Parents' Duty to Prepare Them
With Wise Counsel for
Their College Life..
NEED OP RIGHT SCHOOL
The hand on the clock of the year
has moved close to that point, where
the hour will strike for the opening
of the schocjls and colleges and uni
versities throughout the land.
It is a portentous time. And upon
the choices that are made by parents
nd children at this time very much
depends.
A wise choice backed by good
judgment, thorough analysis of the
characteristics and tastes and needs
of the young man or youg woman will
bear its good fruits through a success
ful and satisfactory year It is of
supreme importance that the right in
stitution be chosen for the future
springing of the young :dea, the con
tinued development of th muntal
moral and physical well-being of the
youth and maiden. For these are most
important years of the young man's
and young woman's life This for
several reasons.
Up to this time, in thm firct ttt
the years of life have been prepara-
Y'w " wcrc ana Jnn and Julius
and Mary and Mabel sm tn h i; tu
rn ore than the children they were
wncii mcy iirsi started to school.
It would hardly be juat to say they ar
little more than that In some waya they
nave advanced far In the formation of
wwk inrauiers. nut tneir lives up to this
time have been pretty much the same. They
have gone to school and the only definite
chante that has marked the years has been
the breakln of the trade school ties and
the entrance Into the halls of the high
schools.
Aa Important Step.
But now comes a great change, the most
portentous step that has yet been taken
in the life of your budding mari and
woman. They are going away from home.
They are breaking homo ties. They are leav
ing the city or town or farm, where their
own people live and are going to some more
or less distant place, where they must
stay for a week or months or possibly the
entire year before they see home again.
They are going, moreover, to a school
where very likely they will see none but
unfamiliar faces. They are going to be
thrown Into an institution filled with peo
ple they have never seen before.
It Is a situation that calls -for the best
that Is in the young man and woman.
Homesickness Is pretty sure to come. How
will they endure it? Bravely and sensibly
and hopefully, knowing and realising that
from such unpleasant things bravely borne
the strong character of the best man or
woman Is developed? Or weakly and wav
erlngly 7
Duty of Parents.
Parents can do much to guarantee the
brave endurance of the first few unpleasant
weeks at the college or university. First,
they can choose a school which will be most
congenial. This they must decide for them
selves by a careful contemplation of the
tastes of their children and a careful com
parison of the advantages of the various
schools to which they might be sent. '
Then, also, much can be dona to mi
youth started right by a plain, "heart-to-heart"
talk before he or she starts away, a
talk expressing a parent's confidence in the
manliness and womanliness and Independ
ence and sound sense of the prospective
student. ,
Thus the loneliness of the first few weeks
Is discounted beforehand and prepared for
and understood when It comes.
.After the first month the student becomes
adjusted to hts new life, forms friendships
and is beginning to become attached to the
school with that attachment to his alma
mater which endures through life.
