in brief IS, making home a stronghold
Of interesting associations that shall
grow more valuable with added years
Begin early to in~til irto life the
feelings derived from these assoctso
tions, not least among which is the
beautifying Of home
Let him who beauties home see
that the child within its walls shah
get the full effect of it's beautiful. en-
vironments. Acute poetical percep
tions and fine sensibilities arising
s.Um the development of the creative
faculties, are much assisted by the or.
namental; comeliness in nature finds
its counterpart in human nature, othe7
things being equal. Childhood is pc
culiarly susceptible TO such iufln
ences.
From the brook thc' runs thrcns,
the picturesque meadow. from th+
messy dell, from the grassy green hilI
side, from the cheerful door ard of

member has duties to THIS &C and
once the far-reachins results of these
duties are realized, their performance
will be pleasure just from the fac
of feeling that one has added SONS.

lnculcate the idea that home is q

encroachments of the worlds perplex
tiles annoyances and teanptai IONS,
and striys to have each member OF
the household not only willing but
eager to put a brick in this structure

Thus, and only thus, may We Sc
