Has a boy vicious habits? Is he profane, vulgar, lazy, dishonest? Is he unworthy the society of your sister, your mother? If so,you had better let him pass by. Cheer him on by words of encouragement to better things, but such a lad is not fitted to be your comrade un-. til thoroughly reformed.

Remember that comradeship is very close fellowhip and ought to be of a pure and manly type, into which one's mother or sister may be invited to join. Choose a high type of manly boy for a yoke-fellow. Be a worthy comrade yourself.

COMRADES, ATTENTION !

Keep upon your tongue pure speech,

In your thoughts allow no lust ; Manly life's within your reach—

Do not grovel in the dust.

Pure in thought and warm in heart, Fight the wrong with all your might;

In life's conflict bear your part, Daring always to do right.

Be an active, earnest man,

Always noble, trustful, true ; Help another when you can,

For this helping strengthens you,
