They neutralize much of the good teaching that Lila received from her English teachers. So take the test below and see if you can pick out the error in each line. Then send for the booklet and use it at home to eliminate your child's mistakes in speech. Uy - Geroge W. C"1 By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE D-508: Lila G., aged 5, is a kindergartener. "Dr. Crane," her teacher began, "Lila uses very vile language. "She will employ profanity and apparently not even realize that she is violating good taste. "And she tells tales about her parents that they may not believe are being broadcast to all the youngsters in my class. "Why don't parents realize that we kindergarten teachers get uncensored views of what they are doing in their own homes?" I M I C CONRADPS TEST Parents should realize that they have a serious job of teaching their youngsters correct speech .and proper social habits. But children imitate their human surroundings. Conradi, a famous Scientist, found that English sparrows would even mimic canaries, if reared by canaries. For example, Conradi took sparrow eggs and placed them in the nests of canaries. ; When these eggs hatched, the canary mothers looked after "^the young sparrows, apparently not realizing that their awkward fledglings were "foster" children. Remember, the young sparrows never saw or heard their own kind! The only bird sounds they experienced were the songs of canaries. When the sparrows were 3 months old, they began to trill, like their canary foster parents. "None,", said Conradi, "ever had the characteristic call note of the sparrow species but by and by adopted those of the canary." If raucous sparrows can learn to . sing and trill like canaries, just iifiagine how much more expertly smart human tots can mimic the speech and social outlook of their parents! It now costs an average of $500 per year per child to give him public schooling. Taxes are constantly rising to meet this charge, which doesn't include the costs of the school buses or the buildings! Yet many parents fail to cooperate with the English teachers! The latter diligently try TO give their pupils correct language. But as soon as those youngsters arrive home, they hear slang, vulgarity, profanity and all the most common errors in English. If a child spends 50 minutes in an English class, but is with his parents for 10 waking hours, just think of the havoc those parents can produce! "It ain't me," they can say or, "Her and I went to town." "Raise up the window." "Wait on me at the corner." "She was dark complected." "Who did they elect queen?" "His noise aggravated(me." "It was the consensus of opinion." Those are just a few of the common errors that parents keep indelibly impressing on their children's ears, but which English teachers try to correct! Like Conradi's sparrows, however, the children tend to imitate the home speech, as well as sex attitudes, politics and moral vs. immoral outlooks of their parents. So send for my booklet on "How to Raise Your Child's School Marks," (containing the most common errors in English), enclosing a long stamped, return envelope, plus 20 cents. (Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper,enclosing a long stamped, addressed envelope and 20 cents to cover typing and printing cosj you send for one ©Plus booklets.)
