Children on the Farm We would not dispute the pro priety of excusing children Irom rural school.- to permit them to as sist i:i the harvesting of crops. Un less 'he cr .p- are saved there will be greater .-ufloring .11 the land 111 m will result from the loss ol .1 few days from cla.-s rooms at this par ticular time. I.ut while this is ever lastingly true, the tact -liould not he lost sight of that the young people are deserving "I an education, aiulj should he withdrawn Iroin their | studies only as .1 last resort. It would be .1 grave error to seize I upon the crisis of 'he hour to relieve the children of their .-chool dtilio-.) Most parents will take that view of j the emergency, we believe. They J are undoubtedly .■» anxi'.us as can. be that their boys and girls shii'.j have every educational facility open to them. Where classes are missed they ought to be made up in some man ner. A day in school that is lost and not recovered i.s gone forever. A child could make an extra year to catch up. but that would be a year thai properly should be de voted to tasks of later adolescence. To what extent young people are being taken from school to help on the farm in this county, or for that matter in the State as a whole.' wc confess not to know. It may not be critical but appears to be sufficient ly serious to be claiming attention. Save the crops by all mean', but with the saving it will be the part of wisdom to bear in mind always the welfare of the child and the in fluerce on his future lile that will result from loss of time in school in the tinder years.
