Relationships With Girls.
Think of all girls as the future

that one of their most important func-
tions in life is to become the mothers
of healthy children who will make use

tude toward women.
The man who is fair will treat every
girl as he expects others to treat his
own sister There is no finer thing
than the friendship of a true girl and
a true man.
The man who seeks wine and loose
women is taking big chance. Far
from being strong, he is weak. The
man who does so, needlessly exposes
to danger the body and mind which
he has pledged to his country's serv-
ice He is disloyal to the cause
In an accident at sea, when every
ono is anxious to reach the lifeboats,
the rule for all men is, women and

an from other dangers, especially from
those dangers which threaten to ruin
their lives. We are fighting to pre-
