Mother's Day It's fine to set aside a day each year for honoring mother. She deserves it—and more. Her task is pretty rugged at best in spite of all the new inventions and devices aimed at making housework more simple. But even if all her household chores were done by machine or by helpful members of the family her job still wouldn't be easy. There's much more to it than routine things. More important is her service to her family as a counselor, confidant and comforter. She must help solve the puzzling problems of her children, settle their quarrels, guide them in their activities, point out the right and wrong way—and this goes on not merely while they're tots or teenagers but often long after they're grown. In addition to this she is often called upon to advise and counsel her husband on business matters and then, just to fill in her spare moments, she usually of the increase in taxation caused by greater government spending. Paying the tax bill has placed a constantly greater demand upon the citizen's pocketbook. Individual opportunity has receded from its crest in this country. Have the people lost sight of the great heritage left to them? Are they like the boy who was given full freedom in the candy store and consequently made himself sick by abusing it/ The American people are headed for a stomach-ache as they swallow bigger and bigger doses of socialism now being fed them in sugar-coated form by Washington politicians. Go To Sunday School It has become very popular to talk about the importance of saving our American way of life. As a matter of fact, the only way we can lose it is for the American people themselves to become so negligent in exercising the rights... She must help solve the puzzling problems of her children, settle their quarrels, guide them in their activities, point out the right and wrong way—and this goes on not merely while they’re tots or teenagers but often long after they’re grown. In addition to this she is often called upon to advise and counsel her husband on business matters and then, just to fill in her spare moments, she usually has a few problems of her own. Yes, mother well deserves her day. But we’ll do a lot more to really honor her by being considerate and doing what we can to help her all during the year. That will give Mother’s Day deeper and more practical meaning. White Cane Week, May 15-21 Buy White Cane Week stamps and help the blind to help themselves!

That freedom has permitted our citizens to mold their own destinies. As a result we are not only blessed with a fruitful life but have developed into a nation which more than any other follows the Golden Rule in the hope of helping others. But like a blight that threatens the mightiest stand of timber, socialism has been introduced in the United States. This type of governmentalism leads people to believe that they will be relieved of much of the burden of making a living—that the government will be able to produce and care for them. But no mention is made bigger and bigger doses of socialism now being fed them in sugar-coated form by Washington politicians. Go To Sunday School It has become very popular to talk about the importance of saving our American way of life. As a matter of fact, the only way we can lose it is for the American people themselves to become so negligent in exercising the rights and privileges they have under our form of government that the liberties they take for granted will go by default. We have to work at being Americans if we wish to perpetuate the blessings left to us by our forefathers. American parents must strive to help develop character in their children, which is necessary to combat enemies both from within and without our borders. The essential qualification for the perpetuation of our representative form of government is character, and that is developed on a foundation of religious teaching. National Sunday School Week is sponsored by the Laymen’s National Committee, a non-sectarian, non-profit organization created to bring about a better understanding of the important part religion has played in creating and maintaining our government. Helping develop character in children through some form of religious training cannot be delegated by parents to someone else. A good time to reawaken old-fashioned ideas is to go to Sunday School with the family, and thereby help counteract the teachings of alien, godless ideologies. TO OREGON AFTER TEN DAYS VISIT HERE Lt.
