Thank you for saying you missed
this column last week. I*m sorry I
didn’t have time to write it, but (Feb
ruary was a very busy month. In
addition to my regular work we moved
our office. We are now in the office
formerly occupied by the' PMA, with
newly painted walls and we will be
delighted to have you come to see us.
Comments made by the people who
attended the joint meetings held in
each community in February indicate
their interest in the subject discuss
ed, which was "The Family Cycle”. I
don’t think they were only interested
in the flannelgraph that was used as
illustrative material, or the sound
movie, but the fact that it was a sub
ject that affects every individual and
every family. Its importance should
give it priority over many other
things that require our time. Helping
to develop people, and to build char
acter in girls and boy s through wise
guidance is a responsibility and privi
lege that should never be neglected.
The most important thing for parents
to do is training their children to meet
problems, and to help them build char
acter that will make them good citi
zens in the home, school, and com
munity.
Three basic requirements for happi
ness for every individual and for a
happy home: Security, Love and un
derstanding, Recognition for each
member of the family.
People who feel that only parents
should discuss Family life must re
member that every member of a fami
ly is an important member of that
group, and should be recognized. Since
I am a member of a family arid know
many of the problems, and much of th e
joys of family life, I realize the im
portance of happy ’homes as the foun
dation of our civilization. After the
children grow up and leave home
they realize this more than ever, and
cherish the memory of happy family
relationships.
Mrs. Corinne Grimsley, Extension
Fmily Life Specialist says there are
many factors that will help parents
build happy relationships with the
pre-school child.
As the children grow through the
early school years and through the
“topsy-turvy teens” each family
member has certain responsibilities
if there is to be a happy family life.
Tasks faced by the family as a
unit:
1. Cooperation in respecting fami
ly routines, such as dinner hour.
2. Cooperation in expenditure of
family money.
3. Respecting the rights of others:
compromise, consideration, family
teamwork.
4. Making family councils produc
tive and enjoyable.
5. Maintaining a home With good
emotional climate.
6. Sharing responsibility.
The most important thing for par
ents to do is training their Children
to meet problems, and to be good citi
zens in the home and community, and
to help them develop a healthy person
ality. This is a big order and for
parents who need or want assistant
there are many sources of informa
tion, books, bulletins, trained family
life counselors.
One of the contributions older peo
ple can make to their families and to
their communities is to show the rest
of the world that growing old isn’t
something to dread. These are the
years when “John and Mary” must
broaden tbeir horizon; find new in
terests and tasks; develop hobbies to
enrich their lives. They must prac
tice the art of growing older suc-

I This Week's Poem]
By WILBORNE HARRELL
* TICK-TOCK
Tick-tock,
/Night and day
The Pendulum swings
Our lives away.
To and fro,
The high and low,
From Tags to Crown
All life run s down.
A clock you wind
To make it run,
‘But life I find
Is quickly done.
When lives run. down
They can’t be wound
Like a clock,
Tick-tock,
Tick-tock.
cessfully, creatively, happily.
“May you live all the days of your
life,” and not just exist to find fault
if things are not just as you want
them.
If you have the habit of finding
fault with others or your lot in life
perhaps this quotation will make you
want to break this habit:
“Nothing is easier than fault-find
ing. No talent, no self-denial, no
brains, no character are required to
set one up in the grumbling busi
ness.”
When we’re inclined to be selfish,
thinking only of ourselves, the fol
lowing poem might help us:
“Not as we take, but as we give;
Not as we pray, but as we live;
These are the things that make for
peace,
Both now and after time shall cease.”
