenticed to such an occupa tion These are the exceptions If they werent they would not be considered newsworthy They wouldnt receive the sensational treatment employed by certain newspapers However the responsibilities of parenthood rest heavily with all of us We find it difficult to maintain a balance within our own lives as adults in a world of rush and

our children in the art of happy living Can we parents guide them so that they In turn when they reach adulthood will he welladjusted responsible in dividuals Before we de fend ourselves against the charges of physical maltreat ment before we extricate our selves from unhealthy environ mental circumstances we must honestly evaluate our positive contributions It Is not enough to say We would never

Jan when the String Quartette re visited the members of the New market Canadian Concert Assoc iation in the high school audi torium 1 From the first stirring note of the Schubert March to the last puckish note of the last encore there was the wonderful artistic giving of the artists and the tense delighted receiving of the audience To me and to many others it was like the spell cast by good fairies in the old fairy tales when everything comes exactly right at the right time During the Brahms Quartette in A minor there was a stillness that could be felt We felt that for once they had shared a quiet when the dropping of a pin would have been heard What a thing of gorgeous tone color this quartette Is Marcus and Eugene Hudson to whom we were talking after wards at Mr and Mrs Eves home told us much of what it meant to the players It is com posed of Adagio Minuet and Finale and they are so many pictures One feels the echoing of the melody from instrument to in strument like the reflection of tall trees in water and the re currence of theme and inversion as the music climbs or descends In the minuet a change from the usual threequarter tempo to twofour and back again is odd disturbing and fascinating Those two artists and Mr Tobias agreed that the receptivity of the Newmarket audience enabled them to put everything they had into its interpretation They say that the warmth reached across to them on the stage and made playing a joy I say cheers for Newmarket for that was a very real compliment The Serenade and the Farmer and His Wife were de lightful Mr said that Leo Smith in the latter number I j m the rest sparkled and laughed poor mice squeaked and the pizzicato note flew around like motes in the sun I was greatly touched and when Mr with tto mess and courtesy aft great artists told me that he played the encore Loch Lomond for me and Alma Stephens for I had said in my a It touched us both And what a comedian as well as a artist Maurice We saw the three blind and all the tragedy It Is a great tribute to the ar tistry of this quartette one can say they held thetr audience spellbound Meeting them after wards at Mr and Eves home made one feel that tttusk Is the foundation stone of their lives an exacting mistress but a marvellous one We can only hope to hear them soon again We did hear them on the radio on Sunday which Is something but not like seeing as well as hearing Next week On the Continent and Ross Casement nil of Rich- mond Hill Don Longford Paul vm im bit Dolan Roches Point and Lois Toronto Mr A Tod of Cow rie Scotland arrived on

her parents Mr and Mrs Olson and Jean Olson Use Era and Express CLASSIFIEDS The Mozart Quartette No 2 consisting of Adagio and was an early thing and In addition to its musical loveliness gave us further op portunity to match the exquisite response of instrument to in strument In tone and color the artistry displayed in Interpreta tion and the brilliance and pur ity of technical manipulation On one side of me sat Hilda and Archie on the other Alma Stephens They as well as I were drinking in everything they could of their particular instru ment Alma the cello and the rest of us the violin and viola my three side partners should have changed places for their eyes In danger of becoming permanently crossed in looking different sides with tonal glances the other way The last group Old Folks at Home Pizzicato Polka Three Blind Mice and Fiddle Fuddle were fun At least we must ex Old Folks at Home which was played with a pathos that went down Into our hearts But All the members of New
