 Finding ones Place-Smith Escott Conference report-W William Escott Committees report on state policy Challie Cook
 This report was prepared by a conferenct committee of boys and un- animously adopted by the 197 delegat- es at the conference. We print follow ing the report in full.
 We, the committee on State Policy for the Southwest Arkansas Older Boys Conference, recognizing the re- construction of war torn world de- mands clean cut Christian manhood recommend that this Conference go on record as favoring the following. l 1. That we try to create the older boys of this state sentiment for con tinuing in school and college until we are adequately equipped for life's work.
 1 2. That we lend our entire supporG to the promotion of the Keeping Fit program.
 3. That we endorse and Loyalty l support our Sunday Schools and churches.
 A. That we favor closer comrade- ship. between fathers and sons. 5. That we favor closer friend- ship among the older boys themselves and the suppression of the sins of salfishness.
 6. We maintain that prayer and ;c oY,1x nI ;oI n Christian life and recommend that it be a. vital part of every .boy's daily program.
 T. We recommend that since the home is the greatest American insti- tuition, that we accord more respect to our fathers and mothers, and so con duct our lives that we may in time be worthy to establish homes and be the heads of families. 8. In recognition of our awakened obligations to other peoples, we rec ommend that we support the League of Nations in so far as it is consistent with the principles of humanity 9. We believe that common decency demands that every boy accord every girl the respect he thinks is due his sister.
 10. We recommend that each dele gation here on returning home show by example that ws stand for the I"Come Clean Program" in it's entirely namely, clean athletics, clean speech, clean scholarship and clean living. II. We recommend that upon re- turning home each boy here take "a positive, determined but sensible and tactful attitude against the cigarette evil, petty gambling, and every other undesirable element in his school, and that by combined effort we do not rest until these evils are completely elimi- mated.
 72 and last. We recommend that this Conference become permanent organization and meet annually or at sYch a time as may be designated by the State Executive Committee of tke Young Mems Christian Association of Arkansas.
