Generally the group members were fair in their consideration of the problem, and con tended that youths should assume their respon sibility for any deviation from the path of right living. Two or three indicated they believed the parents should shoulder the blame. How ever, the final concensus was that the problem of solving juvenile delinquency should be at tacked in a co-operative spirit by both the parents, children and community. As in so many other problems, education seems to be the best method of solution. Child ren of today, largely through the carelessness and disinterest of their parents, have lost the faculty of entertaining tsemselves. Failing in this trait, they are forced to-seek entertainment yway from home, where they can sometimes easily slip into delinquency. Children continually ask to be entertained, without giving any thought to possibility of de veloping hobbies or other interesting means of gaining enjoyment through their own activities. Education of children to entertain themselves and education o f parents to co-operate with their children in finding self-made wholesome entertainment would be a great development in the juvenile delinquency problem.

Below is tile winning essny: "H ow I Can Make My Home a Safer Place.” The home Is a good place to begin a safety program. I f one learns and abides by safety rules ut home tie will surely be more thoughtful o f safety In public. A great hazard at any time is fire. Among the many warnings against possible fires in the home ure those mentioning matches. Matches are for the purpose of startmg a fire easily and should be taken care o f us such. Stoves should be given thought ful and oaroful treatment. Loose fuel for stoves provides easy prey for a possible stray flume to sturt a runaway fire. Any possibility of an explosion with an oil stove should be checked. Although this may not cause a 1 fire readily, It's certainly not a pleasant happening and may cause injury to some person. While talking about stoves It may be mentioned that if sm a ll! children are to be anywhere near | a stove they should be taught their danger before, not after, an accident occurs. Electricity brings a safety prob - 1 lem to the home. Faulty wiring needs to be corrected and all wires well insulated. Any electric! fences near u home where there are children should be far enough away so that children can 1* in structed where to play, without being crowded. Electrical appli ances should be placed away from positions where water can be touched while a hand is on an appliance. Certainly no person that has any thought of safety with elec tricity will ever put a coin in a fuse box. Where there are narrow halls and stairways, great caution should j be taken in keeping them clear, especially when lighting is not good. Children's toys are hazards l SENSATIONAL!
