THE MOTHER AS TEACHER—Sculptured by E. Delaplanche
In the above masterpiece we have a vivid and sympathetic portrayal in eternal marble of the universal mother-instinct to instruct and educate her children. This she does in accordance with the measure of her own mental equipment, her previous advantages, and a mother love which frequently means patience, sacrifice and anxiety. But the instinct is always present and must continue while the human race lasts—ever onward and upward.
