found in the conditions that surround
the boy rather than in the boy him
self?
School people and oIher social
workers have come to think so
There is now a widespread move

the rural, communities. First we
preached, Back to the farm Then
We sa1u, Keep the boys on the farms
Now we say, Make the country a fit

fair to believe that the boys and

Courage.

The most Indispensable and valuable
asset for the conduct of life is courage
courage to endure. courage to CON

on. Without these how shall we do
more than drag out a miserable exist

tramps and beggars. living on the
doles fate offers us as we SLOUGH along
unpremeditaJed ways? Could there
be a better prayer for the opening
year than this Give us courage to
be masters of ourselves. courage to
swim against the stream, courage to
drown. when our due time Is come
with serene hearts and quiet faith in
God When that prayer is answered
living deserves a song and diving be
comes an episode in the history of a
man. II religion did not more than
make this forward looking courage
possible. il would deserve our rever-
