The Children of the Future (Classic Reprint) by Nora Archibald Smith Pdf

Excerpt from The Children of the Future It is only another proof of the infinite scope of the Divine plan that such countless myriads of human beings can be born into the world, all built on the same general lines, and yet difiering so widely one from another as to need for their best development climates and training as dissimilar as do the polar bear and the bird of paradise. Through carelessness, through ignorance, through dullness sometimes, indeed, through sheer wickedness many children are no better understood by their parents than if they were natives of another planet. Truth to tell, they often appear to many of us to be strangers and foreigners, though how the tiny creatures, born of our own flesh and blood, and nurtured at our hearthstones, can so differ from one another and from their parents is a problem to puzzle the wisest. Yet, whether this be due to heredity, to pre natal influences, or to the old, old theory of the transmigration of souls, the facts are there, as solid as the hills themselves. Every child difiers from every other child as much as one star differeth from another star in glory, and not until this is understood, and training is given to suit the particular case, can we be sure that the budding human life will not be killed, bent, or stunted by misapplied force. Because the father was well brought up by a particular system, there is no reason to suppose that it will succeed with the son; because the eldest daughter has flourished under certain discipline, we need not therefore conclude that it will fit the youngest equally well. The polar bear must be fed on something besides seeds and fruits if he is to be a model of his kind, and the bird of paradise will pine away before he will reconcile himself to a diet of raw flesh.

Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea by O. H. Peters Pdf

Excerpt from Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea The causative agencies from which springs the plentiful harvest of child mortality in large cities may be conceived as a felted mass of rootlets almost inextricably intertwined. Those of poverty, bad housing, bad feeding, and neglect, may be severally recognized, but the extent of their interrelations with actual respiratory and alimentary disease - those to which the greater part of the mortality is referred - can be traced only with difficulty. It is the object Of this work to aid ln the labour of cutting away the matrix and entangling fibres and to lay bare the hidden ramifications of at least one important causative agency - epidemic diarrhoea. This affection - if we accept provisionally the more novel and generally favoured conception. As to its nature - is revealed as something very like an ordinary infectious disease, and one which permeates all classes, while the excessive mortality it gathers round itself in urban centres must be regarded as something superadded, owing to the vicious circle it forms with those baneful conditions of slum life mentioned above. On the other hand, its peculiarly intimate association with the circum stances of domestic life, from the continual faecal pollution of the interior of the household by infants and others, tends to make it more so than other affections of the kind peculiarly a class disease, and an especial scourge of dirty neighbourhoods. Dirty towns may however be saved from excessive mortality by a high percentage of breast feeding. A notable point in the interesting comparison that can be drawn between diarrhoea and typhoid fever is that, in accordance with their peculiarly opposite age-incidence curves, the marked and habitual depositing of infectious excreta within the household in the former disease may make the question of water-closet versus conservancy pan a matter of far less importance than in the latter.

The Next Generation (Classic Reprint) by Frederick A. Rhodes Pdf

Excerpt from The Next Generation No man knoweth what a day may bring forth, and no body of men can declare what may be the condition of this or-that nation a generation hence. To present a book on The Next Generation may seem presumptuous to the careful students of history. While our best plans for the future may be overthrown by unsuspected coming events, we must build for the future, let come what may. Since society cannot exist without government in some form or another and since a good state of government requires that a majority of the individuals be of a reasonable mind, any treatise which considers seriously those things which are for the betterment of the race should command some consideration. Does blood tell? Can a mother influence her daughter by thoughts, deeds and things seen during the develop ment of her child? Can we safely adopt a foundling? Who is'to blame that the child is born deformed or men tally defective? These are only a few of the many ques tions which are continually being asked in any discussion concerning future generations. Any teaching which states that the son of a thief must steal or that the son of a drunkard is condemned to a drunkard's grave is doing much harm. We all agree that good parents with a good state of society predisposes to good children, but religion demands that all be given a chance.

