[Upper left - What does al...]
Upper left - What does all this mean to the individual who finds himself terribly lonely in the midst of the crowded ways of life - but with little or no chance for real aloneness? Upper right - Our new neighbors come from all sorts of backgrounds. Some are from near, some from far; some are Negro, some white; some speak different languages. Are they welcome in your neighborhood? In your church? What are you doing to invite them in? Lower left - On top of the world - that's how these students feel. And it's becoming a smaller world every day! Students from other countries are entering our schools by the thousands. They have much to teach us, as well as to learn. But they are often lonely and left-out. Lower right - Too many drop out - out of school! Out of the future ? When a teenager quits school he has no place to go, nothing to do. He lacks the skills to get a job. He is too young to be "on his own."
