Howe. That sounds like an Abe Martin \ paragraph. It has a whole sermon ] boiled down. < School children in town don't usu- ! ally advance in their books as rapid- j ly as school children in the country, j and this is probably the reason. There J are so many things to keep the child < excited over; so many places to go; < so many activities to take part in. \ The country boy, if he's lucky, may < go to school half the time, or a third * of the time, and when he becomes a 4 man he goes to town and takes the i place of the boy who had to go to < school from the time he was six until 4 be is grown. Hence the country boys < are running the big industries, the < big institutions, and holding the big 4 political jobs.

That is the cause of many ac cidents. . Unfortunately, for many children, the streets are the only possible ' playgrounds, and it is difficult?but not impossible?to keep them on the SMtimfici Parents can do much to accidents by insisting on their ?
