A very important part of the edu-
cation of my children is teaching
them a love of beauty. If they love
the beautiful they seek to become

r AM bringing up my three sons to be perfect
men. If am so fortunate as to have
other children will bring them up in the
same way, be they boys girls, I am glad
to bring to the attention of intelligent Ameri-
can mothers my plan for rearing perfect men.
It they adopt it I believe one branch of
Ieugenics will have taken a long stride in
NAmerica.
Bringing up children is a striving toward an
ideal. Before l begin telling you how I am
training these little men of mine I would
better tell you what is my ideal of the perfect
man.
The perfect man is one whose brain and
body and character are equally strong. The
perfect man is Natures best example of bal
ance. His body is strong and handsome, with
no muscle developed at the expense of others
His brain is active and we'll trained without
the extreme intellectual activity that makes
an overdraft upon the body. His character is
clean and fine and mmovable as to principle
Such is a harmonious individual, perfect
man.

notion about how to carry out the
ideas. What most teachers lack is
the spirit of education. They know
what is to be taught, but they
haven't the faintest idea of how to
teach it. l should have the teaching
force weeded out and only those who
love children and those who have the
spirit of education would be allowed
to remain. They must not only love
children, but they must understand
them. There should be course iii
