TEN ''DON'TS FOR
60 YOUNG MEN,

BROCTON, MASS Special DR..
Albert Marion Hyde, whose ten
don'ts for women" have been spread
broadcast, celebrated Christmas by
formulating ten "don'ts for young
men. His product, just as it came
from the typewriter, is as follows:
Ten Don'ts for Young Men,
Do not speak OF the old gent
and the old woman Fathers and
mothers are a necessary evil in the
present system of tn igs. They have
spoken respectfully oil you when out
siders could not see anything on
which they could hang even a small
compliment
DO not give all your attention 10
education of the brains on the out
side OF your head. Football hair and
letter on your jersey are not a suf-
ticient training for life. The young
fellow who is old-fashioned enough
TO so to school for study still has a
ylace In the world.
n DO not invest your nickel in a
glass OF beer, then afterward critIcise
he other fellow who has invested his
'nlckeI in a savings bank. Beer checks
ana saving bank checks as invest
ments are not in the same class
DO not put the money of your
tailor and your washwoman in IS
opera seats and 50 theater tickets
They may prefer to spend their earn
ings in some other way.
10 not measure your job entirely
by the size OF the pay envelope and
the length of the vacation. Highway
robbery is an ideal vocation measured
in these ways.
do not try to get rich quick;
smarter men than you, who have
come TO town without cent, have
tried il and lost all they had.
DO not wrong a woman. Every
woman is some mothers daughter.
The white life you ask from your
mothers daughter YOU have no right
10 take from the daughter of another.
DO not defile your tongue with
profane and vulgar speech. revealing
ignorance and showing the coarse
ness in your soul.
DO not think you have sounded all
the ocean of truth when you have
let out all your little line. The ocean
on whose shore Newton had gathered
only few pebbles can never be all
in your tin cup.
DO not be a stranger to the
church of your father. The old pew
looks lonesome without you. Your
rather went to his honor and his
prosperity straight from the church
door The path is still there. You
need the Church and the Church
needs you"
