The Advocate of Christian Education
By Editor
“WHERE no wood is, there the fire goeth out.” Some people attempt to keep alive their interest in Christian education without feeding their minds with mental food on that subject. The gospel of education should be understood by every Christian. It is Mandell Creighton who says: “People in general must be really interested in what their children are taught, and must take the trouble to understand what they should be taught, and how that teaching shall be given.” The October issue of The Advocate is a special issue. It contains a report of the proceedings of the Educational Conference of Christian Teachers held at Berrien Springs, Mich., in August, 1902. This matter is alive and up-to-date. It tells how children should be educated, and the duty of the church toward the children. If you are not a regular reader of The Advocate, send for this special issue. Subscription price, 50 cents a year, 5 cents per copy. Address The Advocate, Berrien Springs, Mich.
