A Young Folks' History of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
JOSEPH SMITH, THE PROPHET.
HYRUM SMITH, THE PATRIARCH.
We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what Work thou didst in their days, in the time of old — Psalm xliv:1 .

Studying the history of our country creates patriotism and engenders loyalty. For the same reason, a study of the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will implant in our boys and girls a love for its heroes, a loyalty to its principles, and an appreciation of its achievements. By a knowledge of the history of the Church, our young people will prize more highly that heritage given them of God and preserved for them by the sweat and blood of their fathers.
