TESEZmf Friday, May 5, 1944 6 RUTH NIGHT AT EASTERN STAR NEW from Heaven Men are prepared to navigate a mission to enemy targets, as well as aim and drop blockbusters on them. They are skilled, too, in aerial gunnery; familiar with aerial reconnaissance photographs of enemy installations, with camouflage and with enemy aircraft identity. Climaxing their training with maneuvers at prairie bases simulating actual combat conditions, they got rugged samples of what they will soon experience; fusing, loading and packing their own bombs, living on concentrated rations, bunking in pup tents and underground shelters. The new bombardier-navigators are now ready to take their places with the AAFs crack precision bombing teams, key men in the aerial assault on Axis strongholds over the globe.

It is generally agreed by pediatricians and psychiatrists that progress in the prevention of mental ill-health in adults is dependent to a large degree opon our success in understanding and treating these fears and anxieties of Babies from the time they are born are fearful of falling and loud noises. These fears are instinctive in nature and may continue throughoht life. Then there are fears of insecurity which are added to wrong attitudes of parents.

Security is the feeling that is given a child from birth by parents who want a child and accept him as he is. Later security is given by the family, community, school, church, and nation. The child with security has self-confidence which leads to self-reliance; he is able to meet new and difficult situations in life. The insecure individual does not grow up in the sense that he is not self-reliant. He develops anxieties when difficult situations arise and, these anxieties are the same as those he had as a child.

Let May Day cause you to think not only of your childs physical well being, but also make sure that your attitudes toward him will develop mental stability and good health.
