Education in its entirety, covering all phases. Especially prepared for parents, teachers, and students. Excellent for all classes. The great principles of Christian education are clearly set forth, and invaluable counsel for the education of the youth is placed within the reach of all.

In answer to the question, “What is education?” and in defining its source, we quote a few sentences from the first chapter of the book:

“Our ideas of education take too narrow and too low a range. There is need of a broader scope, a higher aim. True education means more than the perusal of a certain course of study. It means more than a preparation for the life that now is. It has to do with the whole being, and the whole period of existence possible to man. It is the harmonious development of the physical, the mental, and the spiritual powers. It prepares the student for the joy of service in this world, and for the higher joy of wider service in the world to come.

“The Source of such an education is brought to view in these words of Holy Writ, pointing to the Infinite One: In him, ‘are hid all the treasures of wisdom.’ ‘He hath counsel and understanding.’”
