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. ♦ s4 l W»H v W | yi’4 i !-!'
