CHILD GUIDANCE:- Acquaint Children With Freedoms By GARRY CLEVELAND MYERS, Ph.D. IN these days when so many people of the world don't enjoy such freedoms as are guaranteed to you and me, we parents and teachers should acquaint our . children with these freedoms. #' But we also should help our children see that with freedom 'goes responsibility. The trouble is that most of us adults take our freedoms for granted and are not always very sensitive to our re- sponsibilities. FREQUENT VIOLATION In recent months we have been amazed--or are we getting cal- * Joused?--at almost daily revela- tion in the public news that one or many persons in whom great responsibilities have been entrusted by those who voted for them, dir- ectly or indirectly, have net meas- ured up to these responsibilities and have violated their freedoms. The most frequent violation is their use of the influence of their position for personal gain by their friends, sometines by themselves. What should shock us most is that so many of these offenders, when confronted with their de- linquencies, insist that they have done no wrong, since they have not clearly violated a law. They seem to consider anything to be right that they can get away with. Of course, we can have more laws, but laws can't make people really honest. PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION Perhaps this widespread appal- ling attitude is a natural outgrowth of a philosophy of education which has prevailed for a good many years--that there are no eternal principles of right or wrong but that right or wrong is a relative matter in terms of the "immedi- ate situation." How naterally and easily this can be interpreted and applied to mean that anything is right that you can get away with. Many fine teachers indoctrinated with this theory naturally suppose they could not teach their children ¢ practical principles of right and "wrong, as they would not be able to make clear the line between "what is right and what is wrong in the thousands of situations the "children might face. RIGHT AND WRONG These teachers have also been saturated with the warning that "you can't teach character with words." So the teacher, wishing to be up-to-the-minute in modern educational theory and practice, tries to avoid talking with her children about right and wrong except in certain situations which arise in the classroom or on the school premises. Fortunately, some teachers have the moral courage to stop following the bellwethers and to use their common sense in leading their children to see that this is right or that is wrong, whether it hap- pens at school, at home or any place else; whather it happens now or might happen years hence. And more and more often these teach- ers are being backed up by their school principal, supervisor or superintendent. Let's pray for more such teachers. Hollywood Highlights Hollywood (AP) -- Marilyn Mon- roe, the atomic blond, is the No. 1 cheesecake gal of Hollywood. She occupies the hallowed position held previously by Jane Russell, Rita Hayworth and Betty Grable. Aside from her obvious attri- butes, Marilyn is a serious gal who reads philosophy as well as movie magazines. Asked if leg art inter- fered with her dramatic ambitions, she said: "I think cheesecake helps call attention to you. Then you can fol- low through and prove yourself." PAYS OFF After a year of minor roles, she is coming igto her own. In 'Clash by Night," she will get star billing along with Barbara Stanwyck, Paul Douglas and Robert Ryan. Unlike some gals with dramatic to cheesecake. In fact, she was disappointed when a national mag- azine ran a story about her and featured a photo of her in a high- necked evening gown.

In the last few years, fortune has smiled on us; and we are grateful for it, and eager to show our appreciation of our bless- ings by doing what good we can. However, things weren't always so bright for us. Our income after marriage al- ways was higher than average; but in the uphill years it didn't permit us to maintain the standard of living in which we were reared. And because I couldn't keep pace socially, I was dropped or snubbed by old friends and acquaintances, even relatives; who had a dozen ways of showing me I no longer belonged. I didn't so much mind the lack of money, but a few years after marriage I was virtually friendless, and the cold attitude of so many chilled me to the bone. Fortunately those were my busy years. Eventually the shock eased; but we were glad to get back to our almost forgotten standards of plenty, and it was a joy to be able to give our children more advant- ages. One by one, we found rela- tives and fair weather friends wel- coming us back to the fold; and the worst- offenders in past years are most effusive now. At first we laughed together at the old hypo- crites. Perhaps we should be de- lighted, but we're not. I am reluctant to be taken up again by those who barred us socially years ago. I no longer. care for them. Stan says, however, "People are like that; that's the world." And while he shares my feelings, he believes the lack of money would have forced us out of any similar group. Also he thinks it is to the children's bene- fit to be accepted again. If it is worldly to drop old friends in ad- versity, the policy was never fol- lowed by my parents. The needy were most warmly greeted; and hospitality and help was given them without thought of repay- ment. Give us the benefit of your wisdom and insight. Is Stan right? Am I very wrong? D. L. MAN'S ATTITUDE MORE WHOLESOME DEAR D. L.: Stan's attitude is larger than yours. It appraises and accepts the imperfections of hum- an nature, and goes on to make the best of things. In all probabil ity his rational realistic philosophy of life is chiefly responsibille for the latterday return of good fortune that you are enjoying. Now that you are riding the crest of prosperity again, it were dangerously nonconstructive to ex- plore old chapters of social rejec- tion and wretchedness, with mind attuned to vindictive sentiments. Alas, this is the way to plunge yourself to the depths again, as abruptly as you were dashed be- fore -- since the power of thinking, for good or ill, is dynamite in its effects upon the thinker's exper- ience. Your grudge-holding disposition towards fair weather friends of yesteryear, now flocking back to salute your success, indicates that you haven't grown much, if any, psychologically, in the uphill years of marriage and motherhood. Had you grown in wisdom and under- standing at a normal pace, or sufficiently to share Stan's com- fortably detached estimate of these social sycophants, their bootlicking attentions wouldn't disturb you. Why? Because you would have ac- | MARY HAWORTH'S MAIL: Resents Fair-Weather Friends DEAR MARY HAWORTH: I amand interests, in the period of their: neglect, -- and thus be genuinely sourceful, cooperative or flexible indifferent to their snob yalues and vagaries. HER PERSONALITY MAY LACK APPEAL You speak as if there were only one social group, namely, that into which you were born. When elbowed out of it for lack of money to live expensively, you felt as lost as a soul in limbo, -- which sug- gests that you aren't a very re- sourceful, co-operative or flexible neighbor in your own right. In your own way, you were as much of a material snob as those who let you down, just as narrowly "exclusive" in your judgments of "worth", -- else you yould have found thoroughly nice, Batisfactory friends in the humbler walks of life, during your lengthy sojourn there. Stan's idea that the children will benefit by your return, as a family unit, to the background circles that once dismissed you, indicates that no alternative opportunities exist, for social affiliations, so far as he knows. Here again is evidence that you aren't very magnetic or enterprising in the social arena. And it may be -- awful thought! -- that people dropped you, when times were hard, as much because you were a bore, as because your purse was flat. In any case, my advice is to suit your present be- haviour to Stan's philosophy, and let bygones be bygones, absolutely.

(AP) -- Gambi, a gum-chewing deer, has disappeared, apparently the victim of foul play, and the whole com- munity is up in arms. Bambi has been a member of the Earl Woodworth family for 17 months, ever since he was found Lv ihe woods a few hours after his irth, slept in the Woodworth barn, played with the woodworth dogs and three children, accompanied the Woodworths in their car. He chewed gum like a nervous stenographer. . Yesterday, Bambi was gone -- | with a trail of blood leading from the barn to a road 200 feet away. The earth was roughed up as though Bambi had put up .a fight. Woodworth has offered a, reward. "We never thought anybody would be so low. They've broken my children's hearts."
