The making of a beautiful and happy home!

(J.R. Miller)

A true home
is one of the most sacred of places.
It is a sanctuary into which men flee from the world's perils and alarms.
It is a resting-place to which, at close of day - the weary retire to gather new strength for the battle and toils of tomorrow.
It is the place . . .
  where love learns its lessons,
  where life is schooled into discipline and strength,
  where character is molded.

Few things we can do in this world are so well worth doing - as the making of a beautiful and happy home! He who does this - builds a sanctuary for God, and opens a fountain of blessing for men.

Far more than we know - do the strength and beauty of our lives depend upon the home in which we dwell. He who goes forth in the morning from a happy, loving, prayerful home - into the world's strife, temptation, struggle, and duty - is strongly inspired for noble and victorious living.

The children who are brought up in a true home - go out trained and equipped for life's battles and tasks - carrying a secret of strength in their hearts, which will make them brave and loyal to God, and will keep them pure in the world's severest temptations!
