should be, it is unreasonable to
expect the school to. do so. 1t is
the home life which has the most
influence. 1t very largely deter
mines the future. Before school
age, when we think our children
are learning nothing, they are
really learning a great deal. 1t
rests with us to see what they
learn. In the bright sayings of
children we often get an insight
into their daily home life.
The years before seven are the
most impressionable, and their in
fluences continue turnout life. A
child comes into the world know
ing nothing. 1t does not know
how to walk, eat, to speak. Why
mot teach it to do all these things
correctly, to save learning them
twice?
These lessons should not be made
difficult; all of us remember best
the experiences most enjoyed.
We spoke in the beginning of
reading. If your little ones learn
to. recognize the letters and some
of our common words it should
be as an amusement, a game. Do
not commit the mistake of MAX
ing it a lesson.
ALI life is lesson if you want
to make and call it such. Accept
as much as possible of it in the
highest spirit of play and it will
bring more joy. Especially, do
this with those first few years of
a child's life at home when all
work should be play.

A book with good plain letters

ment the little girl was quite
happy, reading words here and
there.
"She should not know how to
read at her age" objected a wo-
man.
"Why not?" / asked.
cts bad for her health was
the reply.
This child had not been urged
to read. At an early age, l had
given her alphabet blocks with
which to play. As she wanted to
know what the blocks meant, told
her the names of the letters. From
that. it was not long before she
knew the words under the pictur-
es on the blocks and was picking
them out of every book she came
across. It afforded her much am
usement for rainy day. Know
ing something about books, she
was, later, less tirnid at the idea of
going to school.
There are other things, howev-
er. more important. Before reach
ing the school age a child should
be taught to speak good English
and should understand and prac-
tice pleasing manners. Some child
