    About this ebook

    That Last Waif; or, Social Quarantine is a work by Horace Fletcher. Fletcher was an American food faddist and author, here appealing for better support of children born into unfortunate and poor environments. Excerpt: "Social Quarantine is of first importance because a strict recognition of it applied to children during the habit-forming period of their growth will render greatest aid to morals and religion and also to health. An appreciation of God and that stimulating, rational and healthful reverence for good that constitutes true religion must needs follow as a natural result of Perfect Moral and Social Quarantine."
