deportment”—that education which will “fit men and women for
service by developing and bringing into active exercise all their
faculties.”
As the subject is developed, there are clearly set forth the re-
sponsibilities and duties of parents, heartening counsel to guide the
teachers in their work, and practical instruction to those who devote
the years of their youth in preparing for a life of service.
At the close of each section, a page under the title “For Further
Study” presents references to other E.G. White books containing
related instruction. With the publication of the four volumes,
Funda-
mentals of Christian Education
(1923),
Messages to Young People
(1930),
The Adventist Home
(1952), and
Child Guidance
(1954),
the sources of available related E.G. White materials is greatly ex-
panded. In this printing the reference on the “For Further Study”
pages have been broadened to include these helpful sources.
That this volume may serve yet more fully as a guide to parents
and teachers in advancing “the most delicate work ever entrusted to
mortals,” that of bringing “man back into harmony with God,” is the
earnest desire of the Publishers and
The Trustees of the
Ellen G. White Publications
