Excerpt from Parenthood and Child Nurture The spiritual nurture and religious training of the world's childhood is vital to all we hold dear in our Chris tian civilization. In this work of child training, the home holds the strategic place. It has the children in its care in the early years before they are old enough to attend either the Public School or the Church School. The im pressions of these years determine or modify the whole of the life that follows. Even later, the children spend many more hours in the home than they do in either the Church or Public School.
