To recognize people accurately and to be able to call by name is a
wonderful asset in business or in social life. Your children can have
this advantage if you will see to it that they realize its importance
and make a deliberate effort while young. They will easily form the
habit and thank you for it all their lives.
The ideas and principles in this chapter should be studied by the
parent and imparted to the child as he advances in years and becomes
able to use them. Do not make the common error of waiting too long
or expecting the child to get this for himself. We all like to have
children remember our names as well as to have elders do so. The
pictures which appear on the preceding pages were for the purpose of
practice and should be learned.
