Edu- cation can no longer be restricted to the child from the age of six to seventeen in school. Eves formal schooling is being extend- ed to the pre-school child and the adult. Not all knowledge, not all learning, certainly not wisdom comes from the school. What we have learned on the mother's knee, what we have acquired in the family circle, in the commun- ity, at work, among our friends and neighbors, from the books and newspapers we read, from the radio and moving pictur;is and the infinite number of other educational opportunities that are natural to life, all of these are even more significant.

September II The Jewish family, traditional- ly and historically, has been the source of great educational and ethical-moral training. There must be a renascence of family life, and the disintegrating forces within the society must be com- batted by the unified strength fif family ties and tradition. We may yet face the great educational revival in which education will no longer be conceived in the restricted sense of teaching, in- struction and training. We must reek the development of those ethical-moral principles and pat- terns of behavior which are of the highest good, through persoli- to-person relationships, social ex- periences, the solution of com- munity problems, and mutual aid. We are producing armaments on a staggering scale. We must and can produce intellectual and moral honesty, personal convic- tion and individual growth of a corresponding greatness. The powers of the human mind and the resources of wealth must devoted to the elimination of the causes and amelioration of the conditions not only of the unfor- tunate and afflicted, but of everyman. The great American public school educator, Horace Mann, said in his parting words to the students of Antioch Col- lege, of which he was president. "Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for hu- manity." The Nov Year must bring with it a desire in each one of us to win something for humanity. No matter how small the victory each of us will win, the accumulation will result in a victory for man- kind. Sam Co. MT. CLEMENS, MICH. Miller Bros. Creamery Co.
