Fathers Urged to Show
Interest In Daughters
Girl Scout Executive At Kiwanis Club Mentions Com-
panionship. Good Examples. and Proper Speech As
Matters For Dad To Be Careful About.
“Unfortunatsly we are all born
We can give
our children everything but ex-
perience." nid Mi- Olada Behrotth)’.
national executive of the Girl Scouts
of America. in starting an appeal to
the Kiwanis members who have
daughters. to guide their children
and exhibit more enthusiasm in
their activities. at yesterday‘s lunch-
eon of the club in Hotel Mahackemo.
To properly guide children it is‘
necessary to assure them good com-
panionship. Miss Behrettky pointed
out. Children involved in the youth
movements. she said, are not on-
rolled to learn how to chop wood or
to pitch tents. or even to learn how
to appear in theatricals the activity
with which she is most interested
as director of plays and pageants.
The Girl Scouts. the Campfire Girls
' and the Boy Scouts were named as
the three enduring “youth move-
ments." and the speaker recalled the
recent statement of a New York poo
lice commissioner that in all his
years of service he‘ had never heard
of a boy scent being arrested for
delinquency. ~
Must Be Kept Busy.
Children ‘must be given something
to do, the Kiwanians were told. The
establishment of the movement's
theatre and pageant efforts are not
designed to make actresses out of
the American business man's daugh-
ter but to give her something en-
nobling to do. The speaker observed
that rather than give an embryo ae-
tor a character part for the play’s
good the part is given the candidate
to influence the child by showing her
the way a well chosen character
should act, think and even walk. to
make the child representing the
princess in a play realise the way a
princess of fiction would conduct
herself. To pick up a newsboy
from the ranks of the boy scouts
for a part as a senator is to demon-
strate to him lust how' a senator
acts. or, as lilies Bchrottky observed.
as a senator "should” act.
Parental Interest Helps.
To emphasize her point. the
speaker mimicked the average is-
ther's display of lack of interest in
his child's report of activities and
then demanded: “You fathers must
show more enthusiasm in the doings
of your daughters." To grunt gruff-
ly gtnd continue reading the news-
paper when a girl appeals for sp-
provsl of good marks on her report
card is a mistake. A comment on
the subject indicates an interest that
is likely to be stimulating, she do-
clared.
The present taste in drama and
the motion picture is destroying to
‘he administ tion of proper ex-
perience to chi dren in graded doses.
Miss Schrottky declared. She ra-
counted her own experience in find-
ing the public library in a city of
(6.000 locked while the three motion
pictureltheatres, the only recourse to
the recreation-seeker. were all ex-
hibiting sex films of doubtful taste
as mental foodier the adolescent.
The spa ker were into har.talk
the answe to - those contributors
who profess disgust that the "youth
movements" are always petitioning
for funds. The Girl Scouts organiza-
tion. she said. has its laboratories to
prove recipes or experiments in the
proper education of the young.
Such experimentation, while bane-
iiciary in the long run. is costly. she
concluded.
Hits At Careless Speech.
In closing Miss Schrottky took oc-
casion to criticize the careless speech
of the average American, college-
bred or otherwise. Children are
naturally imitative and so are in-
clined to use the same slang their
fathers acquire. she said.
In bringing guests to a luncheon
that was to haie been "Daughters'
Day" the members of the club evi-
dently followed the thought that all
women are "somebody's daughters.
The girls and women invited were
daughters. pieces. friends. a stone.
grapher. and a sister-in-law; some
single and some introduced with the
"Mrs." prefixed to the name: a few
were more tots that sat on raised
seats with napkins wrapped around
their necks. and graded upward the
guests reached the comfortable side
of 30. With the guests and increased
number of members back in the city
following vacatibns. the attendance
proved the largest this season and
filled the dining room of the hotel
for the'club's first gathering there.

sided after a long vacation of lunch-
eons spent as a spectator, during

When you see a Norwalk sign in 'a

When you are at home do you feel the same way

TIRES are made in your city-«deserving of your
use not only forthat reason but because they
actually go farther, more safely, at less expense?
