! Some of the boys of our town .
| are indulging in a pastime
I dangerous, ungentlemanly and
| degrading in its very nature.
When we say boys we mean boys
from the age of four to twelve
when papa and mamma still have
a controlling hand over them.
We have known such little tots
1 get a nickle in so me'way, get an
i older boy to buy a cigar and
then get out in the dark; cut the
cigar in two or three pices; light
it and puff away on it. This
j sneaking business saps morality
j and manhood and leaves the
j child a wrecked factor for our
; care. Where do those children,
| for they are nothingbutchildren,
! get the idea of smoking? Fi orn
! papa and older boys. A child un
; der ten sees his brother or play
I mate at it, and he thinks he
| ought to be permited to do so.
! According to the law, a boy is
; not a man until he is twentyone
I years old. Up to that time the
1 father is responsible for all his
acts. How many fathers control
their boys? How many boys from
ten to twenty boss papa and do
as they please? Whose fault is it?
Every father has on especial
pride in the possibilities of his
son. The potentialities are there.
It is your duty to direct these
potentialities in channels of
usefulness and honor. Some
fathers will laugh when they
hear of "some dirty trick their
son has done, when it should
bring the blush of shame to his
cheeks. Set the boys a good
example. A boy is asked what
makes you smoke? Papa does or
Mr. So and So does and they are
good men. Fathers your boys
watch your every act, they are
following inyour footsteps. Are
your steps what they should be?
The only way to improve our
citizenship is to improve the
rising generation. Some of other
old heads can't let the pipe or
jug alone. This is a free country
and it is your busines and not
mine and I know it. But every
father, even though he does like
the music of the cork as it opens
his paradise, has a longing in his
heart to see his son become a
man of power and influence and
these little sneaking practices
in their youth instills dishon
esty in their make up. Live a
life worth emulation. Unless we
haveadded something to the sum
total of the capital stock of the
CommerciaZ Alen given our most careful attention .
