It must seem to highway officials, who are -constantly deluged with -complaints, that the public is unwilling to suffer even the slightest inconvenience in order to have great inconveniences 'abolished and. permanent improvements made. Tho pub.Iic constantly complains, about the condition of a main road and then complain even more violently because of a detour while the main road is being improved. Another way in which the unreasonableness of the motorist manifested is his utter impatience when halted by traffic signals or traffic congestion. He raised a cry about the danger of traffic before signals were installed and now frets when there is a moment's delay for the sake of safety.

He has forgotten the day when most roads were one- way roads, most of the time blocked by hay wagons moving at a snail's pace, and when most roads were broken by bottomless mud holes. It has been but a few years ago when no motorist expected to drive many miles without the occasional help of a team to get him through mud and Comment From Other Papers There are still some old-fashioned business men who think H'SJ better to make few sales nt high prices than many at low Journal.

"Back to the Home" is the arresting title of a recent volume on children and their proper, education.

Sociologists and psychologists have rediscovered the great moral importance of the home as an institution. This is a decided, reaction against certain tendencies toward specializa tion and toward "expert" care and rearing of children. Teachers and experts can do much for children, but parents and the home, it is now recognized can do even more. Indeed, there is no substitute for their personal contribution to the well- balanced development of children. But what is the home? The answer to that question is not as obvious as may appear at first sight.

Parents alone do not make a true 17 VERY day the newspapers tell of tragedies that have 'resulted from the unsuccessful 'efforts of persons who have tried gather riches by short-cut methods.

Parents today make more sacrifices for their children than ever before. They may even devote more anxious thought than was ever devoted to the physical, mental and moral training of their children, and yet the net result may be and often fs, disappointing. Why? Because, some thinkers assert, parental effort must be supplemented by the constant, subtle, indirect influence of the home as a distinct institution.

That is, the home is a moral as well as a physical entity To live in a real home to study, rest and amuse oneself at home, to be fond of certain rooms, bookshelves pictures, furniture, and to entertain friends and discuss matters of. cur rent interest during or after dinner is to be the recipiant of all manne of impressions and stimuli that mole character and socialize the Individ ithe market and i losing, stole from firm.

Much of the crime and tress existing in this country. today may attributed the unwillingness of many to accumulate, wealth through, the slow, steady processes of thrift.

It was for more ual. Perhaps the influence of the home as a separate social institution has not been stressed sufficiently in late years, although much has been said about the disappearance of the home in the cities and its replacement by small flats and apartments in which neither parents nor children spend of their leisure hours. "Back to the Home" is a significant slogan. Parents as well as children need the old-fashioned, comfortable, individualized Chicago Daily News.
