Respect is an endless chain to ap-

Respect is one of the most rigid rules
governing our military equipment Ii
both army and navy and any dlsre-
spect to any one is summarily dealt
with as a breach of etiquette that
will not be tolerated, hence its value
as part of a mans accomplish
mcntS.
Love, intelligence, character Or
genius is to force respect. and 10 get
it you must be courteous, kind and
affabIe, all traits that demand and
receive respect. Disrespect has
ruined the prospects of many a
thoaghtless boy aud girl. How can
YOU expect consideration from a per-
son to whom you show any dlSre-
spect? Respect is born of love-
and without respect there is no love,
for they are inseparabie and begins
with the Individual who will natur-
ally love himself. He therefore must

to hear a boy refer to his father as
the odd man" the governor the

TO hear your boy refer 10 you ah,s
way or of his mother as the old
lady?" Still they do it, and why ?
Is it not just as easy TO say father
and mother? Would the boy allow
bis parents to hear him refer to
them in this disrespectful manner?
Well, hardly. And why? Because
he knows it is wrong and his pride
comes to his rescue-he is ashamed.
Then why does he do it? He sim
ply lacks respect for himself when
others hear him. for his parents
when he does it and right here IS
the turning point in bis future Ell,
forts for success. Anyb boy or girl
who DOES not respect others Is shy
OF one thing that goes to make up a
true man or a noble woman, and
how can they expect to receive that
