We've heard it said, “You can only see in Boston what you take with you to Boston” - That’s a true statement a- about Europe, Philadelphia or any other place one choos- es to visit on his travels. Boys and girls who go wil- ly nilly off on extended jun- kets — generally speaking—— are no more ready mentally, or emotionally to absorb culture in a foreign land than the astronauts are ready to spend a long weekend on the moon — as close as that unbelievable feat actually may be. We read recently how one father wished he could schedule his youngster’s sum- mer vacation. - He believes that it might cost him some money, one way or another. But, not as much as a tour of Europe. It is his belief that his boy would see more, absorb more, learn more, retain more and profit more if his proposal could be followed. This particular father is a © man deeply involved in the printing industry. Therefore, his “assignments” tend to place the boy into jobs the father knows have proved values. These jobs very well can be translated into others which “similarly emphasize the rough, the tough, the hard, the heartbreak, the frustration, the headache, the poverty, the disease, the hurt, and the dozens of other areas of nitty-gritty life which teenagers of the afflu- ent society too often do not see or experience. : They see their fathers come home from the shop, store or office tired, worn to ‘the bone and irritable, but they do not fully understand why" from responsibility, then Ath- ens ceased to be free and nev- erwas free again.” It happened to Athens.

Reprinted Wall Street Journal Oct. 25, 1968: With all the talk about guaranteed” annual incomes and cradle-to-.grave security it might be well -to take a look at what the historian and scholar Edward Gibbon wrote many years ago about the ancient Athenians. Once the center - of the - civilized world, Athens went on the skids and never again rose te its previous position of rel- ative importance to other na- tions. : Wrote Gibbon, “In the end, more than they wanted free- dom, they wanted security. They wanted a comfortable life and they lost it all—sec- urity, comfort and freedom.
