With bad examples in high places, prevalence of gambling, liquor ads on every billboard and liquor on too many “smart” tables; with divorce almost as easy as mar riage and both as easy as whims; educated in elemen tary schools where It is considered wrong for the teach er to “fail” or pun ish any one, in high schools that em phasize the body more than the mind, and In colleges where coaches make more than professors and where (as two leading universities recently learned) almost half the student body, it seems, admits to cheating; living In a country where success is measured in dollars and where the Christian church is still In a minority: what chance has a boy or girl to grow up straight and strong instead of weak and crooked? « * « It Has Been Worse »|»HE best answer to this question ^ is that youth has always had a hard time of it, yet always there have been some who have grown straight and strong. If this 20th century is a bad one, what about the first? At that time there was CMtainly bad example in high places, con sidering that Nero was the em peror and that many persons actually worshipped that cmel scoundrel as a god. Gambling was done by the “best" people all over the Empire; liquor was even more a part of “high” so ciety than it is today; as for divorce and marriage, the Roman record was worse than ours; as fo.> educa tion, most young people didn’t get it, and most of those that did found themselves fitted for only one occu pation; politics. The Christian Church was in a far smaller minor ity than today. • • • The Bight Friends it was in that bad century ^ that some Uf the most famous Christian saints and heroes lived. Timothy, Paul's young understudy, was such a man. He had everything against him, but Paul thought well of him, and Paul's standards were extraordinarily high. His life (or what we know of it from the Scrip ture references to him) had many qualities worth studying. Let us look at two of the causes for this young man's high char acter. One was the quality of his friends. He seems to have been the sort of boy who might have gone down fast if he had taken up with the wrong crowd; but a list of his friends as we know them is a list of strong, original, true-blue Chris tians. He literally knew the best people, not “best” by standards of Roman society but best in the scale of true manhood. We have a bint, toa, thri his mother had something to do with this. She “steered” the boy to the right crowd, one suspects —^and that was enough. One of the best things parents can do for their children is to see to it that they run into, the right kind of people. This does not necessarily mean the richest or the best edu cated, but the people with the best kind of character. Youth will grow to be like the older people It most admires; and admiration grows with acquaintance. Tell me who a boy’s friends are and I can forecast his future. • • • Self Control T he other reason for Timothy’s character came from inside: self-discipline, self-control. Followers of these lessons may wonder why “temperance” has to be dragged in every once in so often. It’s not dragged in; we just dare not dodge it. Temperance just means self-control, in general. In particu lar, one of the drugs—by all odds the most popular drug—that tends to make the users lose self-control. Is alcohol. As the proverb has it; First the man takes a drink, then the drink takes a drink, and then the drink takes Rie man. Young people get more than enough urging to become alco holics. One of the best things one can do for yonnger friends is to awaken them to the real facts and dangers of an alco- holic beverages. There is a book, “Fruit of the Vine,” by Grace H. Turnbull, (print ed by the Lord Baltimore Press and published in 1950 at 223 Chancery Road, Baltimore 18, Md.) which is a mine of facts about liqour—^the kind of information you will not get in the advertisements. Young peo ple who learn these things the easy way (by reading such a book, for instance) may be saved the heart break of learning them the hard way.
