Mr. Blaisdell's attractive and amusing illustrations may well serve as a substitute for the ordinary comic pictures of the newspapers.
Whittier, J. G. (Editor).
Child-Life.
Houghton. 1.50
Although thirty-seven years have passed since Child-Life was compiled, it stands now, as then, far ahead of most collections of poetry for American children. Our own poets are well represented.
Religion And Ethics
Loving Jesus, meek and mild,
Look upon a little child!
Make me gentle as Thou art,
Come and live within my heart.
Take my childish hand in thine,
Guide these little feet of mine.
So shall all my happy days
Sing their pleasant song of praise.
Charles Wesley.
Beale, H. S. (B.).
