life or degrades character to be enter
tanned in your heart, but rather cherish
those high and noble qualities which viii
make you to be Of general helpfulness in
the world and give you the strength
which comes with the consciousness OF
being right. Establish early in life high
ideals in regard to achievements and make
everything minister to your progress.
