Strange Parental Love When one compares the love o these latter day parents for thei children with those in years pas you aie puzzled to decide as t whether they rtnlly.love them o late them. We had in our Sun ago, the Prayer of a good Mot he por a son, so as to give him to th Lord. Hence whip her prayer were answered in the gift of Sar uel she carried him to the tempi lm ndmlni-itc'i' ir> I'd! 'hr- pi'iesi Quite a contrast with patents am children in this day cf ours. Th gift of children to many parent now simply- means for them to b givert to the Devil. They are no even taught th<? "i.oPiV Pi-aye and know nothing about..ilm.Tei Commandments. Instead of theibeing trained in the Sunday schoo and church, they are allowed t? walk the streets in drovgs all da; - Sunday, filthy and dirty as the; . can be. It does seem that parent shotfl'd at least desire to seg thei children succoed in life and conn to a good end. But it is uttorP impossible for. them to exngct thr when their children that shouh be in bed at nrght are on t h < _ ^ streets amLthitir parents know ah ftekrtely nothing of -their vrherea oouts. Children will nevej- enc right when they afe started wronj! and permitted to go wr<?ng thri their lives. Just like Eli was pun iahed by God for his failure ti correct his children and finally died as a result of the same. Sc jjtii trills m muay Wi'll do made tc sht*l bitter tears for their willful negligence in the rearing of theii children. They do not Rive them religious consideration during their their sins, they whoop and holler at their funerals as if they were sprayed with boiling1 water.
