To give young people ignorant of the proper careiand training of children opportunities to learn this, that they may better perform the duties of parenthood. 2. To bring into closer relations the home and the school, that parent and teacher may cooperate intelligently in the education of the child. 3. To surround the childhood of the whole world with that loving, wise care in the impressionable years of life, that will develop good citizens, instead of law-breakers and criminals. i 4. To rouse the whole community to a sense of its duty and responsi- bility to the blameless, dependent, and neglected children, because there is no philanthropy which will so speedily reduce our taxes, reduce our prison ex- penses, reduce the expense of institutions for correction and reform. The work of the Congress is civic work in its broadest sense. and every man or woman who is interested in the aims of the Congress is cordially invited to become a member and aid in the organized effort for a higher, nobler, national life, which can, only be attained through the individual homes. 5. To carry the mother-love and mother-thought into all that concerns or touches childhood in the Home, School, Church, State, and Legislation. One generation, one entire generation, of all the world of children UNDERSTOOD asthey SHOULD be, LOVED as they ASK to be, and so DEVELOPED as they MIGHT be, would more than begin the millenium. 13
