The regular meeting of theyWest Side Parent-Teacher Association was held at (he West Side school Tuesday. Solos by Mrs. Wolf and Miss Frances Hamlin opened and closed the meet ing. A very interesting discussion on the social life of the children was quite generally entered into. It was suggested that, inasmuch as many children do not have homes suitable to entertain their friends in, some place should be provided where this could be done. There were thre objections cited to the present method of conducting parties lor children. One, and the chief one, seemed to be the late hours which are kept, which not only mili tate against the he-.1th of the child, but utterly unfit him for his school work. Nine or 10 o'clock at the lat est was recommended, and the parties should be restricted to Friday and Saturday nights. Ths second bjeo tion was that they are not properly chaperoned, and in most cases not chaperoned at all. The' chaperones should not be young girls, but the mothers of the :hildren. Several ladies thought that boys and girls of fifteen or sixteen are not old enough and have not enough dignity and cqmmon sense to associate together, and that parties of each sex should be held separately. It is to be expected that the young people will make vigorous objections to these regulations, but all sensible parents, who really have the good of their 'children at heart, will en force them. That we have been, as a peopie, too lax and too indulgent with our children, there is no room for doubt, and we are reaping the re sults of it tn increase of idleness and incapacity and consequent poverty and crime. It is time we called a halt. A committee of five was appointed by the president to draft resolutions which should embody the measures here mentioned. airs.
