Those “dear old Golden Rule
days" are here again, The boys:
all have.their new jeans and the
young ladies have their new
wardrobe. Mother is exhausted
and the family pocketbook is in
bie co too. th the big yelses are ro! again and
Mother can relax. .
Wouldn't it be nice to go back
to the Golden Rule days again and
I don't mean be young again.
If our laws keep getting more
encumbered with whereases and
such, which seem to make them
easier to break, we may have
to return to the Golden Rule
again to avoid becoming anation
governed by lust and greed. But
for now its the "School Days"
of the old song we are primarily
concerned with the pressing
problems of the very young.
‘ I wish I could believe in the
generation gap everyone talks
about. It makes a marvelous excuse for just about every shortcoming large or small. But you
know I think our youngsters are
very much the same as young .
people ‘always were. Their material advantages and temptatioris make help over the rough
spots and wise guidance around
the pitfalls a must. But this has
been a "must", for the learning
ages, since the time of Socrates
the great teacher, about 470 BC.
Socrates favorite expression
was "Kaw thyself." His most
famous pupil, Plato, ence said
"Until philosophers are kings —
cities will never cease from ill,
nor the human race," Provided
with a good set of values, like
the: ones Socrates gave to Plato
that "the good and the intelligent
are identical concepts," our
youngsters will move _ their
mountains just as every generation has since Socrates time.
However this good set of.values
is going to have to be learned
at, or even occasionally over,
the family knee. The little space
age school house these days
only seems: to be interested in
developing SUPER people with
@ BIG flair not THINKING peox
ple who want to build a BETTER
world. This has happened many
times since Socrates time and
will unfortunately probably happen many more. Anyway the big
yellow buses are rolling again.
But Mother please don't relax
too much,

Forgive the foregoing diatribe. I knew I had been feeling
dreadful and besides the beginning of school always makes me
think too much. Maybe it's because I studied to be a teacher
and maybe it’s just the questions in those eager young faces,
I see by the dictionary diatribe
means "a bitter and violent denunciation." I only meant to be
thinking on paper. I guess my
mind needs he rg fresh air.
The beginning of school, always ends. a round of family
type vacationing. One of my
young nieces from down San
Diego way and her family visited
us. My two grandnieces ages
seven years and nearly five
years spent most of their time
collecting rocks, Mother helps
with the cementing and they
make all kinds of familiar animals — dogs, fishes, turtles
and rabbits to name a few. Each
rock was carefully selected,
washed and packed in a box,

Another of my grandnieces, who
lives in Hawaii, sends them
coral and shells which they use
in making Sea Dioramas. Their
interest has lasted over a year
now, so according tothe thinking
of the little space age school
house, they. must be jearning
many things. At least they were

The Olson's children are a bit
too young for school. Christine
is only three yéars and Kenneth
just seven months, but father attorney Ted Olson had to get back
on the job. The Olsons plan to
return for a family reunion at
Christmas time,
