Referring to the old question of the “new woman” and her influence upon home life, the Rev. George C. Adams has this to say:— “In these days, when we hear so much about woman’s interests and so much about woman’s sphere, I can not but wonder whether it is possible, under present conditions, for the rest and sweetness of the old-fashioned home to be preserved. I sometimes wonder whether it is not all lost. “The woman who is of the world to-day could never be the mother of a Wesley or a Cromwell. The home of John Wesley was a place of song and prayer, and from that hearthstone came the Wesleys, who turned the world upside down. “Are not the children and the young people, thru the Sunday-school and other organizations, losing the sweetness of the Bible in the home?” “No one can teach the Bible to a child like his mother. Her teaching makes an impression that can never be produced by a Sunday-school teacher. . . . The question for us to consider is the kind of influence with which we are going to surround our children. Many of the little people of to-day are trained to consider their dancing lesson one of, if not the most, important duty in life. Think of it! I tremble for the future of children so reared. Let us remember one thing, my friends, the spirit of the home is reflected in the character of its children.” While the Sabbath-school has its place, and an important place, too, it never was designed to take the place of home study of the Word; and the faithful parent will not relegate to the Sabbath-school the work which God designed he should do in that fruitful missionary field, the home.
