Department of Mental Health PARENTS ARE MOTIVATORS You are important in your children’s education. It’s true today that many of the family’s func tions have been passed on to other institutions. The church has largely taken on religious education. Work is done outside the ■home. Formalized educa tion is carried out by pub lic schools—to give a few examples. But paren s are still su premely important in char acter development. The life values we help our young ones develop form the foundation for their evolving personalities . So, basically, there are two types of education— formal and informal. The child has two types of teachers. His parents in fluence him first; they are followed by -the more for jrnll, impersonal, public school teachers. In simple, tribal socie ties, these two types of teachers are combined. Very frequently parents carry out both roles. But in simple societies the need for education is limit ed. Parents are capable of teaching children the uncomplicated life tasks that are essential to the individual and his society. In a complex, industrial, urban society, such as our own, however, parents can only set the foundation of SHOP I. N. S. AT W. E. S.

But setting the foundation is all-important. A child is fortunate to have parents who appreci ate formal education, who understand the advantages that successful education can bring in modem so ciety, and who has had these feelings communicat ed to him informally be fore he reaches school age. Again, parents are acting as models for their young. When we are very young, our parents are our prin cipal source of attitudes toward things. If parents appreciate education, their children will learn to do so, also. Even if the parents themselves have not gone far in schooling if they understand how very im portant education is today and look forward eagerly with their young to their school entrance, they'll be giving a wise model. The school years cover a long period of time. A child can be miserable going through them if he has not learned to appreciate their value from the very start. Getting a good start in school, then, involves posi tive parental attitudes to ward education. It in volves a number of other things, also. THE CHOWAN HENALD. EDENTON. MOBTH CABOUNA, THURSDAY. JANUARY 19, 1969, It’s All Done With Mirrors A brass band once vis ited a small village, and the people were delighted with it, but they couldn’t make out the trombone, so they sent old Cyrus to in vestigate. Old Cyrus watched the performance of the trom bone player for some time. Then he said, with a sneer: "Take no notice of him, fellers. There’s a trick to it. He don’t swallow the durn thing.’’ Reprove a friend in sec ret, but praise him before others. —Leonardo Da Vinci.
