C. THE HOME In the book of Genesis, we have an account of the establishment of the first home, when God placed man and his hefp-meet in the Garden of Eden. Since that time, the home has been the foundation stone 'of civilisation.

No nation is stronger than its homes. It is God's institution for religious training and for the forming of Christian character. His chosen people were Instructed to make home a place where the word of God should have a very prominent place. They were to write the commandments of God on their walls and gates and diligently instruct their children in hem. This method has been carried out to some extent in spirit, by the modern method of placing -scriptural mottoes and verses on the walls of the home.

Early impressions are lasting and many men and women can testify of the fact that these teachings have remained with them through life.

In addition to all other comforts, there would naturally be those things that enter into the spiritual life such as books and literature to assist in building true Christian lives. The life of Abraham Lincoln was shaped very largely by the influence of his very humble cabin home of poverty. The reading of the meager list of books at his was a very important asset to his growing eager life. The poet Whittier testifies that the little library of books in that old Quaker home, were read and re-read until he almost knew them by memory. Jacob Riis, was wont to say that "Civilization and character were murdered In the slums for the lack of homes." Home is the lode-star that guides and holds throughout life.

An American "Rookie" fn a camp on the Atlantic coast, went into a telephone booth, on the eve of his departure across the sea, and dropped 25 silver dollars in the slot for the comfort and pleasure of talking to his mother in San Francisco for three minutes. It was the keeping power for thousands "over there." Little wonder that our hearts respond to the words of Samuel Wordsworth, the poet, "How dear to my heart are the scenes of my childhood, when fond recollection brings them to view." But dearer than all the beloved message of J. Howard Payne, "Mid pleasures and palaces, though I may roam, Be it ever so bumble, there's no place like home."
