Our kids can be depended on to behave well at all times because that's the way we raised them.--A Proud Papa Dear Proud: Congratulations, pa. You do have a point. And now, we shall hear from an undertaker who lives in Bay City, Mich, Dear Ann Landers: I read with interest a recent letter about young children being brought to funerals. Perhaps you would like to know the gen- eral feeling of funeral home em- ployees. We do not like to have clfl- dren under eight years of age come to the funeral home. In- variably, they cause a disturb- ance at a time when peace and quiet are of the utmost impor- tance. Young children do not understand what is going on. It is natural for them to be inquisi- tive, but their shouting of ques- tions and climbing on the cask- ets in the selection room are hard on the bereaved. We ask parents to discipline their children until we are blue in the face, but it goes in one ear and out the other. I hope the millions of people who read your column will take note of this and learn from it. You would earn the grateful thanks of every undertaker in the coun- try.--W.M.H, Dear W.M.H.: Here's the let- ter and I hope it helps. And it is nice for me to get a smile from the members of your pro- fession, for a change.

On Family Life MONTREAL (CP)--The fam- ily unit, whose rapid post-war transition has been alternately described as breakdown and evolution, is the subject of in- tensive study at a forthcoming convention. The International Union of Family Organizations, in its 20th year of research into fam- ily problems, 'holds its first North American conference at Quebec City Aug. 27 to Sept. 2, to examine the social and eco- nomic issues facing the newly- created family in a changing world. Some of the aspects of family life to be discussed are: legis- lation relating to foundation of new families; such as the re- rocal duties of husband and fe; living standards and hous- and credit facilities, and the le played by new families in social, political and cultural life. Delegates are working on an- swers to such questions as: Do With gay colors and simple stitches you can eas- ily crochet attractive bath- room accessories for the bride.

MYERS, PhD If you were an editor of a children's magazine as I have been for many years, and se- lected for publication stories and verses sent in by children, you would be distressed at the number of children who plagi- arize, who send in as their own what they had copied. Your dis- couragement would be highest if you failed to discover that the child had plagiarized and printed his offering over his name as his own. After it had appeared in print you would receive scores of let- ters from children telling you it was plagiarized and where they had read it and who' the real author was. In their letters, they might ask why you had not known it was plagiarized. A few would express belief that. you, as editor, tried on purpose to deceive them. When the name and address of the child is printed at the end of the stolen item, as is the custom of a children's mag- azine I know best, the offending child may receive scores of let- ters from other children scold- ing and shaming him. Their sense of rightness has been hurt, and you and I are glad it has been. , You also would be saddened over the number of children whose plagiarism: you discov- ered on time, discovered out of your memory or after searching many places to see if it had written by another person. DECEIVING OTHERS Many Children's Plagiarisms Dismays Magazine Editors from a dozen or more children Robert Louis Stevenson's The Cow with a note from his teacher or parent saying it was the child's own--sometimes with the added statement, 'Isn't it a. remarkable creation!' We can't be sure the parent or teacher tried to help the child deceive. She may never have heard or read that poem herself, or taken the trouble to ascertain its val- idity. We parents and teachers surely want to encourage chil- dren to write creatively. Other children like to read their cre- ations, Many teachers wisely spend periods with elementary school children stimulating them in creative writing. When a child writes some- thing in class the teacher nat- urally supposes it must be this child's very own. Yet this child may have read or heard a story or poem somewhere and re- membered it and liked it so much as to believe it is his own. At best, we can't always he sure, One editor hit on the idea of having the child enclose a note from his parent or teacher with the assurance that the child had never read, heard or seen thé story or poem elsewhere. Even this precaution does not always work, Here I would like to urge teachers to remind children often of the nature and serious- ness of plagiarism. At home and at school, let us exercise the child in remember- ing the titles and authors, of what we read to him and what You would be discouraged that so many children have not learned that what a person has really written and published is precious to him, that so many children have failed to learn that when they copy and send to an editor as their own what somebody else had written they are stealing. Besides they are deceiving all who might read what they copied. : If you were an editor you might, as most editors do, re- quire the child submitting a story or poem as his own, to enclose a note from his teacher or parent stating it was the child's very own. But the per- son writing his note may r\t care or really know.
