We have very often heard the state
ment Train a child in the way that
1t should go and when it is old, it
will not depart from it,. The thought
that is to be conveyed is: il a child
has the proper training the training
will most likely go with that child
through life.
When those of us who are grown up
begin to think about how hard it was
for mother and father to keep rs
straight when we were boys and girls
we realize that they had a big job and
responsibility to perform. It was not
then, it Is not now, and it never will
be an easy job to rear a family; to
bring up children in the way that they
should be brought

A Car stays on the highway because

very moment the car leaves the high
way. A car will not stay on that
pavement without running in the ditch
unless you keep your hands on the
steering wheel A car running on the
street will naturally run into the curb
or ditch if you don't keep your hands
on the steering wheel. Furthermore
that car must be examined; it must be
inspected; The bolts and screws mus,
be frightened; it must be washed and
groased-if not something may happen
that will cause it to leave the highway
though you have your hands on the

to the car but it is dangerous to the

of promotion, undergoing changes Of TN
told and untried experiences. They can
