serv parent should try to get
a detached point of view of the
child as really separate indi.
vidual too weak to take care OF
himself but with rights to be
respected and personality thai
is sacred. How would it feel to
be the child? Is the father ex-
employing in his words and
manner the graces he would have
his child possess? Would one
choose himself as parent if he
had the choice? The child is no,
property, not even is he in sub
lection to master. He is rather
an immature man pressing on
toward sef-realization. Too often
the parent is blindly following in
his management some adage or
example, without studying the
child. If any rule, except the alb
sence of all rule, applies univer-
sally to all children, it might
be inferred that all children are
alike. They are not alike, and
adages are not safe to follow.
Love and thoughtfulness furnish
the best, and the usual, guide.
In the brsngig up a wonderful
ly great investment of love and
life is poured into the child's
life, an amount he does not rea-
lie; until some time when he
needs most to know, the revolu..
tion bursts upon him. If par
Ients so woefully fail in this fund
amental matter, as it is assert
ed, surely it is either blind ignor-
which makes children love and

the parents themselves. Yet
since only the fathers and moth
ers fully know their children,
this knowledge, judged by the
supposed results-if the dictum
be correct-must operate as q
disqualification in the art of
making citizens, and, as a corol-
larry, pedagogy seems rather use
less. The alternative is left that
0arents usually know what they
SRfe about in training their chill
dren and do with them pretty
well what they intend. One is
confirmed in this view of the sat
isfactory results Of home dis
cipline when one sees the stabil-
ity and success of the immense
output Of the finished product of
manhood and womanhood COM
ing out yearly from under the
parental hand.
Can it be said, however, that
one-tenth of these adults are
what they should be, in body,
mind or soul? 1t is not that the
system fails so much as that the
highest possibilities are not re-
allied. The real glory of man is
the infinite development of
which he is capable. In the weak
ness of the long period of his in
fancy is the necessity of par
entail care until some at least Of
the boundless future is realized.
In "stump-toed" boy, of the
school variety, is it not difficult
to see in the making a future
Washington, a Cheves, a Hudson,
a Calhoun, or a Wilson? Hence
arises the impression of failure.
To similar lack of imagination is
to be attributed the opinion once
expressed that all boys should be
chloroformed until they arrive
sat manhood. Any class censured,
however, would confute the cri-
tics by producing the normal
number of successes. Unfortun-
ately, by the time the fact is ap-
parent, the critics are dead and
a new set, who ought also to be
dead, are lamenting the degen-
eracy of the younger set.
At the same time the SNUG
conceit and self-sufficiency of
many fathers and mothers in re-
gard to the education of their
boys and girls should he broken
up in the interests of the young.
Some of these cast RESPONSE
bility aside by doing nothing.
The silliest of all remarks in
this connection is perhaps this.
My childhood was not very
happy and want VIII to be
spared every trobule." 1t sounds
charming; but it means usually
indulgence on the part of the
parent and utter selfishness and
disobedience on the part Of the
victim of this parental softpess.
