S er Highways lOcessary The loss f more than one. hun dred lives every day on the streets and .highways of our nation empha JtM the importance of a concen trated effort to make more motor . aific safer for the millions of drivers of cars, trucks and buses, ts well as for pedestrians who are compelled to use our streets and . highways. . The development of modern high ways find .high speed .motor ve hicles has made death a fellow traveler. No one knows with cer tainty when-the.Grim .Reaper rides alongside, or whose life will .be cut down by the invisible scythe. Despite programs to' educate us in highway aafety, traffic lights and signs, improved highways and automobiles, the toll of accidents is spelling. We pay a high price in hitman .-life for the recognised benefit which have accrued to so ciety through greater and faster mobility. The problem has no simple solu tion, faming signals, stop signs and flashing lights are helpful but, as traffic increases, they slow down , the movement of vehicles. Driving lessons and safety programs make' their contribution. -Regular inspec tion of motor vehicles, enforcement if traffic regulations and revocfe tion of driving licenses erect 1 a screen of protection. The problem multiplies, however,, as motor ,traf fic increases in volume, as well as in speed. ' Amaxing progress has ' been made jn constructing highways to accommodate -heavy, traffic. In many places, (he old twc-lane high ways have been replaced by .multi-, lane thoroughfares. Green-cross-ings have been eliminated, and even the toll highway has been accepted in soma states as a means to fi nance the relocation and improve ment of highways for the speeding of .traffic. .y With ail of this, and with the new JFederal highway urogram now going into effect, we cannot help but wonder whether this will mean an actual reduction in the casual ties suffered on the highways of our nation. Until drivers qf motor vehicles realize the. value of their own lives and the lives of others who use the highways, we fear the carnage on ,the highways will con tinue. We JW,t Know It All Nothing is .. more dangerous to the future peace of the world than the idea, widely held in the United States, and often glibly, expressed, that this country can and must de cide all the questions that arise all over the world, ;i- ' Whenever trouble occurs in some distant land, the statement is al most immediately forthcoming in this country' that, the . situation could have been completely avoided if the United State had taken a ( firm stand en the ' question some yean before. . . . This is: dangerous nonsense. Jf the only contribution that 1 the United States is going to make to the solution of grave- problems is a firm stand for whatever opinion prevails in this country, we might as well forget all dreams of a peaceful world. Moreover, the firm stand that we may take will be ludicrous unless, at all times, we are willing to main tain an army, navy and air force redy to apply pressure to every body, everywhere, ' who disagrees with us. ,' '' ' If you think society fs all right and that the world is perfect in its i ways, you' should be against any suggestion of reform. - Freedom of s;:eJ .is "a valuable possession of every man but it is a foolish individual who speaks too freely. .. ' Some of our gangsters are, find- ing out that it 4s more .dangerous not to answer questions than to op erate their rackets. : . It might be a good idea for some Americans to study the principle upon which their .government was founded. If half , of what the candidates say about each pther were true the nation wouldn't last ten months af ter an ejection. -. - ; ' I VISIT PLANNED SUNDAY '.

Lesson Textt ' ' - Deuteronomy 6:1-9, iO-K.' 1 -f,f' I A B OS J .ii..-lw' ( II Of the three' institutions whicB form -the basis of modern'-' society. the- -home, the -school and : the church, it can be safely said hat the home is the most important, be cause as the home succeeds or .fails, the others follow likewise. , -The trend of the tpast decade , or twi has been away from the home as a center, of ' family life, and this has had" its noticeable .effects, on socieh ty, as a whoje. " . ' ' Too 'often today, parents ,depen(l entirely, for the spiritual educa tion of vtljeir childre,n, on 't!ie ' few; minutes they spenfl m a Sunday School. One hour, bnce a week-if a child attends regularly is hardly' enough instruction to give a child much understanding of his or her religious responsibilities. v The .Jews were commanded 4o "diligently" teach jeligious truths to their children. . . They jvece t explain o them what the command' mentg.of God mean and what theiT significance was tor them. 'They were to tell their children about the history of Israel, about the goodness of God to their race in de livering them from the hand of Pharaoh, and they were to teach their children to "love' Jehovah thy God1 with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all -thy .might."v . ' ; ; ; It is obvious, however, that par ents ; cannot teach their children what they themselves do not k.now. There are many parents today ,who are unable, from thsir own knowl edge, to adequately teach their chil dren religious truths. And, sad to say, numy of these parents are pro fessing Christians.' J j If a couple sincerely desires ti:Lt their children shall bp brought f ? in ' religious afanosphere, .thy must remember that the "atmds phere" begins with them. The mpst effective training that a little child can receive in the rudiments , of religious .education, should cornel from a loving mother and father, who practice hrfr.ftMgloTjB beliefs in their homes. Love for God and love for each other, evidenced 'in kindness, courtesy, ' unselfishness and generosity, will leave a deep impression on the life tof any child. . Parents should set the example. or their children in public wor ship. Too pftn parents jend their children to Sunday School, while they loll around the home, reading the Sunday newspaper, listening to tne radio or looking at television It is no wonder that th children soon rebel against being "sent" , to something in which, their .parents show no interest and value so little. Top pf ten, fiao, the Bible.is fcst a show piece in the family book case or on the living-ropto table, nearer opened until the pastor calls or some disaster occurs. Religl ous matters are never, mentioned in family discussions, unless in a critl cal tone, and God's name is never used, except as a ,urse prd. Thk shoMld ; sot be! Parents should "train up" their children in the way they should go. ap that when they are-pld, .ej.jrOJ .not depart irom that , way. Parents who would not think of neglecting , the educa tion of their chldren, who often sacrifice greatly rto provide the very best in the way of a college education, often never giye a second thought to their religious educa yon, .which vsj-fcy far, of more invr jortance to Aheir child. ' Law enforcement officials point to .the breakdown of the modern home as the direct .cause of our present-day juvenile dejinquency problem. -. Too many parents are .so conoerned With inaking a . living for. their children that tey are overlooking the more" Important task of, making a home -for -them. The late President Cool idge once "The true'eivic center of our mu nicipalities will be found, not in some towering edifice with state ly approaches, nor jn broad avenues flanked with-mal.icjept jnansions, but around the f " altar of . the American home, t .8 eoirce pf that strength which -s marked our national chaT'"1 v e, above tu else, is e1-- ' 1 .f ',h i t" things not r ni" , , Dm Ppd-vtbre..mtu Pi Uk to say to You. t that way lota of time.
