(Continued from page 1)
values and define our life objec
tives,” Bowen said, “I believe that
the fabulous economic progress
of the United States has been
based largely upon education.”
“Our kind of economic system
was built largely through educa
tion,” stated Bowen. “Machines
are rapidly taking over the tasks
that were once done by unskilled
human beings and usually do it
better. Consider the jobs that used
to be done by men and that are
now done by machines, for exam
ple, ditch-digging, road-building,
weaving of cloth, corn-picking,
sawing of lumber, and even book
keeping.
“But to build, service, and oper
ate machines requires scientists,
engineers, mechanics and skilled
operators. There is virtually no
place in our economy for people
who do not have at least the
abilities to read and write, and
certain qualities of responsibility
and self-discipline.”
One of the greatest opportuni
ties and obligations of a rich ad
vanced nation such as ours is to
assist the more backward peoples
of the world in overcoming hunger
and misery, Bowen said.
“It is obvious that our aid to
others should be ip the form
primarily of helping them to help
themselves and not in the form
of direct relief having little sig
nificance for long-range improve
ment,” Bowen pointed out.
“It is not enough for us merely
to spend our money and to ship
our goods abroad. We must also
send our people out as educators
and technical consultants.
“One of the greatest opportuni
ties open to our young men and
women today is to devote their
lives to the advancement of under
developed peoples of the world.
This in tuim requires the learning
of languages, the understanding
of foreign cultures, and above all
the willingness to serve in a spirit
of respect for one’s fellow men
and a humble willingness to learn
from them as well as teach them.
“But education,” Bowen con
cluded, “is the key not only to
economic growth but also it is the
key to the good life.
“When it is realized that edu
cation is good in itself, without
reference to economic objectives,
the case for a massive expansion
of our whole educational effort be
comes overwhelming.”

THE CHURCH FOR ALL . . .
ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor on
earth for the building of character and
good citizenship. It is a storehouse of
spiritual values. Without a strong
Church, neither democracy nor civiliza
tion can survive. There are four sound
reasons why every person should at
tend services regularly and support the
Church. They are: (1) For his own sake.
(2) For his children’s sake. (3) For the
sake of his community and nation. (4)
For the sake of the Church itself, which
needs his moral and materia! support.

Mommy said that this year I could help trim the
tree, if I’d be very careful. The ornaments are so
shiny and bright, and it’s such fun to decide where
to put them.
Mommy let me help fix our little creche, too. I put ‘
in the figure of the Christ Child and He looked so
pretty ... all sort of pink and gold.
We fixed the creche first because Mommy said that
we must always remember that Christmas is, first of
all, the Christ Child’s birthday. When we finish trim
ming the tree, Mommy is going to read us the story
about the first Christmas . . . about the shepherds
and the angels . . . about the Wise Men and their star
. . . about the little Jesus, born in Bethlehem, in
a manger.
Mommy’s told me the stoi’y before but she says
that this year I’m big enough to stay up with the rest
and hear her read it. And, of course, we’ll go to Church,
and Mommy says I can carry my fur muff.
I think, this is going to be the best Christmas I’ve
ever had!
