On the early morning of October 7,Juche 34(1945), President Kim Il Sung visited thehouse of an official which was next to his residence at the foot of HaebangHill.
Saying to the wife of the officialthat he came to see their children, he offered to put up a swing for them.
She said with a blush that she would set it up withinthe day and asked him to let her couple do that.
He said smilingly that to bring upchildren well is a matter of primary importance in making the countryprosperous and that only when people acquire a habit of taking exercise intheir childhood can they surely become able talents. Then he started setting upa swing by tying a rope around the shelf type of a grape vine.
A nice swing appeared in the courtyardin a moment.
After that he woke the children whowere still asleep in a room.
He told the children not to sleep late from thefollowing day, but to get up early in the morning and play while getting on aswing or riding a bicycle.
Thanks to his meticulous care and warmaffection, they got out of the habit of getting up late and woke early in themorning to lead a merry life as they swept the courtyard and rode the bike.
