IMPROVING THE
EDUCATIONAL
PROGRAM
The wisest possible first step
—if this has not yet been taken
is to provide an adequate edu¬
cation foundation for the chil¬
dren. The omission of kinder¬
gartens preparation causes cas¬
ualties in every phase of school
endeavor and, later, in every
occupation that is undertaken.
If you would not send a man
to war without proper military
preparation, do not send a
helpless little child to do formal
grade work without kindergar-
ten preparation.
