The Importance of Early Training

As a twig is easily bent, so is a child easily inclined to right or wrong. Parents and teachers can not too often consider the importance of early training. If the child is surrounded with that which is pure and helpful, if the spirit of the home is always that of kindness and love, it is impossible but that there be laid those foundations of character which are strong and desirable. In the education of the child, every hour of his early life is fraught with grave possibilities. If he is trained aright, he will not depart from right paths when he is old.
