acton hut in many towns it is agreed by all that this late hour is not good for the chil dren in hrampton the curfew has been adopted and acton council is giving onie consideration to the question iarents should not however assume the attitude that it is the duty of public bodies to miike all the arrangements for safeguarding their children olie of the big reasons so many children are on the street at late hours is because too often the parents are not at home when they do come in from play if parents would assume the respoifsihilitv that is theirs it is doubtful if a curfew would be required those who have bad experiencee in maintaining law and order have found that all too often the mis- ihevious little boy who has not bad proper direction develops into the big had boy and failing application of corrective measures it is this type of lad who i ills our reformatories and becomes a charge of the country a little more cooperation of parents in the early stages with their children would help in building better canadian manhood and womanhood lnckingtliisitisbcttcr for- the l to step in early in giving what guidance is possible hut can never he the equal of that given by
