Seventy five years ago my grandmother, Stella wanted to better her rural life in the poor farm community of Pleasant Valley and attend high school in Guthrie. She made arrangements with an affluent family in town to sew, clean and cook in exchange for room and board while she attended high school. She set goals, worked her way through school and later became a nurse. All her children were successful and contributed much more to society than they accepted. Today, bus loads of young people want to better their own poor life and increase their opportunities for education and a better life in one of the richest country in the world. What arrangements do we make? Lock them up at Ft. Sill army base because there is no room for advancement and enniciative anymore in America. We were saving that room for our own lazy children. My, how America has changed.
