There are at least two reasons
which have prompted the writln. of
this article: First, the necessity for
some one to call the attention of the
young to the evils of this and similar
unmanly and detestable habits.
The second cause that moved the
writer to pen these lines is the pro
found interest that he feels in the
young men of today, who are to be
our leaders of tomorrow, and In the
hope of helping, at least, tomo to
loftier ideals and to a plane of purer
and nobler manhood. If only In a
limited degree It Fhall accomplish
these ends the author will feel amply
repaid for his feeble elfort.
