Book excerpt: Excerpt from Good Form and Christian Etiquette For the same purpose men learn grace of carriage, -how to enter and leave a room, how to moderate every tone; and practise laboriously in private, to fix as habit any thing which they believe to be desirable, and eradicate anything that would be a hindrance, so that they may never be taken off guard by any rush Of feeling, and so jeopardize the selfish interests which are at stake. For the same end little children are put into training of the most exacting sort, and grow up almost perfect Copies of some great master in certain forms which, while in them selves empty, yet are like buckets, capable of holding anything. And until Christians are willing to labor as faithfully to become win some themselves, and train their children to do the best of all work in the best of all forms, they have not yet come to love the truth as the world loves self.
