of the enlarged pictures will be "fearfully and wonderfully made," but
it is a start in a splendid direction--a start which may have its
ending in the happiness for which every parent longs and which cannot
come unless the children begin in childhood to become the companions
of their parents--companions who cannot be separated in later years by
distance or the disturbances of the earthly life.


~~A Final Word to Ministers.~~

Do not forget that there is no earthly or heavenly reason why a
minister should not have a blackboard or an easel on the pulpit
platform or in the prayer meeting room to help him keep his audiences
awake while he tries to drive truth home to heart and mind. It is
every preacher's duty to be _interesting_, and if this book and
the blackboard, or the equipment for chalk talk work, will help him to
be so, then it is his plain duty to buy the book and secure the chalk
and easel and _"get busy" being interesting_!

And there is one more thing: Don't forget you can do it--_if you
try_!

And now, with these general instructions and observations, the book is
commended to the use of all who have the love of Christ in their
hearts and who, as faithful workers, may wish to add one more working
tool to those they have used so well.
