Nothing opens the door so wide to
vice, to crime, to evil habits of every
description, as the absence Of occu-
patton. The downward course of many
a promising youth, the ruin of many

do. The faculties must be active, the
energies must be at work, and if not
employed for good, they will be for
evil.
