Keep Your Promises.
If a young man, starting out in life
wants to make a success, he- must
keep .his promises, and in order to do
that "he must not bind himself to meet
an obligation on a certain -day unless
he knows that he will be able to do it.
t
If you make a contract and violate it,
' your friend at once commences to. lose
confidence; and the second pledge is
i much easier broken than the first, the
third easier than the second, and so
on, ana the one wno is guilty ot such
acts, is soon kDow as unreliable hard
for him to secure employment, and
wheu he does take a job lie soon loses
it.
Fetter be like Davie Crockett, "be
sure you are right, then-go ahead."
