should be cheerful period of life,
when the heightened shadows are

be followed by the long night of rest
which remains TO all living.
We have few young men who seem
to think it makes them manly and
noble to make themselvesappear tough
If you are tough, people will find it
ont without any effort on your part

Our young men who wish to succeed
in business must not spend their time
and money in simply having a good
time. They must not be disconnected
with our little city and think they are
too big for it. The right way to get
into larger place is to out-grow the

old days as we found them before so
ciety stole from them all their bright
