a 3 ii“ Some one who saw the incident, and happened to know the car. called up the. house of the owners. in the belief that they would consider it a favor to be informed of such reckless driv- ing at this important corner. The person who answered the phone. on the other hand, was extremely unconcerned, and mere- ly said that the children had no business to be on the crossing. The incident speaks for itself. Such an unpardonable atti- tude on the part of a person presumed to be civilized is hard to imagine. Are these the same people. we wonder, who talk largely. and give noisily and spectacularly to the cause of sweet charity. and yet assume an attitude of crass indifference to the lives of children. in their private transactions? It is greatly to be hoped that people of this caliber will not all be attracted to Highland Park as a place of residence. The fact that they may have money only serves to increase the odium oi t1 e.r niitlesirability. One day last week a high powered motor car whirled around the corner of Sheridan Road and Central Avenue at a very high rate of speed. narrowly escaping some children who were cross- ing the street at the time. The car was driven by a chauffeur and otherwise unoccupied. The newly created Park Board of this city, we are happy to observe, is turning its attention in this direction. Already they have had a hand in the flooding of the athletic field at Deerfield- Shields for a first-class skating pond, and are just completing a very fine toboggan slide on Fairview avenue. It is singular, but Highland Park with all its height, its hills and ravines, is surprisingly lacking in good coasting sites. The action of the Park Board in trying to promote winter sports in the community is highly commendable. Winter sports are a very great asset for any community. Only a few years ago people realized that, although a city might be lacking in rivers, in natural lakes or ponds, it was still a com- paratively simple matter to make a skating pond. This thing has been done with great success in Glencoe. also at the Lincoln School in Highland Park. -_~_v~â€"uuan\.\, . Mr. Hammond then attempts, in no unmistakable terms, to give some idea of the stage, in general from the standpoint of the young. Parents are possessed by an overweaning desire to sophisticate their children, to broaden their “education" and add something to their “culture," whatever that is. And in this so-called broadening quest. they run headlong on the theatres in a great city. There are also very many parents who have no very clear idea of just what constitutes the education of the young. Such parents are at the mercy of any one who happens to establish the precedent of sending their children to the theatre. They do not use judgment nor discrimination. They merely see others do it and they follow_ like sheep. In Mr. Hammond's article, he does not give advice in regard to the various plays which are now running in Chicago. but he does hazard this general warning: “If you care for your child‘s taste, keep him away from the theater except when he can see Shakespeare or ope Follies; and even then, you should be cau- tious.” “Every day, during the holiday time," he goes on to say, “I am asked, oddly enough, by anxious parents. to direct them in the way their offspring should go to the theatre. Are McIntyre and Heath moral and fit for viewing by the adolescent? Are there in ‘Civilian Clothes’ some vulgar threads? Is ‘Roxy’ a good girl? And does Nora Bayes afford a salutatory example? Are the undershirt proceedings in ‘Up in Mabel’s Room' whole- some for the cloistered subdebutante ?" Percy Hammond. in his fiippant though serious manner, attempts to waken mothers to a sense of their moral responsi- bility towards their children in the matter of theatre going. In The Tribune of January 4th. .he writes: “The clergy is again distressed at the sins which sit mocking in the plumage of the drama.” Inland u lehlnnd Park.
