THE GREATEST VALUE IX LIvE "For where your treasure is there will your heart be also." I Throughout his entire life the Mast-' er made clear the 1'act that the worth of a human soul was beyond price. Such statements as the following, "Thu.urh a man grain the whole world and lose his own soul what doth it i !-.,r;t him," leave us no room for ,! .uYi or. this question, j Anything that is produced has value only in terms of human lives and then only because there issome one to use it and appreciate it. All the moncv under heaven, all the exhibitions exhibi-tions 'of art in the world, countless numbers ' of the best libraries, colleges, col-leges, institutions of learning, and churehs are worthless unless they l find profitable use in some human life. Since these institutions are j thought of as our greatest treasures ! and can be produced only by human : beings, the human being at once if properly trained to produce becomes our greatest asset. Yet if he is neglected neg-lected and improperly trained he becomes be-comes our greatest liability- A case in point is that of young Hickman who to begin with, was reported talented and well educated yet who 'has cost the state of California and our nation without exaggeration enough to have taken one hnudred boys from the cradle and trained them in a select i environment until twenty-one years of age, making of them the best producers pro-ducers in our nation. Prevention is far better and less expensive than cure. The churches and Scout organizations are dosigno.-! to be institutions cf provrntinr. v;''" as cure. Does your boy need the-o helps? Let every live citizen let every mother and father see that their sons become an asset rather than a liability. Boost your Church and Scout organizations. |
