Nothing is OF greater Importance
than the choice of friends If your
companions make you unhappy and
discontinued, If they rouse what is
wrong and resentfu in your nature,
Shun them as you would hateful
peslilence. II your companions help
you to look at life hopefully, to labor
cheerfully, and await results patient
ly; If they inspire you with bright,
sweet thoughts and aspirations for
whatsoever things are pure and noble,
If they help you TO live and to grow up
to what is best in you, then "grappe
them 70 thy soul with hoops of steel. "
The most of our farmer folks are
plain llvers; their homes are without
modern improvements, and the boys
and glrls who get out OF such homes 10
whele all their actions are timed by
the ringing OF boil, where electric
lights and steam heat and hot and cold
baths with all th, other attractions
anu commences that abound, at once
can see the great discrepancy between
that and their home life, and dissatis-
faction is at once implanted. They
want some easier, cleaner and speedier
way OF making money than farming,
and so get their kind parents TO use
the little they have laid up for age, IN
training them for doctors, lawyers,
professors. cashiers, etc. The country
has many farmers who have been i'm
poverished, and their last days made
destitute by children they unwisely
tried to help on to business prosper
ity. There are countless mothers al
most staggering under the burdens OF
their lonely kitchens, while their
daughters are away being trained for
higher circles than that of home.
