education is the rightful heritage of
childhood, which can be assimilated
at but one time in the life of an in-
dividual. Dr. John Finley, editor of
the New York Times, recognised the
binding nature of this obligation
when he said, “In times like these
when sacrifices must be made and
economies must be practiced, noth-
ing should be allowed to interfere
with the payment of the state's full
debt to the children and youth of
the land.”
Over one thousand social, educa-

Uck of public school education for
their children. When at last victory
smiled on our arms at San Jacinto
and the fathers of the state met to
consider a constitution for the inde-
pendent state of Texas, provisions for
a free school education for the chil-
dren of the commonwealth were
written into our first code of law.

nlzes that all children, under what-
ever conditions of life they may have
been brought into the world, should
share equally in the rich inheritance
of their fathers.
The Conference on Child Welfare
decided “The state must guarantee
for every child: First, a school safe
from hazards, sanitary, properly
equipped, lighted, and ventilated, and
for younger children nursery schools
and kindergartens to supplement
home care. Second, an education
which, through the discovery and
development of his individual abili-
ties, prepares him for life; and
through training and vocational gut
dance prepares him for a living which
will give him the maximum of satis-
faction. Third, such training and
learning as will prepare him for suc-
cessful parenthood, home-making,
and the rights of citizenship. The
nation owes every child these rlght3
regardless of race or color or situa-
tion, wherever he might live under
the protection of the American flag."
