ABA LVL COWLE FATHER NICHOLAS H. WEGNER - DIRECTOR BOY 5 TOWN, NEBRASKA My dear Friend: Almost everyone I meet asks the same question: "Where do your boys come fron, and why are they at Boys Town?" Our boys, of course, come from everywhere - from every State and section of the Country - and they are of all races and religious creeds. We bring them to Boys Town because they are homeless, unwanted and without fricnds. Many of them, either through death or divorce, have lost life's greatest gift - their parents, Some are boys from the streets - intelligent, daring ~ who made a mistake or two because no one cared, and were labelled "tough guys" or "bad boys". Others have hitchhiked to get here, seeking a home and an education; and some are the victims of the casualties of the last World War. Boys Town is father, mother and heme to all of these forgotten, homeless boys. we give them good food, warm clothing, and help them adjust to normal living. They attend our own schools, and learn @ trade in our fine Trade School; they engage i... ...ieties with hundreds of other boys; they study music, and occupy their spare tine with many other recreational activities and hobbies for which facilities are provided.” They also perform certain chores required of every boy living in the uverage, Wall reguiated American home. Our boys conduct their own government by electing @ mayor and other city officials twice each year. Thaw 6,000 ill of this makes{these boys good, productive citizens, and not gangsters. Our record with of them whose lives we have rebuilt, and whose feet have been set fimmly on the road to American opportunity, proves it. This work is not finished. Others are awaiting their chance for a new life. We must be ready to welcome them. Will you help me provide for one boy who has no one else to turn to, nowhere else to go? $1 per day, or about $5 per week will feed and clothe a boy here at Boys Town. Any amount you send, whether it's $1, $2, $5, cr more, will be the finest investment you've ever made in Happiness.
