Speaking at a Sunday School gathering at Palmerston North the Hon. Geo. Fowlds held the first place where religious instruction should be imparted to children was in their own homes. Sunday schools and churches might well second the efforts of the parents, but things were in a parlous state unless there was religious education in the home itself. He thought Sunday schools might do something by making a crusade to encourage family worship and religious instruction of the children in their own homes. If the Sunday schools could do that they would .do a great deal to supply a solid foundation for the great Nation to in future occupy these islands Of New Zealand,.
