A place for everything and everything in its place makes
sense for any kitchen. It’s even more important for the
elderly. A well-designed kitchen with durable, easily-
accessible cabinets that bear the certification seal of the
National Kitchen Cabinet Association is a step in the
right direction.
In every area,
there is one bank
that stands out
above all the rest.
In East Texas,
that bank is the
Citizens First National
Bank of Tyler.

GIVING OUR. KIDS A GOOD CLUBBING
Today's kids heed a good clubbing.
Does that
rampant?
statement shock you, with child abuse so
Or do you think a "good clubbing" is the only way to dis-
cipine young people, especially those involved in crime and
delinquency?
There IS another kind of clubbing, however — that given
by the Boys' Clubs of America.
To 1,100 Boys' Club affiliates across the country, a good
clubbing means:
* Close to 4,000 professional youth workers providing
daily guidance and role models as full-itme Boys' Club staff
members.
* More than 132,000 citizens volunteering time and talent
as Board members or program aides.
* Thousands of teenagers sharing job experiences through
Boys' Club "World of Work" programs.
* Neatly 500,000 children receiving annual health check-
ups.
* Reducing delinquency rates by as much as'50% in some
Boys' Club communities.
It also meeans that over one million youngsters benefit
from leadership training, child care, family counseling, guid-
ance, sports, crafts — any service judged as critical for the
positive development of a community's youth.
Unfortunately, such successful developmental programs re-
ceive less attention than child abusers and criminals. Despite
the fact that Boys' Clubs have served youth for more than one
hundred years, a 1975 Gallup poll proved that less than half
the American public ever knew of their existence.
March 27 through April 2 is National Boys' Club Week.
Leading youth advocates and law enforcement officials state
that Boys' Clubs are one of the most effective youth guidance
organizations in our nation.
Let's give some attention to the kind of clubbing that has a
lasting impact on youth — the good clubbing they get through
the Boys' Clubs of America.
