America’s Future Rests With School Generation rtf- Must Not Relax’ De c|ares Publisher Of Par ents’ Magazine ... gEORGE J.

Never be everx ' a ,rue sense of values— fnre “tl to and understanding of ieV“tl°ir country stands for—been ,liat „,.tant to our national life, 50 survival of all that we and we l Vnever before have parents ^\;liers faced a more definite <J.Cr, to make this a part of ‘Vocational and parental guid tUJc, America’s children. Kt must not for an instant relax * educational standards or our Vance as to the. physical and re‘tal well-being of the coming "Lation of Americans. T)1C importance of the children are returning to the school 0ver the country is even V,',. if possible, than ever be W in our history. ’ This importance has been magni fy ten.fold by the false education ,‘hich is being forcibly taught to ,jf young people of the aggressor nations. G their young are being taught to worship the state, blindly and Without reason, so must Young America be taught to appreciate ,j‘l understand the true meaning of Democracy—a heritage which has been handed to them by the blood ami toil, courage and devotion of t.eir forefathers. Today our schools shoulder a tre mendous responsibility. They must teach and educate along multiple lines. With Arithmetic. English and Science they must teach tolerance, devotion to duty, and love of coun try As they teach vocations, bo must they teacli good health habits how to work, what to eat, how to grow into the finest type of citizen. The schools of America are com munity centers for war work. By sponsoring conservation of mate rials. encouraging the buyer of war bonds and stamps, acting as centers for the voactional training and guidance of adults, and lending their facilities to their communities for various phases of community activity, they are passing on to their students the true meaning of civic obligation and useful civic life. Students of today are the leaders of tomorrow. All we are able to give to them now will be reflected in later years in the manner in which they take over the affairs of the Nation as it makes its adjust ments to a post-war world. As the school bell rings in a new school year, let us send our children to their work well nourished phys ically and mentally, and with a feeling of security and confidence, assured that life goes c« and grows more interesting despite the great tasks which are set before us to trove our mettle and right of sur vival. Then the future of America will rest in safe hands. ROOM ALL HIS OWN A. room a child can call his own i> a sure way of helping to develop individuality.

S. Office of Education, on submission of estimates. Loans from Uncle Sam himself to students who register in accele rated programs being conducted by degree-granting college or univer sity, will be made in cases where their technical or professional ed ucation can be completed in two years. Required Courses The students must be register ed in one of the following fields: Engineering, Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Veterniary Dentistry or Pharmacy. The plan is operating jointly through the U. S. Office of Educa tion and the War Manpower Com mission and emphasizes most strongly the oft-expressed belief that the college youth of today can make no better contribution to the war effort and to the future of the ration than by preparing them selves intensively for the vast number of jobs in technical and professional fields that will need filling from now on through the coming peace. Students who make applications for the loans must agree to con tinue their studies until otherwise directed by War Manpower Com mission officials, and to engage in the work for which they are study ing The students will sign notes per sonally, upon obtaining the loans, and the notes will be payable to the Treasurer of the United States. Cancellation Provisions Provisions for cancellation of the student’s indebtness are made in the event of major changes in sta tus that are beyond his control. One specific provision for cancel lation is made in the event the student is drafted into the armed services. This is probably the most direct and ambitious activity ever engag ed in by the United States gov ernment to help individual stu dents ready themselves quickly for jobs that will no doubt exceed even the capacity of this program to fill them. -V Sound Sleep Is Factor In Good School Grades Good, sound, restful sleep, night in and night out, is an essential in gredient of the healthful physical and mental development of the growing school child. First caution is to guard the youngsters against over - exciting radio programs during the evening. No stimulating drinks or beverages should be permitted during the eve ning, either, and care should be exercised to see to it that the room in which the child sleeps is well ventilated. Matha Alden, Sleep Consultant for Pequot. urges that mothers maly? sure sheets are firmly tucked in and all wrinkles smoothed out: that the bed be aired and made freshly every day that the mattress be turned every week, that sleeping garments be loose and comfortable. College Requirement College entrance requirement: this Sacson classic with launder able dickie and cuff6. Its teca yarn and rayon fabric promises warmtli without weight'—to save wool. Equally fitting for high school. ON THE FASHION HORIZON Brother-Sister act for back to school performance. Suits with blazer jackets, fashioned of soft Botany flannel favor trimly tailor ed lines, and lots of warmth-giving quality. Brother turns his shirt collar over a cardigan neckline; sister likes the added detail of notched lapels.
