That home training was indae-
quate in these cases should be
quite obvious. Not that the re-
sponsibility for the lack of it al
ways falls on the parents. Eco
nomic privation almost always lays
at the bottom Of poor home train
ing. The best way to improve
home training is, therefore, to
improve the economic status of
the under privileged.
While this is being done, there
rs one other extremely important
factor which we mentioned in
passing yesterday, namely, rehabil-
itation. To bring this about Day

Forestry Being
Recognized As
Special Calling
By M. B. PARSONS
District Ranger
kfississippi Forest Service

Forestry is becoming recog-
nized in this country as a spe-
cialized business just as farming
L. or any similar enterprise. 1t
calls for the use OF land and con-
tinuous production of crops of
economically valuable species of
trees, with attention to both vol
ume and quality.
Forests in many cases can be so
managed that they will yield reg
uiar income or profit. To do so,
ii is essential that the produc-
tive capacity Of the forest be
maintained at the highest prac-
tieable level. The enterprise in
wolves growing more wood and
better wood that will bring high
er prices. II the timber stands
are run down, they must be built
up in order to increase the for
est capital so that greater future
returns are possible.
Forests. by and large, under
management can be made to yield
financial returns comparable with
those from other properties re-
quiring long-term investments
Always there has been n demand
for forest products.
Although one-third of our coun-
try Is forest land, we are not even
getting as much wood from il
as we use now, far less than we
shall need when there are more OF
us. We are already bringing it
in from other countries.
The private timberland own
ers In Southeast Mississippi are
passing up a wonderful oppor-
tunity IL they do not take adj
vantage Of long growing seasons
and abundance OF rain TO grow
pine trees on the many idle acres
thereby turning a liability into
an asset.
drowning Trees Good Business
Growing trees for profit is a
good business IL properly man
aged on a sustained yield and
profit basis.
Unfortunately many do not
manage their holdings for sus-
tanned income. Forest owners who
are not dependent on the income
from such land for immediate
needs are in a particularly ia
vorable position to build up the
productive capacity of the forest
and thus provide for a larger
sustained future Income.
Most of the pioneers who under
took forestry measures when the
uncertainties were greater than
they are today, ri already reap
ing the reward Of their foresight.
Rarely is an owner found who re-
grets his investment of time and
money in permanent forest pro-
duction. Most such owners re-
greet that they did not start
sooner
Good management is day and
night vigilance against wild fires.
Fire is the greatest enemy of the
forests. 1t destroys more forest
growth and keeps more young
trees from being born than any
other single force. In most years
more trees, little and big, are des-
troyed by fire than are harvested.
Loss to the men who rely on the
forests for their work and their
wages has sometime been esti-
mated as high as two hundred
million dollars in a single year.
Selective cutting and thinning
is necessary to improve grade and
stands of timber or woodlots.
When marking trees to be cut 1t is
important to cut first diseased
trees, those having short crooks
and bushy trees having wide
limb spread, provided they are
not needed for seed trees.

So the first week of Johnny's first
year at school is overt On the
whole, 1t has probably been
pleasant and exciting experience
for him, packed with new people
and new situations. Just what do
some of those changes you've
noticed in him mean? And what
can you do to work with his teacher
to see that this important first
year-probably kindergarten, pos
sibly first grade-is a successful
one?
We asked spokesmen from the
Children's Bureau and the District
of Columbia Public Schools to tell
us something about the way a
youngster is apt to feel in his larger
world, and how parents can work
with teachers successfully. Accord
ing to the Children's Bureau,
Johnny or Susie will probably be-
have a little differently, at least
during the first weeks of the term,
but it's as normal as teeth cutting,
and something for parents to simply
take in their stride. He'll probably
assert his independence more now
he has learned he has to do this
to some extent in school to secure
his place in the sun. Then, too,
his assertiveness at home may be
simply a way of letting off steam"
after. this new experience of ad-
justing to the necessary rules and
regulations in school, You'll notice
it less and less as he becomes ad-
justed to his school environment.

teacher is wonderful-and QUOTA

lief formerly held, incidentally that
slow growers were dull, has been
disproven. One study showed that
some children who were mediocre
in the first and second grades were
outstanding by the time they
reached fifth and sixth. And some
children simply are not ready to
read until they are 7h years old
Data on the methods used by the
parents in disciplining and the op-
portunity the child has had to play
with other children all help the
teacher in treating the child as an
individual.
If you haven't already done So
see that your child has had physi-
cal examination. Difficulty in hear
ing may impair his ability to learn
to read, for example. Also, when
the child's school day is done he
should have period of unregu-
lated play and rest period. 1t will
be such help to your child. too. If
you have taught him to speak dis
tinctly.
A last point-this school spokes-
man told us of the times she has
stepped into a kindergarten and
discovered a sizeable number of par
ents literally lowering over their
children. Teachers welcome par
ents' suggestions, and want them to
come to the school and observe their
children effectively in their rela-
tions with other children. Appoint
ments should be made, of course,
when a conference with the teacher
is desired. 1t is only when the
parents presence serves as crutch
that 1t is damaging to the child,
and a handicap to the teacher.
