WHY DO The CHILDREN LOVE YOU:
As we look at some families where the
| children Just seem to worship their par
enis. and again We see others where the
! children seem 10 think more Of every
| body else than they do OF their parents.
! and We pause and exclaim why is it,"
| Parents do YOU wish for YOUR children to
/ love and respect you? If YOU do. when
YOUR child comes 10 you for advice be
| sure TO give good advice: don't say.
| -Oh. go way. don't bother me. 60 ask
| YOUR mother. or some such answer.
| Or If they come 10 their mother perhaps
she says go 10 your father, ! am busy"
| The child will soon get afraid TO ask
| advice for fear OF being rebuked. and it
1 will De apt 10 seek advice some where
else. II YOU take an interest in YOUR
| children then they will take an interest
| in you. We have seen little children
while running al play or perhaps on an
! GRAND for their parents. get fall and
a bump on the head or skin finger and
when they would 90 TO their parents for
a kind word Of comfort they would saw
Well. the next time look where YOU are
going and don't be so awkward; 90 long
now. and hush." That child will GER
tainly find out sooner or later that its
! parents have no love or sympathy Tor it.
and i will grow up without sny kind
ceilings towards that parent But on
the other hand let the child come 10 the
parents for lis advice, and if kind words
are spoken the child will never forget
II. and II will also look with respect on
that parent If the little child gets a
bump or fall. or cut or a skinned
finger mother will say: Come here 10
me. little one, and let her pet YOU and
she will kiss the bumped head and
wrap up the cut finger, with a few kind
words. Then the child knows that YOU
love it. and it will love YOU and respect
YOU. and when the years have passed
and gone and they have grown to man
hood and wonanhood they will look
back TO their childhood DAYS as the hap
piest days of their lives
A word of comfort kindly spoken.
VIII many q moment cheer,
A word OF scon to 4 heart that's broken.
VIII cause grief for many a year.
Hard thought Ii be 10 love those who
hate you, II IS harder still to hate those
who love you
HOME INFLUENCES.
We laugh at the manly ways of our
boys, and make merry over their at
