NEED OF RIGHT SOHOOL The hand on the clock of the year has moved close to that point, where the hour will strike for the opening of the schogls and colleges and uni- versities throughout the land. It is a portentous time. And upon the choices that are made by parents and children at this time very much depends. g 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 the mental, 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 sev{;ral reasons. p to this time, in the first place, the years of life have been prc%ara—' tory, as it were: and John and Julius and Mary and Mabel seem to be little more than the children they were when they first started to school. It would hardly be just to say they ar little more than that. In some y"l)'lylhe; have advanced far in the formation of their characters. But thelr lives up to this time have been pretty much the same. They have gone to school and the only definite change that has marked the years has been the breaking of the grade school tles and the entrance into the halls of the high schools. An Important Step. But now comes a great change, the most portentous step that has yot been taken.| in the life of your budding man' and Woman. They are going away from home. They are breaking homo ties. They are leav- ihg the city or town or farm, where thelr own people live and are going to some more or less distant place, where they must stay for a week or months or pe ly the entire year before they see home a; N They are going, moreover, to school where very likely they will see none but unfamillar 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 realizing that from such unpleasant things bravely borne the strong character of the best man or woman {s developed? Or weakly and wav- eringly ? 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 & &chool 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 done to get the 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 his new life, forms friendships and is beginning to become attacPed to the school with that attachment to his alma mater which endpres through life.
