BRITISH PARENTS
REPROVED BY THE KING FOR BRINGING BACK CHILDREN FROM COUNTRY. RAID DANGERS BY NO MEANS OVER. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.40 p.m.) LONDON, August 8. The Ministry of Information has issued a pamphlet to reinforce the reproof which the King has administered to parents who have been bringing children back to cities from the country. Fifty thousand children have returned to London in the last six months. The pamphlet states that a wholesale return of children from the country would ruin two years’ work, besides exposing the children to the danger of raids, which the authorities regard .as by no means over. The city children were rapidly losing their city habits. They had adopted the country early to bed habit, and had become interested in farm animals, ploughing, sowing and harvesting. Far from the evacuee imposing his manners and customs of speech on the native, it is the reverse.
