the creative element of her char
acter and preparing. the way for
her future happiness. 1t may not
be easy to stay by your boy while
he goes through all the tedious
movements of constructing bird
house. But by so doing you train
his hand and mind and heart to act
together in the direction OF a
joyous adulthood
Likewise the thinking of your
child may be started early. An
swer his why's and wherefores as
. best you can. Encourage him to
ask questions and ask many of
him. Not only ask him what he
did at school yesterday, but ask
him to tell you how he expects to
get tomorrow's school work done
to best advantage.
Teach your child from the first
neither to say nor to think the
word Cant" Try to keep the
meaning Of this word entirely out
of his mind.
Teach your child from the first
to think and quietly affirm the
ideas which will naturally tend to
action and achievement. Do not
be satisfied with vagueness. Be
specific. Tomorrow I shall do
better at school, is not so good as
Tomorrow I shall master that
arithmetic lesson"
Teach your child always to think
and affirm quietly his health and
not his possible disease. He will
thus influence his health now and
for the future.
