Présentation de l'éditeur

The introduction of a new Fourth Reader into the Stickney Series grows out of the recognition that the provision at this stage is less, while the opportunity is greater, than at any other point. It is the passing from childhood to early youth ;if wise provision is made for healthful growth, nutrition is assured. Working with law, we may accomplish what we will, subject only to limitations which are guides but not hindrances. Courage and tenderness, chivalry and loyalty, honor and duty in varying measure wait to be stimulated into expression in conduct. It may be a slow process, but nothing is more sure when conditions are favorable. The reading lesson is the best single agency the school day affords, and wisely chosen reading the best instrument. Events of recent years have altered the range of even childrens thought, and strenuous times make possible the appeal to higher ideals. Larger views of life and its responsibilities seem natural in view of the citizenship in which our children are soon to bear their part. It is not too soon to begin to provide for a growth in character and to create an environment favorable to such gro Yiiih. Considerations like these have led to the choice of selections with a view to some positive good to be derived from each. While not lowering the standard of literary merit, we have made moral considerations paramount.
