Ideas and Instruct . ! . . . . . . ...... in him in in in in in hi hi hi m i iü hi hi hi hi hi i n i in m n in i mi in m m mm hi Most of the things that really mat ter in your life and mine are events that took place before we were born. Whether we are rugged or frail, rich or poor, happy or miser- able result in large part from de cisions and struggles that somebody made long ago. The old saying. “ Life is what you make it," is only parity true. Life is what you make it from what you had to begin with. Of course men and women are free moral agents and can do a great deal with their own lives if they will, but departed years in fluence every generation. They af fect everybody more or less and have more to do with some people's lives than the people themselves. In order to take from the past what helps us and avoid what hinders, men have to study history and learn its good from its bad. A Patriotic Duty American history, and I don't mean a sketchy catalog of wars and elections, should be a required study in every American school. How can the youth of the United States be proud of this country's success and prosperity without some knowledge of the background that made it suc cessful and prosperous? Decisions and struggles out of which our in stitutions have grown will tell the important “ why’’ of America’s pow er in the world. Many encouraging stories have come back from the European thea tre of war recently. Not one of them has shed more hopeful light on Am erica’s future, however, than a feature article in the New York Times relating that American sol diers in many foreign lands are call ing tor books on American history. They want to know what makes them different from people they see over there. What Do We Have? The article quoted a Pennsylvania buck private as saying. "Something In our history makes us different. Why aren’t we taught about it at school?” It is my sincere hope and belief that this soldier’s children will be taught more about it at school. At least I hope we don’t have to wage a foreign war every quarter of a century so our sons can go see how bullied and comparatively poor other people are. Our fighters have begun to real ize that something goes on in Amer ica which encourages and promotes I better living than people in foreign countries can enjoy. Farmers’ sons In the invasion can’t help but see that France, for example, has fer tile soil, favorable seasons, and abundant crops but poverty stricken people. There's a reason. It’s a long story but an Interesting one. An Educator's Job Undoubtedly Uncle Sam has some tall, blonde fighting men who used to say, proudly, “ My grandfather came from Prussia.” But when they get back they will be ready to add, “ Leaving that past-blighted coun try was the smartest thing the old gentleman ever did. It gave him a chance, and me too.” History shows how taxes and customs and castes keep many a noble race of people hungry most of their lives. I wish I might plead with every honest teacher to help keep the United States an oasis in this des ert of human oppression. An im personal, objective attitude is ad mirable until it points toward slav ery. If it forbids telling students that representative, constitutional government is better than dictator ship, or that a successful economic system like Private Enterprise Is better than communism, let's tell the truth even if we have to be un orthodox.
