"We read recently in one of our v
ezchangs that the moral condition
of a certain town had become so '
bad that the mayor .of the town, '
appointed a committee of repre- .
sentative men and women to ,
work out a plan whereby t b ?
young could receive a moral up
lift. ;-' '.v'...
The conditions revealed by '
his co mmittee were really alarm
ing, and in their report they call-. !
ed upon parents to come to their1
aid. This is but a typical case.
From every quarter 'cornea the
cry the young are losing the
moral sense o f former' genera
tions, and that there is a loose
bess of conduct between t U M
sexes that is boubd to end ill
moral ruin. - .
This needed training cannot be
secured in schools or colleges, -however
Christian they may be,
because the mischeif is done be

the teachers. Of course t h fe
modern parent is not meant the;
parent whose god is the dollar of
society. What we need is the
ol4-fashioned father and mother.
The father who begins the day
with prayer around the family-
altar, and the mother who thinks
more of society of her children.
than of their neighbors; they are
the forces upon which we must ,
depend for this much needed,
moral uplift. '
Imagine the "Virtuous Woman1
described in Proverbs placed a-
mong the social life of this day.
