This is International Boys Week and it is fitting

and observe the week with fitting programs and eXer
clSes
Too often the growing boy is regarded by the
munity pest, given entirely up TO pranks and mis-
chief and particularly prone to breaking windows and
tying to dogs tails.
Few of us, unfortunately, stop to realize that the
fate of the nation lies in those grmy hands and that
encased in that boyish head embryonic ideas which
if prop1rly directed and developed will guide the
destneS OF communities states and the nation ITSELF
The Boy Scout movement is doing much to turn

be most helpful and effective.
Organizations such as the Rotary Club are TAX

molding of character and encouragement OF right
ideals.
The importance of fathers and being better
pals particularly emphasized in speeches this week.
here lies of the greatest safeguards for the small
