Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 31: August, 1928 Scout work, bee-hive girl programs, boyology, and other studies Of the teens, - all make known that play is as important in the life of the boy and the girl, and not improbably in adult lives also, as is work itself - as important, perhaps, as prayer and divine worship.

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 66: January 14, 1904 If the young people were taught these things in the spirit thereof, and were induced by example and proper family government, in love, to practice them, no complaint would need be made about neglect of duty, and hoodlumism. But this cannot be done unless parents themselves are exemplary, and this, evidently, they are not always. There are idlers among them, also, t...

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 66: May 26, 1904Another question for Christians. A few years ago, a boy in his innocent years claimed to have walked and talked with God. If you look upon such a thing as absurd, why do you take so much means and lose so much breath over his doctrines and teachings? Why have you resorted to everything known to man to persecute his followers and to destroy his work? Why are those Mormons...

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 68: June 21, 1906 Briefly stated, then, the true doctrine of the origin and destiny of man is this: Man is the actual, spiritual offspring of God. His first appearance, as far as we have any record, was in the world preceding this, and this earth-life is the second stage in his existence. He is gradually rising and growing in intelligence, and will continue to do so, worlds upon worlds...

Excerpt from Improvement Era, Vol. 30: December, 1926 That there is a proper relationship is clearly defined in the word of the Lord, and in the teachings of the Redeemer himself. Give to Caesar that which belongs to him, render obedience to the civil law: Give to God that which belongs to him, and render allegiance and service to him. This can be done very readily if people can only be brought to understand the proper relationship of these t...

Excerpt from The Improvement Era, Vol. 45: July, 1942 The president of the United States in the last years of the 'fifties was a bewildered, befuddled man. Though he had great pride in his administra~ tive potentialities and capabilities, he had allowed his executive depart~ ments to become infested with graft and corruption. With banners flying and a ruffle of drums, a great expedition had been sent against a defenseless peo~ ple who wanted...

Excerpt from The Improvement Era, Vol. 38: July, 1935 This was only a little of the pleading which William Marquette put forth to win his suit. Susan Brooks was firm and steadfast and when Susan made up her mind it took more than a little obstacle to sway her, and Bill was only an obstacle, bigger, perhaps, than she would admit to herself. She loved him, yes, she really did love him, but what is love in this generation compared with duty? She...

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints¿ Millennial Star, Vol. 67: July 13, 1905 We felt sorry for Mr. Macallum's ignorance and narrow-mindedness.

Well, that afternoon there was a great stir in government circles. I w...

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 67: February 2, 1905 Shortly after this visit to the revival meeting, the Christian Age of January 18th, 1905, came to our table. In looking over this number, we found an article entitled, How to Enter the Kingdom, which, it stated, was a study of the International Lesson for January 29th, 1905. The text was from John iii: 1-15. As it is our business in these lands to preach the Gospel...

Excerpt from The Improvement Era, Vol. 37: April, 1934 Back in the glorious and obscure past, an ancestress to the Dancey Clan had served as maid-in-wait ing to a Queen. That this was the unadulterated truth and not the figment of a fancifuhdream, was borne out by a huge chest, over ¿owing with silk and satin and velvet gowns - musty and mil dewed and brittle with age. Mar cia and Em spent many happy hours in the Dancey attic, trying on, danc...

Excerpt from The Latter-Day Saints' Millennial Star, Vol. 67: June 22, 1905 So in life. The wise man must be content to possess his soul in patience while he toils against a hundred difficulties and discouragements, until the time is ripe for him to achieve the fruits of his hard, earnest labor.
