i Five Racine Visitors Accept Invitation to Linger a While Since our children must live in a competitive world, we must them to compete, yet still keep them from becoming individuals dominated by the competitive spirit, the group of mothers in the discussion group at Family Service of Racine decided in their meeting following "The Inquiring Parent" interview over WRJN Tuesday. The interview, the thirteenth and last, in a series between Dr. Woodward, psychologist, and a parent, ij sponsored by the Racine Welfare Council, a red feather service, and the Wisconsin State Health Department. A new series broadcasts, locally written and locally produced, called Inquiring will begin next Tuesday morning at 9.45 over WRJN. Values Sorted Out.

In the discussion group, led by Mrs. Helen Renald, executive secretary of Family Service, the mothers decided that there are positive values and negative values of competition in childhood, and the problem is how to guide and control this competition. Positive values stacked up that children learn quicker and work harder, the high standards setby other children provide an incentive, and children find joy in their own achievement when it compares favorably with that of othel- children. On the negative side, the re-petted disappointments of the loser are defeating and a child often gives up completely, a child who consistently comes out second best in competition is inclined to compensate for failure in antisocial ways, and in competing a child frequently stoops to unfair means in order to win. Co-operation Urged.

Mothers were urged to emphasize improvement over the child's own record, to stress competition with children of a similar size, avoid setting too high standards for children, balance failure in one form of competition with praise for other, and to teach co-operation along with competition. One mother gave an example of the competitive spirit of her child who has recently insisted on always wearing a dress of many colors to summer play school. The mother learned that children are invited to play a certain group game by the colors of their dresses, and this child had figured out that she could be included in all the games if she could produce in her dress every color called for. All the mothers agreed that co operation is not a native endowment of the young child, but that with the clever handling by the mother can be built into a child's personality. One mother admitted helping her younger child to win childish competition within the family.

The older child seeing the joy the younger one expressed in winning, began to' take a little more joy in his young brother success.
