Boys, Take Notice

·     The better boy you are, the better man you will be.

·     If you do not now get the habit of saving, the chances are that you never will.

·     Make friends of people who are along in years.  They have traveled a long way and they can tell you the best road to a happy life.

·     Keep away from boys that are not clean—clean in their clothes, clean in their lips and clean in their hearts.

·     Look on ahead and see what needs to be done, and do not wait for father or mother to ask you to do it.

·     Do the best you can to have the chores all done when father gets home from a business trip.

·     Be a lad that can be trusted in every spot and place.

·     “I don’t want to!” drawn out with a whine when you are asked to do some little chore about the farm doesn’t sound very encouraging for a good, strong, true, manly future.  The habits of to-day will weave themselves into the life of to-morrow.

·     The world has a thousand places for the cheery-hearted boy, but the sour and selfish young man will wear his shoe soles to the uppers looking for a job, and never find one.

·     Are you collecting a little library of your own?  It is a good sign to see a boy love good books.  Always pick out something to read that will help you to be a better boy.

·     A sunny face is worth more than much money.
