For Our Children

Is there any thrill like watching the
Growth and development of young
life? In every form, life is made
better by cultivation and living care,
especially in the race of man. Do all
PARENTS and teachers realize to its
fullest extent that they are response
ble for the lives committed to their
care and that God has honored and
trusted them when he made this so 4?
The home should be careful never
70 shirk to the school what it should
contribute to this responsibility and
the school should try to cooperate
with the ideals of the home. A good
teacher may be the greatest help to
narents as he has an impartial view
Of the child and sees things to which
parents may be blind and together
thew often correct faults that might
become serious.
Are we sincere in trying to see that
our young folks have the best in
health, recreation and places Of
amusement?
Those who know youth, know that
it thinks straight unless warped by
circumstances or environment. 1t is
I'D to an organization like ours to try
to keep them thinking that way. Elk
pect something of these fine young
people, have faith in them. They
look to you to show the way. Will
YOU keep the faith? Let each of us
think of the best we have to offer to
this cause and if we do not expect our
youth to disappoint US, let US see that
we do not disappoint them.
