STANDARD OF PRESENT AND
PAST COOMPARED BY NEW
YORK SPECIALIST
NEW YORK, Feb. 18. (&)—A com
parison of ithe problems of youth in
America today as against past gen
erations is the subject of a statement
prepared by Dr. Carro Croft of the
New York Department of Health.
Calling attention to the fact that
people are living under entirely dif
ferent conditions than in previous
generations, Dr. Croff said “it is unfair
to judge young people by standards of
the past,” calling attention to the
fact that not only boys and girls, but
men and women are in the present
age are living under entirely differ
ent conditions than previous genera
tions. With breakfast degenerating
into a relay race, home life giving
place to jazz and social activities, and
each member of the family intent on
his own affairs, young people are not
having the oversight and direction
they should have. “Is it any wonder,”
she asked, “that they are becoming
impatient of restraint and imagining
that ‘thrills’ are essential to happi
ness?”
To overcome this tendency, to guide
the young waay from ruinous tempta
tions and to direct them toward the
worth while things of life, Dr. Croff
urged a closer companionship between
parents and children, the giving of
clean, simple information to children
regarding bodily functions and an en
deavor to make them understand the
beauty and sacredness of a proper sex
life and its control.
