By B. F. COEN.
If thousands of parents must give up sons to make the world safe so ' democracy, shall not other thousands of parents give up sons and daugh ters to the high schools and colleges of the country, to prepare to do i great service during the remainder of the war and during the reconstruc tion period after the war? Never in the world’s-history have parents hat a greater opportunity to aid. in the world’s betterment. Of course with your son or daughter kept from school or college, ant thereby missing the opportunity for greater service, it would not mak< any great difference, but with thousands of parents deciding as you decide with the same reasons, we might lose all that we are fighting for. Many parents this fall will make unusual sacrifices in order to sent their rem and daughters to high school and college, but there will be grea joy in the sacrifices. " „
