Does Your Boy

Youth
Is the period. It is then that the
mind is freest from r jr,.-. the imagination
unhampered, the memory most retentive, the
eve brightest, ..nd the nature most
susceptible. What a bo\ reads in this
period becomes so indelibly impressed upon
his nature that it becomes a part of his very
character.
This is a time when a parent’s responsibility
is greatest, his not enough to tell the boy
what lie ought to become. Most boys are
not overly susceptible to didactic
teaching. You can usually lead him a mile
easier than you can drive him a rod. See
that he has the proper surroundings, and a
little encouragement, and it is surprising how
readily he develops a taste for the best
in literature. Let that taste be developed,
and there is little danger as to his future.
It was
Dr. Philips Brooks
Who said; “Show me what books a boy
reads, and I will read you Ms destiny.
How important it is. then, that your home
should be provided with books of the highest
character.
Fairy tales, and even, perhaps. “ Buffalo
Bill” stories, have their place as developers
of a taste for reading, a sort of literary milk,
as it were, but unless the boy soon shows a
preference for the stronger meat of practical
knowledge, history, travel, etc., you may be
sure that he is mentally unsound, or that
there has been something radically wrong In
his education.
The Encyclopedia Britannica has rightly
been termed “the concentrated essetce of
the whole world’s wiMom.” Let your boy
read its interesting pages, and he’will soon
look with disdain upon “ flashy ” literature.
We are continually underestimating a boy’s
capacity for large ideas. There is nothing
so attractive as truth. Give him the material [
out of which to construct large ideas. Put
Britannica in the home, where he can consult 1
it continually, and as he attains manhood he
will find no place in literary or professional
life to which he may not aspire.
Seize the present opportunity to provide a
proper library for your home. It requires an I
Investment of but Ten Cents a day, if you
order from The Atlanta Constitution
while it may be had at Intrnductony prices.
