HOW JUVENILE DELINQUENCY
STARTS
By Charlotte Davidson
When a baby first enters this Unruly
world it knows nothing Its
soul Hath had elsewhere its setting
and cometh from afar
The very moment the child is exposed
to the worldly light it is contaminated
with the sin and rebuke
felt by all mankind
As the child grows older It begins
to watch the actions of oth
crs When the father of the child
hits his thumb with a hammer and
accidentally hurls some slang word
from his lips the child understands
that these words are used to show
vi
anger and hurt feelings
Not only through words docs the
child get the wrong impression of
life but also through the misconduct
of parents and visitors In the
home
During her fortytwo parties Mom
serves a drink with a high kick to
It Through this small act the child
believes that it takes a strong drink
to keep a party alive
When Dad tells Junior to hang his
coat up and Junior does not Daddy
usually spanks Then Junior cries
and Daddy feels sorry for his little
boy and promises tok buy him an
ice cream cone if ho will not cry
Later as Junior becomes an older
boy he remembers these little episodes
during ills childhood thinking
that his wrong conduct will always
be forgiven
On Juniors sixteenth birthday he
is given a bright and shiny toy a

new car He Is told that he must not
drive fast and carelessly and to return
home nt exactly twelve oclock
Let us take a look Into Juniors
life from the time ho leaves homo
until the time ho returns
After leaving the house with a
promise to return at the expected
hour he meets Jim at a corner
drug store From here we follow the
two boys to their girl friends
houses After a relaxing movie and
a little courting between scenes we
see them on a nice dark country
road Hero one boy dares the other
to drag a weed This weed soon
becomes dope and other such tempting
pleasures
When Junior returns home Mom is
waiting for him Yes he has had a
nice time yet he was a good boy
and didnt drive fast
Junior has had a good time and
is popular with his friends His parents
were polite to his friends and
found them nice and very quiet but
somewhere along the line someone
has made a mistake
Junior was not taken to church
nor was he taught the difference between
right and wrong He knew no

strict discipline in the home Ho was
allowed too many freedoms at a too
early age Ho believes that following
the crowd will keep him out
of trouble
Junior is not the only juvenile who
has been misled In life but millions
of boys and girls all over
America and throughout the world
are taking the wrong paths These
children arc following an example
set by others
Some children are not misled
through their homellfe These discover
that thcro are not many interesting
activities to take part in
so they make their own In doing
so they find adventure in hazards
and danger
Juveniles are told not to participate
in evil activities but they are
not given good clean activities to
occupy their time and keep them
busy
A child is not born with delinquency
In his soul but It slowly
grows and becomes a part of his
everyday life

WILDERNESS VALUES
This column Is a portion of a
speech by Howard Zahnizer executive
secretary of the Wilderness
Society Washington D C before
the National Citizens Planning
Conference on Parks and Open
Spaces
I believe that in the present phase
of our civilization we have a profound
fundamental need for areas
of wilderness a need that is not only
recreational and spiritual but also
educational and scientific and
withal essential to a true understand
ing of ourselves
Wilderness to most of us is vacation
country but wilderness vacations
have those overtones that make
them more than narrowly recreational
They are more likely to be
joyous than merry more refreshing
than exciting Their rewards are
satisfaction It is characteristic of
wilderness to impress its visitors
with their relationship to other
forms of life and to afford those
who linger an intimation of the independence
of all life
Because we are so able to do
things we forget that we can do
them only because something else
is done We forget that we can
continue only so long as other men
other animals and other forms of
life also keep on doing things Wc
forget that the real source of all
of our life is not in ourselves not
even in the earth itself but more
than 90 million miles away in the
sun
If for a time some of us seem
to do well at the tragic expense of
other life in this community wo
can be sure that it would likewise boat
the expense of our children our
grandchildren and our greatgrand
children through the generations that
might live
We deeply need the humility to
know ourselves as the dependent
members of a great community of
life and this can indeed be one of
the spiritual benefits of a wilderness
experience Without the gadgets the
inventions the contrivances whereby
men have seemed to establish
among themselves an independence
of nature to know the wilderness
is to know a profound humility to
sense dependence and Interdependence
indebtedness and responsibilityParadoxlally wilderness also
teaches modern man a needed personal
independence an ability to
to care for himself to carry his
own burdens to provide his own
fuel prepare his own food furnish
his own shelter and perhaps
most remarkable of all transport
himself by walking
Our developing mechanical en
terprises are such that we must
make a deliberate effort to preserve
the wilderness we have Only
those areas which ate set aside for
preservation will persist as wilderness
It behooves us then to do
two things we must see thrt an adequate
system of wilderness areas is
designated for preservation and
then we must allow nothing to alter
the wilderness character of the
preserves
Conservation is both practical and
idealistic as well demonstrated in
our concern with wilderness preservation
It seems good ethical to
consider ourselves as members of
a community of life that embraces
the earth and to see our own welfare
as arising from the prosperity of
the community
Yet there may be danger in our
too conscious too deliberate too intent
an effort to see all in terms
of our own welfare Jesus suggested
that selfseeking is not the way
to selfrealization not dellberatly

but through Indirection human beings
realize best welfare by losing
sight of themselves
It is a great satisfaction to be
able to demonstrate to another that
an unspoiled wilderness is important
because it serves mans need for
escapo but going to the wilderness
to escape from something Is no
certain way of actually being in the
wilderness at all The only way to
escape from ones self In the wilderness
is to lose ones self there
More realistically the tiuo wilderness
experience is one not of escaping
but of finding ones self
seeking the wilderness
The sum of this moralizing may
be In forsaking human arrogance
and courting humility In a respect
for the community and with regard
