norval where these organizations flourish there ia no finer trainihg for our young people and those adults who give so freely of their time and talent are to be commended the value of their work is noted in the following article which appeared in a recent edition of the london free press colonel wallace bunton of toronto territorial prison officer of the salvation army declares that the answer to the teenage crime problem does not lie in psychiatry or psychology but in the home in the school and in the church during an interview in lon don this experienced and understanding officer asser ted that it is too late to try to control children after they are fifteen or sixteen the needed training must be given when they are much younger to call upon the use of psychiatry and psychology by the time the children are teenage and already delinquents is to put the cart before the horse in the same way to send a boy to a reformatory or a training school at that age to teach them a trade is useless this is basic training which should have been supplied much earlier it all comes back to the home which is a city within a city a country within a coun try a world within a world an appropriate description declaring that the north american educational system was the best in the world nevertheless he advocated a survey of all schools teaching sixteenyearolds with a view to discover which pupils have the quality of mind fopermit them to follow successful professional car eers and those lacking such mind quality should be taught trades it might be an excellent plan but the tank of saying who is to be in the professions and who ia to have a trade would be a most unpalatable duty it was good to hear colonel bunton apeak so high ly of the boy scout movement in all his long experi ence he said he had only met two jail inmates who hatt been boy scouts the scout movement he de clared was an example to all other groups of this kind and if they have been able as they have to prevent juvenile delinquency and teenage crime other groups could do it in this connection the scout organization is finding some difficulty in having an adequate supply of leaders the scout ethics and training are one of our most potent defences against communism and it is to be hoped that leaders will be available in the future as they have been in the past no doubt as colonel bunton says the remedy for these juvenile errors lies in the home in the school and in the church the crux of the problem however is how to bring about the necessary changes in these three units ao that the training of very young children will be supplied it is an old but true axiom that example is better than precept that it is hotter toshow the child by ones own lite how to behave than by preaching and speaking and ordering which means that the par ent the teacher and the priest must exemplify the good life at all times an imposing moral duty to set before them the problem of teenage crime is a moral problem page 8 ha center v m jekjuixa a c l m t i northern isms timislj jus dscwolsd tpeciout seta wka ihewer oad balk two osd moms i hom i svassset 1uhiivuitta mw rede koew hsw yeefca peenlsf

may be applied to the children they still may have a great deal of value as applied to all aduts whose duties include the train ing of the young mind whats new this week another new column is added to
