The Child the Hope of the Race.

There is nothing in the world so
important as children, nothing so in.
teresting If you ever wish to go in
for some philanthropy, if you ever
wish to. be of any real use in the
world, do something for children. If
you ever yearn to be truly wise,
study children. We can dress the
sore, bandage the wounded, imprison
the criminal, heal the sick and bury
the dead; but there is always a
chance that we can save child. If
the great army of philanthropists ever
e.terminate sin and pestilence, ever
work out our races salvation. it will
be because a little child has led them.
