LINES FROM
THE LIBRARY
"In buying books for child-
ren it is as necessary to get
their book size as it is their
shoe size: neither so large as
to give them mental calluses,
nor so small as to pinch their
imagination." This quotation
from "Ladies' Home Journal"
for July, 1945, provokes
thought. Your Library carries
all "book sizes." We are sure
that we can "fit" your child, so
bring him in for a visit.

union of two good forgivers.—

Journal," July, 1945.

Three Things That Help
If you would soften a sor-
row: Tell it to a friend.
If you would increase a joy:
Share it with others.
If you would solve a worry:
Do something about it.

Two very important words:
"Thank You."

"Ten Commandments for Pa-
rents," by Paul M. Pitman (The
Parents' Magazine.")
I. Thou shalt love thy child
with all thy heart, with all thy
soul, with all thy strength, but
wisely, with all thy mind.
II. Thou shalt think of thy
child not as something belong-
ing to thee, but as a person.
III. Thou shalt regard his re-
spect and love, not at some-
thing to be demanded, but
something worth earning.
IV. Every time thou are out
of patience with thy child's
immaturity and blundering,
thou shalt call to mind some of
the childish adventures and
mistakes which attended thine
own coming of age.
V. Remember that it is thy
child's privilege to mke a hero
out of thee, and take thou
thought to be a proper one.
VI. Remember also that thy
example is more eloquent than
thy fault-finding and moraliz-
ing.
VII. Thou shalt strive to be a
sign post on the highway of life
rather than a rut out of which
the wheel cannot turn.
IX. Thou shalt help thy child
to see beauty, and to live in
friendship, to practice kindness
and to love truth.
X. Thou shalt make of the
place wherein thou dwellest a
real home — a haven of hap-
piness for thyself, for thy
children, for thy friends, and
for thy children's friends.
We join "The Parents' Mag-
azine" in dedicating these com-
[bottom of Column 5]
mandments to all who accept
parenthood as a welcome re-
sponsibility and a high privi-
lege.

Lewis Norris Is
Fine Young Man
Above is a picture of Lewis
Estel Norris, five months old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Boyce J.
Norris, of Route No. 1, Mari-
etta, S. C. This young man
weighs twenty pounds.
The father is employed here
as a weaver in our Weaving De-
partment, and has been con-
nected with S. Slater & Sons,
Inc. for a number of years.
Mrs. Norris was also formerly
employed here as a weaver.
Mr. and Mrs. Norris have
been living in this community
for the past five years, and be-
fore coming here lived at Hot
Springs in Madison County, N.
C. The Norrises have two older
sons. They are J. B. Norris, ten
years old, and Gerald Norris,
six years old.
When questioned concerning
the future occupation of Lewis,
Mrs. Norris stated she had not
decided what she would make
out of her youngest son, but
was strongly considering mak-
ing either a textile worker or
farmer out of the young man.
In about 15 or 16 years the Em-
ployment Department of Slater
sees in him a future worker for
the plant, as they expect him
to follow in the footsteps of
both his father and mother.
Lewis weighed about 8 1/2
pounds at birth and was born
at home. The mother was at-
tended by Dr. T. L. Takacy, of
Slater, and Mrs. Takacy, who
was the nurse present when
Lewis made his appearance and
bow to this world.
