Where am I falling my child?

Or am I doing too much for
him?
What parent hasn’t asked
himself that question again and

Welfare, Abraham Rublcoff,
says that all parents must take
their share of the blame for the
lndlffomnee of the American
people toward education.
It la with this thought ln
mind that the local Parent-
Teacher committee on parent
education has developed a
twelve hour study course for all
