lled upon, not only such stories, for example, as "Ben Hur," but other stories not necessarily religious, which deal with the same time and place; they are of great help in putting vividly before the children and parents the temporal setting of the eternal stories. Cannon Farrar's "Life of Christ" is a very great help to the realization of the New Testament scenes, as is also Tissot's "Pictorial Life of Christ." In short every art should be made to deepen and clarify the conceptions roused by the study of the Bible. [Sidenote: In Conclusion] The mother who undertakes the tremendous task of rightly training her children, will need to exercise herself daily in all the Christian virtues--and if there are any Pagan ones not included under faith, hope, charity, patience, and humility, to exercise those also. With these virtues to support her, she will be able to use whatever knowledge she may acquire. Without them she can do nothing. TEST QUESTIONS The following questions constitute the "written recitation" which the regular members of the A.S.H.E. answer in writing and send in for the correction and comment of the instructor. They are intended to emphasize and fix in the memory the most important points in the lesson. PART III Read Carefully. In answering these questions you are earnestly requested _not_ to answer according to the text-book where opinions are asked for, but to answer according to conviction. In all cases credit will be given for thought and original observation. Place your name and full address at the head of the paper; use your own words so that your instructor may be sure that you understand the subject. 1. How can you bring the influence of art to bear upon your child? 2. What is the influence of music? How can you employ it? 3. Do you believe in fairy tales for children? State your reasons. 4. How would you encourage the love of nature in your child? 5. What is it that the Kindergarten can do better than the home? 6. Suppose that your child had some undesirable acquaintances, how would you meet the situation? 7. What can you say of accomplishments for children? 8. If manual training, physical culture, domestic science, etc., are not taught in your schools and you wish your children to get some of the advantages of these studies, how will you set about it? 9. What do you understand to be the correlation of studies? 10. Should parents become acquainted
