Early Instruction for the Young

LIFE, even at the outset, is full of temptations and dangers, which, to be met and avoided, requires instruction and warning. Far, far better that this instruction should reach the boy and girl early in life, from the lips of the wise and loving parent or teacher, than from the loose tongues of playmates, servants, or business acquaintances. Such knowledge must come to every young person, sooner or later, then let it come from the God-given source — the parent — and let it come early enough to forestall all the temptation and danger.
