INFLUENCE OLE EXAMPLE

The natural education of the
home is prolonged far into life.
indeed it never entirely ceases.
But the time arrives in the pro
cess OF years, when the home
ceases to exercise an exclusive
influence in the formation of
character and is succeeded by tbe
more artificial education of the
school, and the companionship
of friends and comrades which
continue to mould the character
by the powerful influence of ex.
ample. Men of all ages cannot
help initiating those with whom
they associate. If young men
are wisely influenced and directed
and exert their own free energies.
they will seek the society of those

to initiate their example. There
are persons whom to know ia to
love, honor and admire, and
others whom to know is to shun
and despise. Live with persons
