Editorial.
Editorial. Mr. Masierman, the CHancellor of the Exchequer's lieutenant at the Treasury, is a brilliant speaker and writer. Upon his shoulder the administrative details of the Insurance Act has fallen, and he is the best authority of the day upon the initial working of the Act. In his figures in illustration, lie said that many medical men were in receipt now of twice as much as they possessed before the Act was passed. He i>ointed out that 18,0(10 doctors were receiving nine shillings where tliey had previously received four shillings. If there were," he said, "some black sheep not giving what the patients wore entitled to receive, he would very soon see that these doctors no longer gave service under the Act." Dealing with certain prophesies as to the working of the Act, he claimed that there had been an actual increase in the member- ship of friendly societies, and that one and three-quarter millions of money had already been paid to the doctors for medical benefits. Over two million pounds had been paid in sickness pay at the rate of £ 100,000 a week, and 350,000 had been born since last January with thirty shil- lings in their mouths. There were 7,000 persons in sanatoria. When these facts are understood, surely it is time for the rank and file of the democracy to realise this new era of social amelioration. The croakers still live with us. They are the selfish rich, and the privileged monopolists, who care nought for their fellows as long as they can flourish in superfluities. When we invoke the divine mandate, "Bear each other's burdens," they reply, "Rats," the answering argument of the fool and the knave. Sunday Schools are falling off in attend- ances. This fact must remain a serious consideration, and grave doubts exist as to whether we were doing the best for I the rising generation by making things ¡ easy, pleasant and agreeable. Eminent authorities in the Church attribute the falling off in Church attendance in a large degree to the fact, because of the plea- j sant, free and easy nature of children's services, the young people were losing the j spirit of awe and the fear of God. Laxity j of discipline meant looseness of life. The I gradual increase in State intervention has I resulted in the lessening of parental re- sponsibility. It has been said by the founders of the Child-Study Society, especially of parents of elementary school children, that the extension of educa- tional activities by the State tends to make parents shift their responsibility more and more from their own shoulders to those of the expert and the profes- sional. The home" is the best school if conducted on right lines. If the home and the public school understood each other better all would be well, but un- fortunately the home too often hampers and harasses the work of the school. Having failed to control the child in the home, the parental irritation is impatient and intolerant of control anywhere else. The '-go as you please" child early matures "rot." There should be more conference between parents and schools. A flippant young schoolmaster was once asked what kind of relations existed be- tween parents and staff, and he replied, with more vigour than accuracy, that the parents thought the masters brutes, and the masters thought the parents fools. The children would be gainers if these two supreme responsible authorities-the parents and teachers—understood each othei better. TV ant of a better relation- ship must produce the failure in child- training. There may be plenty of learning, but without good character training, it availeth little. Dr. Chavasse, Bishop of Liverpool, addressing a Sunday School Society this week, expressed serious anxiety about the present state of Eng- lish society, and especially about the con- dition of the younger people. Criminal statistics showed a large increase in juvenile offences, and the police reports pointed to the large number of young folk who paraded the streets after dark and indulged in horseplay. These young people stood on tie edge of a precipice, and too many of them fell over. Business men complained of the lack of responsi- bility shown by young people entering their offices, and their want of serious view of life. These declines show the neg- lect of character building. Character was mainly formed in the home. If well done here, the school equipment will be of the most fruitful kind. If, however, it were supplemented by the Church and the Sun- day School, experience and tradition give confidence that the youth would be on the main road to strong and influential citizenship. Without character in the units, the character of the nation will fail. What is needed, therefore, isethe reformation of the Sunday School and not its abolition. There is no end of meetings, ministerial and lay, to discuss: the great questions of social and religious welfare, but little that is practical ensues. The national outlook is dark and ominous, and will grow darker if this problem of the youth is neglected. It should be grappled with vigour, and acting with talking must be the way to reform and betterment.
"SHE DONE HER DUTY NOBLE."…
"SHE DONE HER DUTY NOBLE." A little girl sat in a doctor's office, waiting patiently until her mother's turn came to go to the dentist's chair. The room was filled with patients, for it was the common waiting-room tor four doctors. Evervone sat and watched the child, who smiled at each in turn, beginning at the r i the right and going around in a circle. She re- ceived some pleasant responses at first, but finally they grew scarce. Nothing daunted, she kept right on making grimaces, until her mother in exasperation said: "Julia, what are you doing?" "Don't I hare to, mother?" And the little maid pointed to a sign tacked up over the steno- grapher's desk: KEEP ON SMILING. —Lippincott't Magazim-
