Good Company Tor 1909.
You arc careful what choice of
of friends the young people of
your household make. You do
not open wide the door to those
whose speech and buhavior betray
ill-breeding and lax morals. Arc
you as careful to shut it against
books and periodicals that present
vulgar and demoralizing pictures
of life and its purpose ? Perhaps
you are among those \\lio have
found that The youth's Compan
ion occupies the same place in
the family reading that the high
minded young man or woman
holds among your associates.
The companion is good without
being "goody-goody. " It is en
tertaining , it is informing. In
its stories it depicts life truly ,
but it chooses those phases of
life in which duty , honor , loya'ty '
ire the guiding motives.
