am The Thoughts ot a Father
IN FACT THE THOUGHTS OF MANY FATHERS. Yes, the very
heart message of thousands of fathers who realize that "Home,
Sweet Home" is only an idle dream if proper provision has not been
made for the future care and welfare of the loved ones at home.
I AM THE VOICE OF THt THESE SAME FATHERS.-Their
thoughts, universally, are my thoughts. I speak of them and for
them. They have foreseen, as I have seen, the want, drudgery and
misery which attend neglect and lack of provision for the proverbial
"rainy day."
I
AM-THEVISDOMOE-THESE THOUGHTFUL-FATHERS
Their thoughts, in retrospection, recall the stern realities of life. I
have taught them that the first law of nature self protection is the
hw of love of preservation of life itself.
I AM THE EGO IN EVERY FATHER. Just selfish enough in my
love for the little homemaker and the babies to bestow upon them
a dowry, which will make them independentjmake their burdens light
er and give them an earthly estate which will not fade away when the
shadows of life are closing in.
I AM THE HOME PROTECTOR. I stand for the sanctity of the
home. I respect the home and loved ones. I insure happiness when
life's skies are gray. I meet life's obligations and assure contentment.
My hopes become realities.
