We have our millions of children

CHRIST and THE FACTORY OWNERS
.(By Augustus Wingood. !


One of the sweetest incidents re-
corded in all the Bible is that of the
Saviour and the children when He
said, Suffer little children, and for
bid them not, to come unto me; for
Of such. is the kingdom of heaven"
Painters, poets, preachers and philos-
ophers have described this scene in a
thousand ways and thousand forms.
They have put it in glowing colors
on canvass; they have chiseled it in
to marble; they have immortalized it
in song; they have woven the spell
of eloquence around it, and yet they
have never sounded the depths of the
power and beauty and love of this
wonderful scene. 1t is scene which
lives in the hearts and souls of men
and women the world over, because
OF its humanness, its love, its sim
cere, and unaffected affection.
There is no record in the Scriptures
that Christ ever smiled. On the con-
trary we are told that He was a man
OF sorrows and acquainted with grief. !.
But If ever the Saviour did smile it
must have been when He held the
children in His arms and looked down
into their happy faces. II there is
anything in this world which will
bring a smile to the lips of a care
worn man It Is happy, laughing lit

crop of children we expect to grow
to manhood and womanhood and be
the nation.
The child must not be the victim
of its parents. .
Whether the parents of the child
are thrifty or .indolent, wealthy or
poor, devoted or despicable. compe-
tent or ignorant, the child must have
the opportunities accorded every 9TH
er child.
That is to say, we as nation must
see to it that the children of the
land shall be given every care and
attention needed to have them flower
to full manhood and womanhood.
I For the biggest part of the school
is not inclosed in four walls.
It begins when the child is born
lif not before.
1t begins with those things which
are necessary to give the little one a
sound body and clear mind.
It asks for proper shelter and
health surroundings before even the
kindergarten is reached.
It requires good, wholesome food
] whatever medical attention may be
necessary, clothing and playtime.
1t demands such things in order
/ that its period in the classroom may
be put to the best advantage. And
it demands that the child continue
in school until it is fully equipped to
take its place in the working world
with the chance of using its facul-
ties and talents to the utmost
| A great deal of learning must be
done in the home. But when the
home is only repulsive hovel, with
meagre furniture. insufficient food,
absence of warmth, and with illness
and disease peeping out from every
corner, learning from the school book
falls behind in favor of the bitter
Lessons Of poverty.
There is no way out of it but that
we, as nation, shall give to the ma
tons children equal opportunity to
all that education implies.
We know only too well from past
experiences that we shall likely do
that first which lies nearest to hand
or seems to. We shall go at the
task piecemeal and arrive at the
journeys end by the longest. way
around. But we shall get there.
And for all that, the time is not
distant when we shall have children
born INTO the world because we shall
want them as much as we want sun
shine after sorrow.
We shall have the children receive
the food and the care to mold their
bodies and minds fairer and finer.
We shall have the schools play the
part of the happy journey from the
home to the Industrial world.
!. And we shall have the world fit for
the children to live in so as to become
The greater nation.
