Il Is a matter OF regret for all right
minded men that the present genera
ton Of young men seem 10 have for
gotten habits Of thrift and industry,
You may look out upon the streets
nearly any day and see young men
loahng around without any pretense
OF work. only lingering a cigarette
and trying to look pretty, whilst their
old fathers are working hard 70 sup
port them IN idleness We often wish
there was a law on the statute books
which would make Il possible 10 give
such young men an opportunity TO do
a few days work on the rock pile. Il
seems almost as n an manliness
and honor were obliterated from the
mind and thought Of such, and that
they have no desire or ambition 10 be-
come aught bar street loafers. and
they seem 20 have forgotten that work
