teach children to respect the tights of
other people, In view of the fact
that the children have fallen into the
error of SO CONSTANTLY appropriating
the possessions of Others, the subject
becomes an important one. Some of
the points brought out were these:

pie of honesty aud truth; children
should always have the truth told
them, as they are quick to detect the
least discrepancy; if a child brings
home anything not, his own he should
at once be made TO return it to its
owner; putting things entirely out of
reach of little folks is not the most eff
fectual way of teaching obedience. A
discussion Of this sort, in which all are
free to take part, is very helpful to all
who have the control of children 1t
is hoped that more ladies will attend
in the future.
