Show X TEST RUN, Friday, June 7, 1968 The Simon Legree Parents Medal Awarded to Sgt. In Army Reserve Soldier A U.S. 8 by Chap (LTC) William J. Bolt V cruel was father who of a unreasonably history his children was related by Elbert Hubbard in one of his books on philosophy. The father made a leather strap three feet long with leather tails on the end. With this ravage weapon he used to beat one or more of his ten children every day. Hubbard v; described the awful scene where the father punished his fifteen-- ' to- year old daughter. She had spent ten cents for a hair ribbon of-'; wear to church. He accused her of extravagance for the sake her pride. He struck the girl with the strap on the shoulders,.; arms, head, and hands. The attack was so vicious that the back, scratching and screaming. The mother came between the unreasonable father and the hysterical daughter and was felled;' by one of the blows and knocked unconscious. The terrified girl; had time to escape to the Hubbards. If the history of cruelty were ever written, it would fill many volumes and the largest section would be allotted to theO description of cruelty to children. In the past few years doctorsall over the country have noted the remarkable increase of child.; abuse in all quarters of our society. These Simon Legree parents. have not heeded the words of Scripture: BE NOT AS A LION;- -' IN THE HOUSE, TERRIFYING THEM OF THE HOUSEHOLD;- -; ; AND OPPRESSING THEM THAT ARE UNDER THEE. IN ANCIENT TIMES children were considered almost die;;: slaves of their parents and could be disposed of at will The Spar-tans left their deformed offspring out on the hills to die. The;; e Romans abandoned their unwanted children to the streets. familiar with die not so ancient stories of Chinese parentsX X throwing their excess babies into the Yangtze. With the spread of Christianity this attitude has changed.!; Christ warned against ignoring the rigjits of children: SEE THAT; YOU DESPISE NOT ONE OF THESE LITTLE ONES. From; Christs teaching of the equality of man before Cod, sprang all;; die later humanitarian efforts towards die welfare erf children. This teaching protected and developed by the Church forms the- - -basis of all our modem laws prohibiting the exploitation of minorsJ The cause of physical and moral damage done to children' by their own parents are numerous and complex, to be sure. However, a few are outstanding. Taking die lead among the causes is the ignorance and incompetency of the parents themselves. THERE IS NO CAREER in this world that people can and do enter with so little preparatory training as marriage and consequent parenthood. To become a doctor, teacher, lawyer, machinist, etc. all take training period of considerable time. But when it comes to young people getting ready to marry, meet at a dance, court for a few weeks or months, and without having sought counsel or even read a book about marriage, they nidi to die altar. They expect that the knowledge needed to manage a home and raise children properly will be gained by some process akin to A case Reserve Army sergeant has received the Soldiers Medal for risking his life by throwing a live hand grenade into an area where it exploded without harming anyone. The noncombat heroism award waa presented to Sgt. Louis J. DAloisio of Linden, NJ., for his action last spring on a grenade training range at Fort Knox, Ky. The sergeant was teaching Army trainees to throw live grenades when one recruit pulled the pin from a grenade and released the safety lever. "Then he Just froze, recalls. I ran over to him, physically tore it away from him and tossed it over the wall, and threw myself on top of him." The grenade exploded about 15 feet away, just over the protective wall on the training range. Sergeant DAloisio is a member of the 811th Regiment (BCT), 78th.. Division (Training). Maj. Gen. John G. Cassidy, commander of the division, said the sergeants act of heroism "honors ths Army Reserve and reflects credit upon all members of the Army Reserve.
