PREFACE.

This book has a purpose: it is sent forth as precious seed, with the
prayer that it will fall into "good soil" in many hearts and bring forth
an hundredfold.

All parents with natural affection desire the best things for their
children. Such fathers and mothers have high hopes that from their home
will go forth noble men and women--yes, even heroes. Many fail to
realize the attainment of this ideal in their children, because of a
lack of the knowledge necessary to bring about the desired development
in the child-life.

The following pages were written with the fervent hope that they would,
at least in some measure, be a help in developing the young lives
entrusted to your care. If your harvest-time is past; if your children
have grown up and have left the old home, you may be able to help some
one who still has little ones to train.
