It concerns the country that each home be a world, profound, respected, communicating to Its members an Ineffaceable moral Imprint., But I cfore pursuing the subject further let us rUl ourselves of a misunderstanding. Family feeling, like all beautiful things, has Its caricature, which Is family egoism. Some families arc like barred ami bolted citadels, their memliers organized for the exploitation of the whole world. Everything tlmf does not directly concern them Is Indifferent to them. They live like colonists I had aJinostSwid. intruders In the society around them. Tlicir particular1 stu Is pushed to such nn excess that they make enemies of the whole human race. In their small way they resemble those powerful societies formed from time to time through the ages which possess themselves of unit rule and for which no one outside their own community counts. This is the spirit that has sometimes made the family seem a retreat of egoism xxhich It was necessary to destrov for the public safety. Blit ns patriotism and Jingoism are as far apart as the east from the west, so are family feeling and clannishness. Here xve are talking of right family feeling, and nothing else In the world can take its place, for In It lie in germ all those fine and simple virtues whi.l. assure the strength agd duration of social Institutions. And the very base of family feeling Is respect for the past, for the best possessions of a family are Its common memories. An intangible. Indivisible and Inalienable capital, these souvenirs "constitute a sacred fund that each raember of a family ought to consider more precious than anything else. he possesses.
