Prayer Of The Week - - -
The prayer this week is by the Rev. David McKinney,
D.D., Cincinnati, Ohio:
“Our Father, we thank Thee for Thy goodness to
us during the night. Thou hast watched over us whilst
we slept. Now we pray Thee to guard and guide us
through this day. May Thy presence be with us. As
our day, so may our strength be.
‘Wednesday, August 5, 1964

“May Thy love be in our hearts and manifest in
our conduct. Enable us to resist evil, to endure trial,
to overcome difficulties, and in all things to do Thy
will. Whatsoever our hands find to do, may we do it
with our might.
“Keep us from becoming discouraged.” May Thy
joy be our strength. May we not grow weary in well-
doing. May Thy Word be a lamp to our feet and a
light to our path. Keep our hearts and minds. May
we think of the things which are pure and lovely and
of a good report. Supply all our needs this day. Make
all things work together for our good. We ask in Jesus,
name. Amen.”

by Dr. Geo. W. Crane
The Worry Clinic
Among the 2,000,000 high schoolers I have addres-
sed in recent years, the most common question arising
in our forum discussions is this: “Dr. Crane, what do
you think about the idea of going steady in high school?
Psychologists, Judges, Counsellors on family problems,
all agree on the facts below, so get hep, teen-agers;
CASE P-405: When Leo Sullivan asked me to address
the six high school assemblies in Peru, Indiana, and sur-
rounding area, I received many questions from the teen-
agers.
“Dr. Crane,” came a constant query from every high
school group, “is it wise to go steady while in high school?”
No. for those who want to
go steady usually are some- |
what cowardly. For they are
afraid to take a chance on
NOT being invited to a dance
or school event.
So they sell out, like Biblic-
al Esau, for the lazy comfort
of always having a date for
every school activity.
But they cheat themselves
and here’s why:
(1) Teen-agers are supposed
to acquire a wide social ex-
perience and learn how to a-
dapt to the various types of
personality in the opposite
sex.
Thus, when a girl goes
“steady” she loses some of
this social adaptability.
Besires, she may often
wish she could date a new-
comer to the school, but she
is left alone, like poison, by
the other boys.
(2) Those who go
tend to degenerate

into a
stodgy relationship. And this |

“We're almost the same as
married,” is the theme that
many such boys will preach,
so such a couple is much
more likely to indulge in il-
licit affairs.
Beware, for a much larger
number of unwed mothers

among the teen-agers. who
go steady.
[3) Those who go steady
are far more likely to marry
young. If they aren't forced
into a wedding before gradu-
ation, they may marry with-

mencement.
Yet the average boy of 18
or 19 is obviously not equip-
ped to support a wife and
children in this competitive
modern age.
For he has no trade or pro-
fession, so he must pick up
any laboring job available.
So he and his wife start
out with a serious financial
handicap. They hardly get
started making payments on
furniture and a jalopy till
the first baby arrives.
Then doctor bills, hospital
expenses, and numerous oth-
er demands keep them con-
stantly broke and quarreling
over money matters.

times like other young folks?

The fact they brought
their unhappy marital ar-
rangement on themselves
then makes them gripe at
government and demand
more welfare checks.
Then with their ballots
they try to make up for their
former lack of brains as they
expect Uncle Sam to coddle
them in easy luxury.
Actually, they were cow-
ards in high school or they
would have played the field
instead of taking the line of
least resistance and thus go-
ing steady.
So look ahead. Have en-
ough guts to play the field.

best interests of your future
children at stake.
You high school juniors
and seniors “make your own
bad”, as the old proverb
states.
You can marry young and
lead an impoverished, cat-
and-dog existence or use your
brains and set up a happy,
secure family life. But it is
YOUR decision, so get hep.

NO “ICE BOX DRAIN" FOR DEFROST WATER!
In many frostless refrigerators you’ll find an
old-fashioned “ice box drain” for defrost water
under the crispers. But not in Kelvinator! A
special tube carries this water down the outside
of the cabinet to the evaporator pan. It never
runs down the cabinet wall—has no chance to
contaminate food.
SAVE UP TO $1.41 A MONTH! .
In test after test Kelvinator ‘“No-Frost’” has’
proven to be far more economical to operate
than other types of systems. You can actually,
save up to $1.41 on your electric bill every,
month! And there’s far less to go wrong because
Kelvinator uses one trouble-free system for both
refrigerating and removing frost.
