Description
Summary:Every father wants his boy to be better than himself. But he finds it easier to talk religion with his neighbors' children than with his own. Much moral instruction must therefore inevitably be given outside of the family. If such instruction can be given by a boy's teacher whom he loves and respects, it will be so much the better. The present series of articles by Professor Johnson are born of experience. Both the author and the editor of the "Biblical World" are anxious that their readers may comment upon them and make every sort of suggestion. The lessons which will follow this introductory paper will appear later in the form of a little textbook, to be used with classes of high-school boys. Suggestions as far as advisable will be embodied in the revised form.
