The Education of Catholic Girls

📖 The Scoop

The pages of this book are well worthy of careful pondering and consideration, and they will be of special value both to parents and to teachers, for it is in their hands and in their united, and not opposing action, that the educational fate of the children lies.May this treatise so ably written be a source of guidance and encouragement to those who are giving their lives to the education of Catholic children, and at the same time do something to dispel the distrust and to overcome the hostility shown in high quarters towards every Catholic educational endeavour.FRANCIS CARDINAL BOURNE, ARCHBISHOP OF WESTMINSTER.PREFACE4INTRODUCTION9CHAPTER I.
