Polo Hunt Club "Noah'I ' Ark" Playing at Pre-School ·Circle Community House Saturday Holds Opening "Noah's Ark" plays at Community Event Saturday - - - - - - - - - - · House Saturday, January 18, for its The ] anuary meeting of the LoganHoward Pre-School Ci'r cle held at tne Howard school ] anuary 8 was devoted to the discussion of two subjects important in the training of small chitdren, "Obedience" and ~'Rainy day amusements in the home." Mrs. Hodgkiss read a paper on "Obedience" in which she quoted many noted ~uthorities. A child fails to obey for various reasons: a lack of understanding of commands, concentration on play, fatique, emotional disturbances, such as jealousy, fear, or shyness. Obedience is more easily obtained by a pl...:asant attitude on the part of a parent as children will usually obey the parent they genuinely like. Montessori says "Let your words be numbered." Numerous commands and unreasonable ones make obedience difficult. Bribing a child soon results in the necessity of buying obedience on all occasions. Training in obedience should have for its object not our comfort or convenience but the child's ultimate good. Thorn says obedience is only a means through which se lf control, independence, and conformity arc attained, and, like t:espect, must be won not demanded. Punishment to be justifi~d must be for the purpose of preventing future disobedience, not a mere retribution for past misdeeds. General discussion followed, after which Mrs. Birong gave some helpful hints for keeping children amused on rainy days. To be happy a child must be kept busy. He enjoys helping with light tasks and should have nothing done for him that he can do himself. Play is his business in life, and should be an education to him. Mrs. Birong read an article from "Junior Home" entitled "When parents play with children," which brought out the fact the child should be encouraged to take the lead in such play. When the paret}t continually takes the leading role, a child will reach adult years without indepen~ence or self reliance. The meeting adjourned and refreshments were served.
