Evils of Modern Life, Deceit and Dis
honesty, Due to Parents' Tyrannous
Training of Children.
"Honor your father and your mother this
has been the Injunction that parents have too
often and too long held as a threat over their
offspring. Honor your children such a re
versal of tho Fourth Commandment observed
by parents would do more good In the world,
In my opinion, than a tyrranlzlng assertion ot
parental authority. It Is well for children to
honor their parents when they deserve such
honor. But parents should first seek to merit
this by their treatment of their children. We
may talk about the evils of modern life, of
deceit nnd dishonesty in business, politics and
the domestic relations; but these evils can't bo
eradicated until the source Is removed, and
tho source Is In tho home. Men aro what their
parents have made them. Cowardice, treachery
and dishonesty In life Invariably develop from
seed sown in the child life."
Miss Helen Ware, who has distinguished
herself by her characterizations In dramas of
modern life, was sitting in the reception room
of her euito in the Vendlg last evening. Miss
Ware had been discussing the problems of
modern life as affording material for drama,
and the conversation turned from marriage to
the relation of parent and child. Miss Ware,
whose personality Is as magnetic as It li em
phatic, if trenchantly direct In her opinions.
Life, to Miss Ware, Ih a serious thing.
"In life," she declared, "the absolutely
greatest things are truth and Justice. All our
evils, all our problems, exist In tho lack of
truth und Justice. To get down to funda
mentals, thl3 applies to business, politics, tho
relations of men and women, the Inequalities,
oppressions and wrongs of our social and
economic life. Ajid to get to the cause of
untruth, injustice, dishonesty, lying and deceit
we must go right to the home where the child
is reared. 'Spare tho rod and spoil uhe child'
Is the very command which has spoiled char
acter und spoiled life. If we want to correct
abuso wo must coriect the cause, and wo must,
therefore, correct parents.
"Fear 13 the fundamental evil, the original
sin, in human life. Now children aro taught
to fear their parents, and later to fear their
teachers. Fear makes cowards. Punishment
Is tho cause of mlfcdolng and crime. If, in
steud of threatening children, parents encour
aged them aluuys to tell the truth without
fear of punishment there would be less wrong
doing In the world toduy. If patents honored
their children there would be mure honor
among men.
"What Is the condition in the average home?
A child is restricted by rigid rules. It is trained
to see only the parents' point of view. The
father und mother never consider the child's
point of view. The child, in playing, acci
dentally breaks a vato, or has iome mishap.
It is then scolded or Housed. The result la
that tho child. Instead of admitting trivial
nilMlomgs, begins to llo. it blames whatever
accidents happen on tho servant, tho dog or
tho cat. That child continues to lie through
life, into the plnstic iMtuio of th,. imn,t...
being tho element of fear has been implanted.
.." .. ear. qeceit and cowardice. All u,o
later kindnesses of Ufe m not ehmlnate that

A child should never be punished. I would
never scold u child. -.Vow if you don't stop
that I'll tpank you-' how often do we
hear this? A child should never bo threatened
A child should never be Malted with outbursts
of temper. Scolded and whlptted. ns tho aver,

"Refouns aro not made spontaneously or

them to be. The great reform to bo uccon,.
