Are parents trying to save themselves trouble and responsibili The establishment of a home brings with it great responsibility ‘to parents and their children, to the world around them and to -future generations. Schools, Churches, Sun- day Schools and society cannot take the place of the home or assume the parent’s duties, but they should be allies of the home securing a better citizenship and in producing a high- er type of moral character. To give prominence to these ques- tions so that they may receive more rere consideration than is now be- ing given, a day has been set apart throughout the Dominion to be ob- served on Go-to-Sunday-School-Day. It has been felt that in the Sunday Sch6ol we have an institution work- ing definitely and effectively ‘for the «velopment of mora! character and the training of Christian citizenship, ed co-operation of every parent and every home. An effort is being made on this day; Sunday May vth, to cure’ a greatly increased attend- ance at the Sunday School and to enroll a membership which has as its ideal every member of the commun- ‘| ity. During the preceding week, May 2-9, special attention is drawn to e religious welfare of jittle child- ren by the observance of Children’s Week, and in this way by visitation of the homes, a Children’s Story and Play Hour, and a+ Parent-Teachers’ Meeting, the homes and the Sunday School are brought into closer ~co- operation. As the observance of Go to Sun-|? day School Day coincides with Moth- er’s Day, a special program for use in the Sunday” Schoo] and Church Services has been prepared, and is issued free of charge by the Ontario Religious Education Council, to all co-operating Sunday Schools. While it is deemed worthy and admirable to pay our tribute to the memory of the mothers who have ed away, it is surely desirable that attention be devoted to the mothers of the present and the future, for upon therh depends in a large measure the character of the citizenship of tomorrow. Every local citizen should seriously ask himself whether he does not owe it to his country, his community, his church and him- self to give his support, both morally and financially to the observance of Go-to-Sunday-School- Dey, May 9th, and in this way hélp to make the Sunday School a strong factor in the Lb ap-of-a better home life, in creating a higher Canadian citizen- ship. THE MAGIC CARPET Once upon a time in the mystic land of Persia, there was found among the treasures of a king, a wonderful carpet. One had only to sit dn it, wish to’be somewhere, and away the carpet would fly till the wished-for place was reached. For hundreds of years it carried kings and princes upon the most amazing adyentures. No one knows what be- came of it, but it may be that its : it threads went into the make-up the first Youth’s Comanion.