Counting-Out Rhymes of Children (Classic Reprint) by Walter Gregor Pdf

Excerpt from Counting-Out Rhymes of Children Among the Romans future events were prognosticated from the casting of lots. These lors were a kind of dice made either of wood, gold, or other material, with certain letters, words, or marks inscribed on them. They were thrown commonly into an urn, sometimes filled with water, and drawn out either by a boy or by the one who consulted the oracle. The priests of the temple interpreted the meaning of the lots as they were drawn out. The lots were sometimes thrown like common dice. At times it was decided by lot who was to preside at a meeting. Thus, at the committee for electing the consuls and creating the praetors, the consuls fixed by lot which of them was to preside, if they did not decide by consent. Sometimes the election of magis trates, priests, and other functionaries was effected by the lot. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Children (Classic Reprint) by Alice Meynell Pdf

Excerpt from The Children Children forget last year so well that if they are Londoners they should by any means have an im pression of the country or the sea annually. A London little girl watches a fly upon the wing, fol lows it with her pointing finger, and names it bird. Her brother, who wants to play with a bronze Japanese lobster, asks Will you please let me have that tiger? At times children give to a word that slight var iety which is the most touching kind of newness. Thus, a child of three asks you to save him. How moving a word, and how freshly said' He had heard of the saving of other things of interest - especially chocolate creams taken for safe-keep ing - and he asks, Who is going to save me to day Nurse is going out, will you save me, mother? The same little variant upon common use is in another child's courteous reply to a sum mons to help in the arrangement of some flowers, I am quite at your ease.

Playgrounds, One of Canada's Greatest Needs by J. J. Kelso Pdf

Excerpt from Playgrounds, One of Canada's Greatest Needs: A Call to Service for the Children of the Future; Plea for Recreation By means of play and wholesome recreation the spirit of youth is perpetuated and the routine of daily life is brightened with the quality of joyous exhilaration. In this way the sum total of human happiness may be vastly increased. Countless generations of children will yet inhabit this great Dominion, and if our statesmen and philanthropists consider for a moment the claims of posterity, and wish to be regarded as of blessed memory they will advocate and carry out a more generous and far-visioned playground policy in the towns and villages now springing up on every hand, and destined in the years to come to expand into great cities, with teeming multitudes of boys and girls needing play facilities. There is not a city or town that -is at present doing anything like its full duty in this respect. Men's thoughts have been occupied with other things, and they have to be frequently reminded that there are interests in life beside material prosperity, that health and happiness are as worthy of serious thought as any other policy of national development.

The First Music Reader (Classic Reprint) by Charles Edward Whiting Pdf

Excerpt from The First Music Reader Tnn child's first year at school is a very important one, for then deep and enduring impressions are made on the mind. Music is one of the most potent of early influences; hence it is wise to teach such songs at this stage as will best contribute to the, future as well as the present enjoyment of the child. A pleasing melody is appreciated by a child quite as much as by an older person; hence it has been the aim of the author of this series to select and compose songs for the First Reader, that. Both in the melodic construction of the music and in the sentiment of the words, are best adapted to please as well as instruct children. The music in this number, where no composer's name is given, is the composi tion of the author of this series. The illustrations, it is believed, will greatly enhance the child's interest in the songs. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Compensation Or Always a Future (Classic Reprint) by Anne M. H. Brewster Pdf

Excerpt from Compensation or Always a Future And now, a word for my poor little fiction itself. Mrs. Norton sang, to an ugly child, The loved are lovely, so thou art to me, Child, in whose face strange eyes no beauty see. And thus I feel toward this little book. I commenced it at a sea son of great sadness - at a period when the very ground on which I stood seemed reeling. Old ties were rent asunder, old faiths, old hopes; all I had lived, loved, and prayed for, swept from me; links severed, never to be clasped together in this state of being. To keep my sorrow from feeding on me, I gave my serpent a file. The world has nothing to do with all this; but my little public may look more favorably on my book-child when they know what an angel of blessing it has proved to me. It has done its duty well; it has cheered me when hopeless; given me fresh spring and impulse when failing health and morbid spirits refused their aid. Now its work is finished with me. It will go out into the world to take its chance by the side of lovelier and cleverer ones. I have done all I can for it in return for its good done to me. 1 am only sorry that my doing has been so weak.
