bragging; to my prejudices and battle for esteem. But I could look on my flaws with Jenny's eyes and thereby edit and lessen them. Now that Jenny is 18, she has less to teach me. She is coming to Broadway in a play called "Simone." She plays the part in it of a little girl in the France of 1942 who dreams that she is Joan of Arc. Watching her rehearse, noting her devotion to her first big theatrical chore, my heart applauds something other than her talent as an actress. I note in the 18-year-old-Jenny that her childhood is still half her soul, that its ways still guide her. And I have one deep wish for her—that she remain herself rather than change into an adult who never knew her. I have written sincerely, for I think one of the world's chief sicknesses is its divorce from the memory of youth. I have an increased faith in the prospect of peace because our President has two young children. What fine collaborators for a statesman! Two wells of truth, two admirers of life, two aficionados of sky, sun, moon, wind, and earth. TO SUM UP—instead of us adults tackling the problem of how to raise our children, a more profitable activity lies in letting our young ones lure us out of our habits of mis-living. I imagine that I taught Jenny many things during her first 10 years. She was an accomplished eavesdropper, which is always an important branch of learning for the young. But her return instruction makes us even as educators. I'm sure that mothers of girls will find my "revelation" naive. For good mothers enroll automatically as pupils of their children and keep young and wise by basking in the spirit of their offspring. My message, however, is not for them. It's for fathers. It's this—note your daughter's virtues—the ones you had no hand implanting in her. Observe her superior use of daylight, her disdain for cluttering her head and heart. Take heed of her childhood, and you will find she has vastly more to give you than you have to offer her. "Class dismissed," says Jenny, "and stop mooning about childhood. We both have a play to get going on the stage. And I'd appreciate your most adult aid."

if you love children

If you love children, your heart will go out to Tommy Littleraven, a 9-year-old American Indian boy who is attending school off the reservation for the first time. Going to school in town frightens Tommy. He is afraid that his non-Indian schoolmates are laughing at his tattered clothing, at his faulty English. He yearns to join the school club, to buy personal books, clothing, go out for a soda with the other boys. But his parents are too poor to give him pocket money. And so Tommy wanders off by himself and dreams that someday he will have the money to do what his non-Indian schoolmates do. if you love children Make a dream come true! You, your school or group can make this dream come true for an Indian child like Tommy.
