" Defining moral edu cation as an art rather than a Bclencc tuid dating its beginning at about the third year of the child's life , Dr. Wolfe said In BUb- b'tancr "Moral education if. chiefly will training. 3t must be conducted with patience and tact und a recognition of the long and crooked way that leads at lost to the controlled will. Obedience Is the beginning of conscience. 3t hhould be inbiMod upon , but authority should be UHtd t-oltlom and alnujh Judi ciously , and when once exerted no exception ' i.hcmld be made. The child should be taught 'f to mind , not mafic to mlnfl. Lr"t him net ffrom inner necessity , not from outer force. Energy thwarfd tie-romes feeling , and nn- jilcuhunt feeling leads to strained relations lietween parput and child. Emotional cy clones are apt to grow more and anore com- man iiud to produce permanent injurj' to the child nature. Love is the suitable at mosphere for moral culture nnd the essen tial -\Irtneb are truthfulness and a reverence for work , with respect for the laborer To educate a child In truthfulness Is u tiresome task considering tbe condition * , of life , but hcrr there should be absolutely no com promise " At the concluhion of the nddrefcs Miss Lilian FitLh. who hud earlier in the after noon recited "The Honor of thp "Woods" m st acceptably , was allowed to respond to lier encore , llits Pitch recited "In llie Ueual * V ay The program come to u close with n re port given by Mrs : Suflborough of the moth- erb' meetingfc w hlch "hD e been held under the direction of Miss McCarthy and with the tu'ihlhtanco of physicians in several ttchool liuildlnge of 1he city.
