“he assisted on the committee in
charge of the Jewish Women's
luncheon yesterday. Mrs. J. H.
Slomnn was the able head.
sumo being true of both boys and
girls.
"Both types. the excessive ener-
getic and the 'tired out' are indicative
of weakness and an unbalanced con-
dition.
Symptoms. _
"The mental attitude is paradox-
ical.
slve, sometimes uncertain. The boy
will appear cocky, won't take ad-
vice, will be boastful and obstinate.
There will be periods of moodiness
and of great i-xultation also."
Music, Mrs. Krupp said. often pro-
vides an outlet for the emotions of
this period. Again, nature study.
solitary walks or star gazing may an-
swer the problem. There will be no
humor at this ago. very little at any
rate.
Dual Nature.
A sort. of dual nature exists in
boys and girls during the adoles.
cent period. according to Mrs.
Krupp who cited an instance of two
boys who had gone to see one of the
vilest plays shown in a. certain city.
Fire broke out. and these same
boys who had taken such pleasure
in the vile show. gave their lives
to save the women and children in
the audience.
“During this age. the boys and
girls commence to see one another
in a different light." said the speak-
er. "The boy will brush his hair
and clean his teeth without being
told. the girl commences to take a
real pride in her personal appear-
ance.”
Fluctuating ideals. desire for
gang rule. complete disregard for or
else abject slavishness to. social
rules and regulat‘ons. desire for ap-
proval especially for that of com-
panlons, a. natural gregariousness
and the awakening of religious in.
stincts. all these have a place in the
adolescent age. .
"The present generation." said
Mrs. Krupp in closing." is no differ-
ent from the generation of our
grandmothers. Environment how~
ever. is different, and the life today
is filled with many pitfalls.
"Moving pictures. good and bad.
masses of literature of all kinds
available for the youth of today.
the great moral unrest. the chang-
ing standards. political upheavals—-
what an environment! Not so good
ideals of the
adolscent age. ’
“However. the. trouble can
great measure be remedied by the
home. the right. kind of home.
Where there is both tolerance and
understanding. . ,
“Keep your children home, and
see that you stay homo yourself!"
'5 .‘l rs. Cobb.
“The time will yet come when the
inferiority complex of the Jew to.
wards the Gentile and of the Gen-
tile towards the Jew will have en-
tirely disappeared." said Mrs. Mar-
garet A. Cobb of \Vestport in speak-
ing on “The inferiority Complex of
the Jewish Race" yesterday.
Mrs. Cobb commenced her talk by
giving a little chapter from her own
biography, which incidentally. illus-
trated her "inferiority complex"
theme.
She told of her early education in
Germany in a girls' boarding school.
This school was filled with girls of
all nationalities, which in c l u d c d
quite a number of Jewish girls.
0 9 day she came upon a group
of t 10111 all in tears. Upon inquiring
the cause of their grief. she dis-
covered that the headmistress had
just announced that no Jewish holl-
days could be kept in the schools.
The Catholics kept theirs. the Eng-
lish theirs, but the rule had been
made against the Jews. Mrs. Cobb.
then a young girl full 'of ideas and
ideals ended by going to the Rabbi
and informing him that he should
see to it. the holidays were kept. The
result was the headmistress was
forced to upoiOgizo to the Rabbi. the
Jewish girls were given their hell-
days and Mrs. Cobb Was ex‘bellcd for
her trouble.
“What is the inferiority complex
of the Jew towards the Gentile and
the Gentile towards the Jew?" she
asked. The Gentile feels that per-
haps the Jew is smarter. quicker.
brighter than he and he is constant-
ly on the alert. The Jew. on the
other hand. harbors towards the
Gentile the social inferiority com-
plex born of long years of suffering
and suppression." .

Margaret Brendilnger will give is re-
port on the recent educational con-

Miss Mabel Thomas of tho Thom-

"World's worst. play." She added
that the reason for its success was
just "it gives the people what they
want." If it a play portraying the
peculiarities of both the Cohens and
the Kelleys and showing how each
family is “queer" in some respects.
and revealing that a little tolerance
overcomes all obstacles and that af-
ter all. we are all the same under-
neath.
“Everyone is interested to see. how
these Cohens and Kellys get along."
said Mrs. Cobb. ”It is a play which
should be duplicated all over the
country in real life. We should en-
courage the friendship of our neigh-
bors even in ugh they seem 'qucsr'.
be tolerant what we feel are their
shortcomings, and try to understand
them.
In the children of today. the men
and women of tomorrow. Mrs. Cobb,
sees the banishment of the inferior-,
ity complex in both the Jew and
the Gentile.
"Everything depends on the train.
ing we give our children now," she
said. "Do not refer to your foreign
neighbors in dcprecatory terms. or
lake fun ,of their peculiarities and
your children won't either. As we
teach. so will our children learn."
