NO DETERIORATION
IN TEMPERAMENT
CHILDREN BORN DURING WAR,
(United Tress Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright. )
LONODON January 21. The generalisation that children born during the Great War lack stability of temperament iluis become fashionable, but it is wrong, says Miss blroud, secretary of the Women’s Teachers’ Union.
Some of the bad unemployment years would have been more harmful to children, she says. To-day’s Hi-year-old children are splendid, being especially quick-thinking and self-re-liant.
Lord Hampton, Boy Scout Commissioner, says be cannot see any deterioration in lads born in 1918.
Mr Gibbs, secretary of the London Schoolmasters’ Association, is of the opinion that, in spite of mothers’ nerve-racking experiences during air raids, 16-year-old children are generally self-possessed.
