CHILDREN RICHLY WORTH
WHILE
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON,

A woman writes to say that she does not believe
children are worth all that parents must sacrifice in
money, leisure and worry.
She is wrong. This sort Of an argument generally
obtrudes itself into the mind of a person who has no
children. The real parent never thinks of it.
No babys worth can be measured in dollars and
cents. The mother quickly forgets the pain she en-.
The father never recalls with regret the money he
has spent for his child's welfare.
Our children MAJ cause our chief anxiety and
sorrow in life. Sometimes they do, but even this
does not alter the fact that they also bring us some.
thing great and spiritual which we can obtain from no
other source. s
They are our links with eternity. Even though we
shadow Of their souls somehow makes us nobler be-
ings. Throughl them we become a part of life that
goes on forever through the ages.
Nothing so argues the material ideals Of this age
as the reluctance of so many men to raise a family.
Upon investigation one finds that in many cases where
a couple are childless, it is the man who has hest
tated at the added responsibility. Having in most
do not realize the danger of delay in having their
children.
When you are young and giddy and gay, you do
not miss your babies greatly, but as the years creep
onward, some day there comes into your life n great
emptiness. Your days are suddenly filed with a ter
rible ennui. You are bored with living. Everything
becomes tiresome. You realize at last that you are
through with living. :.
When this time comes. as it does sooner or later
to every person. children are your salvation. In them
you live again. Through their eyes the world appears
green and lovely. The drabness Of middle age is made
beautiful all,because you somehow forget yourself and
are born sgain in your. love for your boys and girls.
CHILDREN often are expensive luxuries, but they
bring yot the biggest return for your money.

HISTORY REPEATS

While it all looks new to us in this generation,
history actually is repeating today in Mexico.
1t is the old, old battle between church and
Estate. :
Back in 1857 Bonito Juarez was the Gales Of
his day. Church estates were seized. A decree sup
pressing priests was issued. Public sale of church
lands was ordered.
In retaliation, church officials excommunicated
governmental leaders. Then came naturalization of
all church property and suppression of religious COM
munities.
The fight that is on in Mexico today finds the
ssame elements arrayed against each other.
IN the one side is the government, charging at
stempts by the Catholic church to control the polit-
ical life of the nation.
On the other side, the church. charging the civil
government with suppression of freedom to worship,
freedom Of speech, freedom of the press.
Two principles, fundamental in the United
States, have never been settled in Mexico.
They are, first, separation of church and state,
and, second, freedom to worship as one pleases,
Until both these principles are accepted in
Mexico, the war between church and state will go

BELGIUM NEVER CRIED

Belgium was the wars doormat. We heard of
atrocities there in number, but no whimper. The
war is, over now. and the powers of Europe have
arisen one by one to wall over the hddler's fees. We
have not yet heard one Schirp from the bravest of
these, the Belgae."
Belgium owes the United States $417. $50. 900,
and that is no small amount for a country of that
size to be paying. In ~sixty-two years. with the inter
est and all, Belgium will have paid 1927, 1905 for
the honor Of having the enemy tear up her cathe,
drals, wreck her homes and denolish her business
sections.
But King Albert has found a way. The state
owned railroad system has been turned over to pri-
vate capital. The company has agreed to exchange
stock in the roads for short-term government obli-
cations. Interest on the railroad securities. that is
dividends, still is guaranteed by the government,
giving investors confidence. In this way Albert cal
culates to return to the gold standard not later
than Jan. l.
Belgium is trying to fight, not cry. her way out
of it.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1926-07-30

on as it has been going on since Bonito Juarez,
born in a poems hut in a little mountain village,
rose to the presidency of that country where war
ring never ceases.
Each new fare-up in Mexico is the signal for
interventionists on this side of the Rio Grande to
come forth.
1t should be borne in mind that where there Is
talk of intervention there is oil.
1t should further be borne in mind that the issues
at stake today are not new; that naturalization of
church property has been a bone of contention for
sixty years; that real peace can come to Mexico only
when these two great principles-separation of
church and state and freedom to worship-have been
accepted by the Mexican people themselves.
