in touch with their children's
friends will agree that boys and
girls Of today enjoy the game In.
nocent pleasures that children
used to enjoy; they find the
same sort of joy in holidays and
celebrations that we did long
ago; they still respect authority
when it IS linked with truth and
honor and efficiency. The
trouble is that present.day
youngsters are smarter than we
used to be and they recognize
shams that we swallowed whole.
In every town there are a few
children with the minds and the
tastes of little old men and wo.
men: but that doesn't go for the
majority.
1t is great consolation to
know that there are definite and
effective forces for good lined up
against the evil influences that
are reaching out after our boys
and girls. Churches, schools and
patriotic societies are probably
accomplishing more good with
their juvenile organizations than
with every other undertaking
combined.
The high standard Of thinking
and acting that is set by the Boy
Scouts, the Girl Scouts and other
clean-life organizations is gradu-
ally communicating itself to the
whole younger generation. There
are certainly many reasons to
feel encouraged about the chill
dren of today. For, in spite OF
their advancement in matters Of
intellectual, most of them are
still children in their hearts.
