Beauty in dress is a good thing
rail at it who may. But it is q
lower beauty, for which highe,
beauty should not be sacrificed
They love dress too much who give
it their first thought, their best
time, or all their money; who for it
neglect the culture of mind or
heart, or the claims of others on
their service; who care more for
their dress than their disposition;
who are troubled more by an un-
fashionable bonnet than neglect
ed duty.
Boys, let us be men. Let us be
honest, earnest young men and we
shall thon be-nob4o- 1rror1 .-- f%uf1fU-
ness and gentleness are not one and
rarely do we find them living in
peace with each other. We may
never be what the world calls great,
but we can all be noble men, and
our nobleness can commence this
very hour and just where we are.
A young mans first and -truest act
of nobility is to love, honor and
protect his parents. When he be-
comes to proud too be seen walking
as staff to a tottering, helpless
father, or to stand blythe bedside
of her who is waiting a moment
this side of the river to catch one
more gaze through the fading shad-;
ow Of the past, of her little boy lost
in manhood, he is surely fast going
down the eminence of manliness.
When we launch our ships on the
waves of the great sea of
life, let us guide them by the light
of home, with the helm of the
cradle words of our mother. Not |
until we have left home and are
wanderers in the curious strange
ness of a strange land, unnoticed,
lonely and weary, will
we know of truth what mother
is. Then we feel she is good and |
we bless her. Never can we repay
our mothers kindness. Her with
cred form and her silvering braids
shall be defended till that day
cometh when He shall make up His
jewels-and then, we ween, Heav-
en- will know no kinder, no bright
er, no purer angel than she. When
the ever shining stars shall wane in
the fading of our vision, and the
noisy world will grow still in our
sleep of death, will we forget her;
not till then.
