It has been made possible |
by sound thinking business
and professional men of
Cuero.
In this connection, we
would like to ask a ques-
tion.......

est involving a lawyer who is also
a public official.
"For these well known reasons,
lawyers so situated must volun-
have been criticized in recent
years for representing clients in
j their relations with state agen-
| cies. while at the same time serv-
ing in either House or Senate.
Failure to make such a dis-

Safety Education is the
Answer.
# ¥ ¥
Education in safety is es-
sential in the school pro-
gram. Children must be
taught safety if they are to
survive long enough to ful-
fill the State's required at-
tendance at school. There
is no choice left to school
authorities; children must
be taught how to protect
themselves in this modern
world. Safety educatiqn
moreover exemplifies the
philosophy of education to
which most of us subscribe.
The old idea that schools
exists soley as a preparation
for an adult life is
outmoded. Education today
must strive to enable child-
ren to live more effectively
each succeeding year, for
the entire period of life.
There should be no need for
wasteful adjustments and
painful re-adaptations in
later years when education
ceases to occupy all of the
child's time.
Children learn to do by
doing and they develop de-
sirable habits and attitudes
by experience. To learn, the
child must experience a sit-
uation. Therefore, safety
education offers abundant
opportunity for develop-
ing attitudes that permit
immediate protection to the
child, as well as offers ulti-
mate rewards.
The hazards of life are
ever-increasing. Safety ed-
ucation should aim to help
the child meet these emer- [
gcncies as they arise. Today
the bicycle and the motor
vehicle presents a great •
problem of safety to mil-
lions of American boys and
girls. These boys and girls,
in school safety programs
should * be permitted to
frankly plan and discuss i
this all-important phase of
their daily life. The proper
manner in which to operate
the under all conditions 1
n bicycle and a motor ve-
hicle under all conditions'
should be discussed. They
should be allowed to deve-
lop attitudes toward the
safe operation of their bi-
cycles as well as motor ve-
hicles and to form certain
routine habits that would
