SING a SONG.

Ii you'll sing a song as you go along,
In the face of the real or fancied wrong,
IN spite of the doubt if you'll fight it out,
And show a heart that is brave and
stout;
II you'll laugh at the jeers and refuse
the tears,
You'll force the ever-reluctant cheers
That the world denies when coward
dies,
10 give to the man who bravely tries
And you'll win success with little
song
If you'll sing the song as you so along!
# you'll sing a song as you trudge along,
You'll see that the singing will make you
strong.
And the heavy load and the rugged road
And the sting and the stripe of the tor
tuous goad
Will soar with the note that you set
ahoat;
That the beam will change to a tritling
mote;
That the world is bad when you are sad,
And bright and beautiful when glad.
That all you need is a little song
If you sing the song as you trudge along!

Some of the bravest, best-hearted
men OF the world are addicted to the
habit of prOfane swearing on occasion.
lhey 90 not mean anything in partic-
ular. They employ the language for
mere emphasis. At the same time. any
ciean-minded person who uses profan-
ity will apologize for the habit. Why
persist in doing something for which
one is obliged to apologize? Look
about you Listen to q swearing boy.
lie has caught the lowest oaths that
come from the lowest and vilest sur
roundings. Along with the profane
and indecent words you realize the
fact the boy must have profane and
indecent thoughts. Suppose it were
your own boy? And why not if you
use profane language? You are his
eXemplar. Hear q woman curse and
swear. Does it not go through one
like an electric shock? The ideal of
Womanhood is dragged down. HUI
mainly is debased by it. One grows
sick at heart. You feel the brute side
womanhood and a thing seems all the
distance between heaven and hell. ut
sounds so differently from a woman"
There's your double standard of mo-
rality-a false standard that has
wrought incredible mischief. But
again: Does the swearer realize what
it means to handy sacred words? Has
he not lost appreciation of delicacy?
The name of God ought never to be
spoken save in reverence, spoken when
the heart is tender and a prayer is in
the soul. There are those about one
who hold the name in awe and who
love and trust the Great Beneficence
How shall they feel when a name, which
is to them above every name, is drag
ged into the mud of careless speech?
AS you would not couple the name of
your mother or wife or daughter in
coarse ribaldry so you should not take
in vain the name of the noble Naza-
rene. There are worse habits than
swearing-many worse. There are
those who have never sworn an oath
who are liars, thieves, hypocrites, muir
derers. That is true. Nevertheless
the man who doesn't swear has the
better chance to be decent, courteous,
self-respecting gentleman.
