Encourage Your Child to Read.


As early as possible let your children be encouraged to read, and see
that they are provided with books and papers adapted to their capacity
of mind. Some parents, be it said to their shame, consider money spent
in this way as unnecessary or even wasted. A more erroneous idea of
economy never existed. Books are great educators. A mother should be
more careful to provide her children with good books than fine clothes;
should spend more time in teaching and training them than in decking
their bodies for show and display. Mothers, if you are obliged to
practice economy, do not commence to save in your children's books and
papers; let it be in something else first. While, however, the mind is
being trained and improved, care should be taken that the spiritual part
is not neglected. While your children are reading books by various
authors, have a care that they do not neglect the reading of the Bible,
the Book of books.
