Harry Goold. commander of Medford Post 15, described this unusual program last weeK. em phasizing that "it is a program without any partisan or denom inational connections, and can be supported with equal esthusiasm by Protestants. Catholics and Jews." Purpose Told Goold said the purpose of the program is to awaken all citi zens, regardless of their station in life, or their religious affilia tions, to the need for "moral and spiritual consciousness on the part of our children, who are the citizens of tomorrow, and who will either fill important posi tions of leadership in the church, home, business and government, or else fall by the wayside, based upon the opportunities and guidance we afford them to un derstand their spiritual and moral responsibilities.'' Goold said, "No child has a chance who has not been taught to pray and love God," Goold continued. "No good citizen wants to place upon the brow of our children failure's crown of ihnrns. No narent should cruci fy the moral and spiritual life of a deserving child upon the cross of inactivity. No Influence The American Legion is dedi cated to God and to country. We do not attempt to influence the relieious teachings of any one, but we do beg of all gootf citizens that you aid in leaching all children religion. The teach ings should be in accordance with the belief of the responsible parties. The Legion is equally interested in seeing Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish children benefit from the teachings of their own respective faiths. The state and the nation will bene fit from all such teachings. There can be no world peace unless there be peace in our hearts. By supporting this program you are supporting a better Oregon and a stronger America. "The child whose spiritual and moral future is secured will help secure a better way of life for all, and that child should be your own," he said. Goold emphasized that al though the Legion has initiated and sponsored this program, all citizens and civic organizations are invited to participate. "We invite all good citizens who be lieve in God to support this emphasis on religion for the benefit of our children," he said. We will be surprised how much it will benefit us as well as the children. Start at home with this program, and it will gain mom entum because of its own strength and goodness," he concluded.
