  THE CARE AND TRAINING OF CHILDREN

  By LE GRAND KERR, M.D.

  No two children are exactly alike; not even those of the same familywith hereditary influences, environment, and economic conditions thesame. Their temperaments, their ambitions, their ideas of life, it willbe noted, are widely different. For committing a wrong act one childneeds punishment, while on a like occasion another child needs advice.To bring up their children so that they will be vigorous, noble men andwomen is the most perplexing problem that confronts mothers and fathersto-day. Dr. Kerr, from his close association with children, is wellqualified to enlighten parents on these difficulties. In this book hehas given thorough treatment to the training of children, hygiene,physique, mentality, and morality. After one has read the book thereseems to be no phase of the question that has not been covered. Theyoung parent will find it a wonderful aid; the elder parents will wantto pass it on to their children.
