titude Of a little child as an ex-
ample of the attitude we should
take IN order TO be able 10 enter
Heaven. The church is one OF tho
organizations which has at heart the
I interest OF the children. The pub

ganization which can do much for
the children. The teacher has a
wonderful opportunity for becom-

ment IS one OF the greatest move
ments in the United States today |
We should support this movement |
with all our might.
