Profane swearing Is abumnable. Vulgar
language is disgusting. Loud language is
impolie. lnqulsliveness Is offensive. Tell

above vices and aim at usefulness. This
is the road in which to become respectable.
Walk in 1t. Never bc ashamed of honest
labor. lrlde Is u Curse--a hateful vice.
Never be discouraged, but pUrseverc, and
