Keep Your Promises.

If a young man, starting out in life
wants to make a success, he must
keep his promises, and in order to do
that he must not bind himself to meet
an obligation on certain day unless
he knows that he will be able to do it.
II you make contract and violate it,
your friend at once commences to lose
confidence; and the second pledge is
much easier broken than the first, the
third easier than the second, and so
on, and the one who is guilty of such
acts, is soon know as unreliable-hard
for him to secure employment, and
when he does take a job he soon loses
it.

sure you are right, then GO ahead"
