Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Better Than Men
Both of these theories may be wrong. It is possible that all children come into the world with a certain number of well-known natural qualities - good, bad, strong, and weak - in no two alike, and for which they are in no way responsible; and that what they become in their mature years depends largely, if not entirely, upon home train ing and the care bestowed upon them by the government under whose laws they exist. Strong, healthy, intellec tual, and moral parents, aided by a wiseand honestly administered government, assist each other in forming characters which make fine men and women. But without the combination of those pa rental qualities ever actively engaged in instructing and controlling, sustained by a wise political organization, there is usually but little development of the higher and better qualities of our nature, either moral or intellectual.
