"At home," she explained, "the an- nouncer just tells you quietly what has happened, and it's done, Here it's thrust on you with full force, like a storm coming up. I miss the plays too, and of course I can't en- oy the newspapers yet. I don't ow what they're talking about."

A recent announcement by the ministry of education marks an important step in making boarding educa- tion available to all classes, Under the Education Act of 1944 the duty is laid on local ed- ucation authorities of seeing that boarding - education 1s available to all children for whom, in the opinion of the parents and the authorities, it is desirable, The ministry, in a recent circular, says that as building facilities and other circumstances allow, boarding education will be great- ly extended.

We ac- knowledge there is something wrong with it: some say it is character that has broken down; others say it is lack of a sense of responsibil- ity and duty; still others blame it on modern woman, alcohol, lack of religion, war. Whatever it is, we do know that something must be done about saving the family, a necessary unit in our society. An article by Della D. Cyrus in the November Atlantic suggests an interesting solution which reminds us of Sir Thomas More's Utopia but is more practicable. In these days when so many are planning future homes and residential subdivisions, we think it worthwhile to pass Mrs. Cyrus' ideas along. You may not agree with them all, but they are worth thinking about. Before dealing with her remedy, let us introduce this modern dream- er or thinker to you. She is a uni- versity woman, an experienced social worker in family welfare work, the wife of a Unitarian min- ister and the mother of two chil- dren. Effective Community Living Family living should prepare for effective community living, Mrs. Cyrus believes, and so she proposes families grouping themselves into small communities to meet common problems, They unitedly solve the problems of child care, houseclean- ing, cooking and recreation, : Hopses would be grouped around parks with no traffic passing in front of the houses. Such a group of families would establish a child centre in the park with supervision for children of all ages, provision for outdoor and indoor recreation, for companionship with ofher chil- dren, In this day of small families, the question of companionship for yo! children would thus be solved, In a scheme like this, many of the mothers, with or without training, would consequently be able to serve. Mrs, Cyrus meets the objection that jn this plan mothers would be shifping their responsibilities upon fhe' community. No, replies she, they d simply be pooling it, just mukifig all children the responsibil- ity of all parents. One boon would be that many a mother, now tiéd at home by young children, would get some leisure for a life of her own, but more of that further on. Co-operative Housecleaning The co-operative house-cleaning plan sounds good. Commercial com= panies already are doing this busi- ness and the community might es- tablish its own "to be carried on by people specially trained for the job, abolishing it forever as the lonely, unpaid, soapy preoccupation of some twenty-five million women (That's in the U.S.A, my friends)." A community would also have a co-operative kitchen and dining building but Mrs. Cyrus would allow meals to be delivered cooked to pri- vate homes if so desired. She would still sanction private kitchens for all who wanted to do their own cooking, but she believes that fam- ilies, especially the children, would like eating out because of the com- pany. This would mean, she holds, the "freeing of human bejngs for a life of meaning and hope." In other words, a woman who wants a career and a family, may have both! But this ideal community would also have a recreational centre for children and adults, a sitters bureau, a clinic and possibly a theatre, Because these community projects would belong to all, adoles- cents would find in them scope for their activities and energies. Many Jobs, Mrs, Cyrus suggests, might be the special responsibility of adoles= cents, for which they would be paid. Subsidizing the Weak She faces the question of poor communities, which, she admits, would need to be subsidized, but that wouldn't be an insuperable difficulty. She says: "As a nation we pay for what we think we have ,to have, whether it be battleships or war memorials or institutions for the insane; and if we decided we had to have a bétter kind of com- munity life, probably we could find a way to pay for that too." This plan for a community life has its difficulties, she admits, but she argues that "facts show that the family is failing on all sides be- cause it is trying to live on an ex- clusive diet of ingrown emotion with no real common life . . . What but a community can revitalize and reunite the family for a common goal? Only this time the goal of the family will not be to protect itself against the world, but rather to enter into the world which is already on its d tep. Man has split the atom and" communicated with the moon. The time is now past due for him to try something more difficult and more important ~living with his fellow man." King St. S.S.

CULTIVATING HEALTH True health, say the authori- ties, means more than mere ab- sence of disease, It implies pep, a feeling of well-being and alert- ness of mind and body, The De- partment of National Health and Welfare declares that the first law of health-keeping is preven- tion -- immunization and protec- tion.
