IDLENESS

No man has the right to be idle.
Six days thou shalt work. 1t is a
direct command resting upon every
1-diyidual. There are no conditions,
circumstances or positions In life
which authorize one to spend his
time in idleness.
The fact that an individual is
rich does not excuse him from labor.
Every man, regardless of his wealth.
his position, his possessions or his
power, should be made to labor
every day in the week. For one to
fold his hands in idleness and leave
his brain %unoccupied is to make of
himself a nuisance and an incubator
of evil. ;
The amusement craze Of today is
the direct evolution of idleness.
There are SO many idle men and idle
women that 1t has been possible to
build up great amusement enter
prtses. The idleness . f people is
being exploited by the ayar1cious.
The breaking down of society Is
another evolution of idleness. Idle
women, no home duties, no children
to care for, no domestic labor to
perform, transforms them into dan
gerous social factors. They become
the agents, or they become the OBJ
Jects of every vicious design and de-
sire.
Take the young boys and the
young girls with idle hands, idle
brains, and unoccupied time. They
become the agents of the Devil, and
expensive menaces to society. The
aged men and women with nothing
to occupy their time or employ their
hands become a burden to them
selves and a sorrow to all around
them.
1dleness curses youth. damns the
middle aged, and brings sorrow and
premature death to the aged. Idle
ness fills the Sens Of dissipation,
crowds the pool rooms, occupies the
parks. filters up the streets. and
gluts the avenues of traffic. Idle
ness is mans curse and the devils
best weapon.
