52 Ancestors: Week 8 (Feb 19-25) – "Learn the Child To Do Good Deeds" 1897

The optional theme for 52 Ancestors Week 8 is "Good Deeds" 

and I found this Essex Free Press article about the 

South Essex Teacher's Conference that was held in Amherstburg, Ontario 

dated April 16, 1897.

Essex Free Press

"Learn the child to do good deeds. 

Take the child to your neighbours home where there is sickness;

let him take the money out of his own bank and 

use it to alleviate suffering."
