Not illustrated. 1916 Excerpt: ...very thing God meant no child to do. It has not been my lot to meet with many hypocrites, but I have watched them closely whenever I have met them; and my experience is that very often hypocrisy can be traced back to the home. When a child is repressed instead of being encouraged, when it is afraid to open its lips lest it be jeered at, then it grows reticent, and loses all selfconfidence, and hypocrisy becomes perilously easy.

He may be a better man, or he may be a worse man, than he is in the judgment of the world. He may be far more generous, amiable, patient; or, on the other hand, he may be less so. But the point is that in the freedom of the home, where there is love and fellowship and sympathy, a man is recognised in his true nature.

And there ' we shall see him as he is'; in heaven we shall see him in his home. We shall no longer see him among those who scorn him; we shall see him among the multitudes who love him. Foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man hath not where to lay his head. He had only one place here to lay his head, and that was on the cross. And if here, despised and rejected, he was so wonderful and full of grace--what will he be at home! Here he could not turn ...
