w h at Shall We
Teach Our Chill
dren About the
War?
(W. D. H.)


What shall we teach oul
children in regard to the war
First and last, let us have no
compromise or suggestion OF
compromise as to the justice OF
the American cause-No ad-
mixture of false pacifism in re-
lation to one of the few ab-
solutely just and unavoidable
wars that the world has ever
seen. unmarried by fanaticlsm,
mistaken hatred or lust OF
gain. Let us permit no con-
fusion of ideos between the Old
time war of aggression or re-
venge, and this present war OF
unselfish sacrifice to save hu-
manity from the reign OF the
beast.
Now as to details, what dl-
recting influences shall we ap-
ply to lead the thoughts OF our
children into the sanest chan
nels?
It is obvious that children Of
different ages will require
widely different stimuli. This
war is the greatest tragedy OF
history, and in it's tragic quality
must be brought differently in
to contact with children of diff
ferent ages. Who would tell a
tot of five or six the story OF
Macbeth? Hho would refuse to
read the play to a young man or
woman of seventeen or eigh-
teen because of it's tragic ele-
mentS?
For the smaller children let us
draw from the war-without
much mention of the sad details
itself, the lesson of unselfish-
ness, of sympathy, gentleness,
consideration and a certain
amount of Self-denial in food and
in treats and pleasures.
1t is enough for our little
ones to know that Belgian chill
dren are hungry and that the
children of Halifax are cold.
To go into further details is to
give a needless shock to the ten
der sensibilities; but to ignore
suffering entirely is to do per-
haps greater harm to the little
souls in the opposite direction.
The support of a French or
Belgian orphan by the children
of primary grades as has been
done throughout our country
would be a grand idea for the
schools of Nogales to take up as
it provides an opportunity for
the needed giving up of cherish
ed sweets or pleasures, en-
courages the joy of sharing,
and, perhaps best of all, as we
look forward twenty years,
promotes a sense of kinship
with our friends across the
sea, which must be the new key
note of American life in place
of that isolation which has been
our boast. If our safety in the
past has lain in distance from
the Old World struggles, our
safety and our honor, too, in the
future, must lie in worthy
participation in the struggle Of
the whole world, old and new,
toward realized ideals of demo-
cracy.
/ would treat the war, then,
among the smaller children in
a manner not unlike that which
a careful parent takes toward
the little child, and loving

children. This only should the
world war mean to them.
With children of ten to twelve
a distinctly new element enters
into the situation. Geography
is for many at that age, the
favorite study. Facts are de-
light. The spirit of adventure
has hold upon the boy and even
upon the girl. The live young
ster cannot be kept from tho
newspaper, nor should he be. |
have a brother who comes un-
der this class and if he had his
way he would be in the army
today and if the job was offer
ed him would probably be more
than willing to lead our forces
in France. Youngsters of this
age are certain to follow the
campaigns on every front, and
to trace the forward movement
of every battle line. Problems
of strategy will interest them,
and we may well discuss these
with them.
Nor should we fail to carry
them into the more important
field of industrial strategy, in
which every one of us has q
part.
For every quarter hour spent
in the study of military and
naval tactics, ten times as much
may profitably be given to what
is being done to marshall our in
dustrial forces, conserve sup
plies, stimulate production and
provide transportation. 1t may
be an awakening to some of our
children to realize that the
family garbage pail is on the
firing line.
The child of this age, then, is
strong on the practical side Of
the war, and what we offer him
must be planned accordingly.
On the ethical and emotional
sides he is in a transition stage.
Those elements that we have
as belonging to the
smaller children must not be
lost sight of with those of in
termediate age; they will need,
of course, less minute elabora-
tion. To sensitive souls there
is still the danger of shock from
details of horrors. Let us
diligently keep away from what
is morbid.
The glamor of war, if the
children feel it, will not be the
glamor of the dress parade, as
it used to be. Boys and girls
are not too young to realize
what it means for men to 90
forth and give "the last full
of devotion" They
have read, perhaps. Mrs.
'The Perfect Tri-
bute," and surely they know the
Iddress at Gettysburg.
The thought of service may
well take serious turn with
them. If they are Scouts, let
us help them to live the scout
life more worthily than ever be-
fore. Whether boy or girls,
outs or not, let us make them
realize that honor and victory
and all things that make life
worth while are bound up in
service; that play, while not
gone from life, is a minor mat
ter compared with the serious
business of serving, and finally,
that service can be efficient and
loyal only when it is absolutely
odient, without the variation
of a hairs breath from the line
down by the superior lofficer.
This much of ''militarism" let
us have in our homes and
schools, for we may have it
with safety. Father, mother OF
teacher, whichever may be
this article, please re-
this injunction.
The young men and women

morrow than America has ever
looked forward to before, to-.
morrow that will come upon us
quickly. With them we must
confer as with adults. 1t is
their right and our duty that it
should be so.
Their knowledge Of Europe
henceforth must be clearer and
more mature than it has been.
They must understand both
Prussianism and the spirit in
Europe that is at death grips
with Prussianism. Particularly
must they be in sympathetic
touch with the habits, the in
stitutions and the national hopes
of our great Allies. Only so can
they appreciate Americas place
in this struggle and in the
worlds future. No standing
aloof in times like these!
With this touch, this per-
ception, they will be reused to
comprehend the titanic strug-
gle as conflict in which there
can be no compromise; a war
for ideals that are worth all they
cost, no matter how much that
may be, ideals the overthrow of
which means return to savagery.
Have any of our readers gone
to the bottom of the simple
question, "What is democracy?
What are the privileges and
obligations that it entails ?"
Perhaps we have said too little
of this in our article about the
influences that are seeking to
destroy democracy.
We make our lesson very
concrete, for Prussianism is but
the development on a gigantic
scale of a self-righteous, domi-
neering brutality such as is
likely to appear in some in
dividual on almost any play
ground The high school COM
munity that succeeds in making
justice the foundation of every
relation between individuals is
well on it's way to an under
standing of real democracy.
With this understanding of
democracy and the sense of
kinship with our Allies will
come the eagerness to serve in
the great cause. And to you
high school teachers falls the
responsibility of directing in
great measure this service as
well as the parents. You must
now parents and teach
ers-take the long view of what
America must do in the future
in world affairs, and your ad-
vice and teachings must be
built for the needs of at least
a decade hence. 1t will be your
duty in many cases to restrain
the youth who would rush now
into active service, and per-
suade him to make better pre-
paration that he may serve
more efficiently hereafter.
Young men and women who
come from such teaching will
not yield to the hysteria of hate
of our enemies, nor will they
plunge headlong into the first
career that offers. They will
choose ithoughtfully how they
will serve their country. and
having chosen, they will carry
on to the very end. This article
is written by request, for every
parent who cares for the welfare
Of his children, for every teach
er who have a large influence in
shaping the destines of our
country and every patriot whose
soul is wrapped up in the future
of his country. l call upon you
to take heed before it is to late
for the hope of the world is
wrapped up in the coming
generation that we are slowly
molding by our influnces and
teachings.
