Are You A Parent?

We will not ask whether YOU are proud and fond
of your childrenl You arel
You are living for your children and il is an inter
esting absorbing, anxious life. The babies must be
taught work and sent to school And you sometimes
think OF the property you leave them when your life
is over.
The best and biggest you give them will not be
property. You give them an honorable name, YOU give
them the habits of industry and the principles of honesty
and fair play and interest in community welfare, and
LOYALTY to our country, And you hope to give them
share and place in ''The Kingdom of Heaven"
Between IS and IS the most important years
These the restless years when temptations strong
But so all good impulses strong between rs and IS
and these the years in which they learn easily and
generally settle the question OF whether they will be
good average folks whether they will turn out
below the average above the average
To help parents through this crucial time a good
school is needed. We school away from home
where the young person has little adventure,
new people and gives his main attention to learning and

Are You Between IS and rs?

These the important years OF your life!
During these years you will settle the question of
whether you will be good average folks" whether
you will drop below the average, above the
averaged
Or without comparing yourself with others you will
decide whether you will be much OF a person as God
intended or whether you will be something less
Get all you out OF your parents. Ii is for you to
profit by their experience and advice They love you
better than anybody else will
And get all you you from the example of neigh
bors the wisdom of the preacher, and the instructions
OF the school teacher
But besides all this you want tc spend some time
away from home at good school. People who wanted
help the young folks and to build up the nation have
founded Berea which invites you to make it your second
home.
l. Berea is really six schools among which YOU
take your pick according your talents needs and
life plans.
2. Each OF these schools, College, Academy Normal
Vocational Foundation, is the best OF its kind drawing
students from all parts of the country, and so well
equipped with good teachers libraries, scientific appara-
tus etc, that your progress will be sound and rapid
8. You will have good time in Berea You will meet
the best young folks from dozen states You will enjoy
the play and the play grounds the walking parties the
literary society the tree moving picture shows and
tainments and the work squads in garden shop and
laundry!
4. You get to Berea. The instruction is offered
you free gift So is the of Boarding Hall and
rooms-you only pay enough for running expenses And
great skill and pains have been used make the expenses
very low Study this matter. Plenty of people now
wish they had gone school when they had the chance

Every new student, when he ar
rives in Berea for the first time.
will be wonderfully surprised.
II this is your first time TO go
away from home TO school, you will
have a tendency 10 feel lost and un-
duly jostlcd about by the large
crowd. Our great college buildings
will look cold and friendless. You
will wonder what so many buildings
are for and why so many students
are rushing here and there, and
what il all means; but when you
have been directed from one office
to another, and met the friends
whose faces appear on the pages Of
this Citizen, they will explain TO you
what il all means. They will tell
you that il is a part Of education,
Of system, Of regularity, that is
necessary to do for accomplishing
great things in the world. Then
the buildings will begin TO look
more home-like, more comfortable;
their bigness will begin TO fade and
you will begin TO grow TO fit them.
II you have come from some
other school TO Berea, your Won
derment will be Of a different kind.
You will begin TO compare our
buildings with those you have seen
at other places. You will begin to
wonder if our way Of doing things
is the way you have been used TO.
You will think that it takes you a
longer time TO get into Berea than

into some other schools that you
know, but when you have gotten in
and have become acquainted with
our orderly system, our wonderful
labor plan and the opportunities
that are open for young men and
women TO get an education, you
will grow. Your ideas Of education
will be changed. You will see that
Berea is doing things in a new and
an unusual way. You will tell your
room mate how thankful you are
that you got in touch with the Col
lege and finally came.
President Frost, whose picture you
see in the center Of this group, is
a man you want 10 meet before you
leave Berea. He will give special
attention TO the College students
this fall, because Of the great needs
OF the nation that college men and
women are called upon 10 meet.
