THE BllEVARD NEWS, BREVACD, NORTH CAROLINA FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1923 EEHE5E23 HOMES AND HOMES To say that the orphaned children, are the most fortunate would be to state the matter too strongly. But certain it is that Koine orphans have an advantage in that the right sort of homes are chosen for them by ex perienced and kindly supervisors of the asylums or other institutions that have undertaken responsibility for the child's well-being. The child who lives wilh his own parents is subject to whatever conditions happen to pre vail in the particular home he has been born into, says the Boston Her ald. If he has been allotted wise and considerate parents, willing to create . a helpful atmosphere, the child is. Indeed, blest. If he has drawn fool ish, inconsiderate and selfish parents, lie is far worse off than the orphaned waif, who is placed in ft carefully se lected home, there- to be properly trained and nurtured. It is a pity that every child cannot have a proper home, with his own mother mil! faih er. But, of the two classes of "orphans," these whose parents are dead and those whose parents are false to them, the former are not al wavs the worse off. See Us For Staple and A writer in the Christian Science Monitor says: "Several years ago, when I was working for a moving picture company, an or:...::izal ion of writers asked me to talk to them about writing for the screen. The only thing I said was that the bei way write for the screen was to forget tiie screen and write as well as they knew how. Anything le.-s than that. I jointed out. wonld be unfair to both tlit- writer and the screen. 1 nless tue screen could make use of the writer'-, iinost work he would be doing himsi 0 a grave injustice to take it into con sideration. r.ioi'co er. the screen though it had not then discovered the fact, was in dire iv of real li!"ra tare, literature embodying American ideas and ideals, and writing done to measure would prevent the screen fiom developing to a point where it would be the author's servant and not liis master."
