NAMES OPPORTUNITIES Parents, Teachers And Citi- zens Wave I>u*r N. OF CHILD MIND U. Professor Addresses Kindergarten College Emphasizing the greater responsibilty that modern conditions have thrown upon the home, Mrs. Maurice H. Lieber, 468 Ridge avenue, Winnetka, spoke on "The Changing World" before the sum- mer session of the National Kindergar- ten and Elementary college recently. Mrs. Lieber is the chairman of applied education in the Illinois Federation of "Woman's clubs and has been prominent in all sorts, of educational work for a number of years She is well known on the north shore, and especially in Win- netka, where she is the secretary of the board of education. For many years Mrs. Lieber has been brie of the out- standing leaders in the Parent-Teachers association movement. „., "I wonder," said Mrs. Lieber, "if we all realize just what kind of a changing world we are living in and what those Changes mean to us and portend for the future. We are expecting great things of the moving picture in the future, but the boys and girls in our homes have had scenes ^shown them in the picturesâ€" gambling scenes, home-breaking scenes, drinking scenesâ€"that twenty-five yeari ago I would no more have been allowed ^OuSfifeihan anything under the sun. And that means a new responsibility m the jome." '• Chance in Industry fi Mrs. Lieber stated that industrially great changes had come. "Twenty-five years ago as a teacher, \ heard nothing about child labor and an eight-hour law lor women." X "Some one has said that the greatest piing in this life is to be the right kind |©f a father or mother," she continued.* pAnd I am sure you will agree with me fijhat fathers and mothers should be liv- ing to make this world a better place Jor their children and grandchildren, •me one else said that the second" great 1 rjn--speatei*g-4>ef*>re^th^ sion of the National Kindergarten and Elementary college recently, Dr. George Herbert Betts of the department of re- ligious education of Northwestern um: versity gave an illuminating picture ot the child's moral and religious status. "We have before us a child," said Dr. Betts. "His present needs are very strong and pressing. We are likely to think of that child in the present, but he is much more a creature of the past. He has back of him all of this great stretch of barbarism and savagery out of which we have come. As Emerson says, "We are a part of all that we have met." All of us are a part of all that has come before. There is not any experience of a striking sort- that has not made its contribution to this single individual whom we go out to teach. When there are reactions in that child that you do not like, I beg of you to remember that perhaps not all of that conduct or behavior is to be assigned to that child as choice. His racial march is but speaking in his conduct. "I desire to ask you," said Dr. Betts, "what is moral for the child, what is right for the child, and what is wrong for the child. Can you remember back to the time when your notion of right was based upon what you were allowed to do? Some one has said that all children as they come into the world are pure and righteous, and only as they come into contact with the world do they be- come bad. Others have said that the child is the child of the devil, with a nature totally depraved. They are both away off. There is no child who is all J angel, and no child all devil. "The child comes into the world with his load of original tendencies that have developed through that past, being just what the past has made of him. Every tendency that the child brings with him Mrs. Stevens, New Ownfcr Of Linden Avenue Store The Van Arsdale Handy Shoppe, located** the Linden avenue terminal 'district/has changed hands. The new owner is Mrs. J. E. btevcns, 404^Greg- ory avenue, Wilmette, who managed the shop for Mr. Van Arsdale. In addition to continuing the line of goods already handled by the store, Mrs. Stevens will add a ready-to-wear department. She promises to under- sell downtown merchants and to make a practice of ordering any spe- cial articles that customers may de- sire. The Handy Shoppe, she says, will save Wilmette people money and a trip downtown. Mr. Van Arsdale has returned to the E. L. Mansure company of Chi â- fjiii,. f i nrnimrt;;, a TPsnnT^M*.
