Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: Again
knock for entrance into your merry circle.
This time l come sincerely hoping you
will admit me. Sometimes 1 feel that our
boys and girls Of today are budding into
manhood and womanhood as carelessly and
thoughtlessly as a baby would enter a
lions den. They seemingly never give a
thought to the very seriousness of life.
You comprehend, of course, l am speaking
collectively, for there are rare exceptions.
And they are indeed priceless gems.
But girls, won't you heed just one sec
ond and take the advice of one who has
the destiny of us girls at heart? Are
you, as young woman, doing all you
can to help our young men friends live
up to the standard every young man must
to be man? Are you cultured and
fined in your language, and possessing all
those virtuous qualities SO precious to man?
Or do you expect him to live as he
life? Girls, there is only one in thou
sand that can do it, so girls, you see
that is our duty, as girls, to do which
instinct dictates to us and what we, upon
right, and your sake his sake, and the
sake of our nation, never, never yield to
the pretty whims Of any young man.
There must be a change in our social
grave problem I almost decide morals
have been excluded from the minds and
ambitions OF tho younger set--my set. My
last words and earnest request to boys
today, is to have some definite purpose
some motive for living. Today is mine, is
yours. 10 use or to waste, SO why not let
this this be our motto: Living to Serve
With many kind wishes to auntie and
cousins,
