Calling All Adults!

This Is The Call: To do some
thing seriously and intelligently
about an adequate religious edu-
cation for this generation of chill
dren and youth under eighteen
years of age. This concerns ALL
adults, whether parents or not.
1t is adult character and conduct
that determines the conduct and
characer of each generation.
J. Edgar Hoover, director of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
has recently issued leaflet en-
titled II Believe In The Sunday
School" 1t is we'll known that Mr.
Hoover never makes statements
based only on emotion What he
says is based on facts. The fol-
lowing are some startling ex-
amples: Grimes of murder by
boys 10 to 18 years have increas-
ed At per cent. Sex offenses by
girls have risen 375 per cent
Drunkenness among these groups
has mounted 174 per cent. Chill
dren are today committing Sc per
cent of all crimes"
And the most alarming thing is
that we, the adults, cannot pass
the responsibility for these statis-
tics on to inanimate causes such
as billlboards; it is we, the adj
ults, who write the movies and
show them Unfortunately. We
can't blame the children. 1t is
easy to say, ooh, children forget
these things. They will know bet
ter when they grow up" That is
only self-deception. To prove it
just watch your children!
Horace Bushnell once said,
"Home and religion are kindred
words; home, because it is the
seat of religion; religion, because
it is the sacred element of home.
A house without roof would
scarcely be more Indifferent
home than a family without re-
ligion"
The business of the home and
the church is to save families
from the secularism of our day.
The family needs to be truly
Christian, so that we may have
a Christian community and a
Christian world. Parents interest
ed in the spiritual life of children
at home make possible effective
Christian training at church.
Where there is will there is
a way" and certainly where
there Is such a desperate need,
we, the adults, must begin to in-
sist on the "way,"
Americas children are our chill
dren-not the children of the
State, nor Of the supreme court.
Ii we wait much longer there
will be no use of even trying, for
we are not developing in this
generation the inner strength to

THE LETTER BOX

AS stated in The Herald last
week, l am retiring from the po-
sition of game warden the last of
this month.
Otto Kendrick, who will sue
coed me, is a young man of ina
tegrity, energetic and has always
been interested in conservation.
He had to leave a family at the
beginning of World War II and
serve through the duration in the
South Pacific. He has had ample
experience as an official of the
National Forest Service and the
State of Virginia to fit him for
the job. He is well aware that he
will not be able to do all that
needs to be done or to satisfy
everybody He knows that game
wardens have no authority to kill
all the dogs that people who dis
like dogs wishes them to. He
knows that many, many times
those who complain the longest
and loudest Of game and fish law
violations are themselves viola
tors.
Having served the required 20
years, will be entitled to a small
retirement fund for life. This win
not come out of the public treas
ury, but from a fund built up
through the years by monthly de
auctions from the wages of all
state employees to provide an an
nuity for those who serve the re-
quired length of time.
am grateful to the people who
have aided me in this job, and
particularly the members of. the
various game clubs. Without such
help no official can accomplish
much.
l have served under and with
good officials and I regard every
one of them as cherished friends.
They have stood by me through
thick and thin and the pure-in-
hearts who tried from time to
time to have me fired learned
they had small weight with hon
est men. I regret that in retiring
I will miss the friendly associa-
ton and contact with old friends
that I have looked forward to
each year and that | have enjoy
ed.
To you good people hereabouts
who have been my friends, l will
say that l will be right around
among you until am called
hence
