There are slrange forces ar work in The world Today - forces lhal seem lo be gradually and insidiously Trying +o deslroy our American schools. Our Chrislian schools are nor escaping lheir ellecrs, eilher. They are represenled by apalhy, lelhargy, disinleresl, and unconcern inslead ol progress in lhose herilages which we possess. They are evidenl by The apparenl laclc ol a sense ol responsibilily on lhe parl ol loo many peo- ple. , Our Chrislian herilage we lcnow was noi earned by lhese alliludes. ll was gained and developed by The pioneering spiril ol our lore-lalhers, who were willing To lace, and conquered, all oloslacles in Their palh lhrough lailh. Those Chrislian liberlies and freedoms gained and Those virlues which Those lorelalhers pos- sessed we also value highly. ll cerfainly is our duly lo make evidenl our grave responsibilily for lhese heril- ages. In The process of educalion and developmenl of our minds from childhood lo maluriry lo old age we should conlinue in +ha+ responsibilily, aclively conlribule 'ro irs developmenl lhrough lo years lo come, and Thus squarely meer 'rhe challenge ol loday.
