ways with us the ideal never but the
real boy always has an ideal in the
person of someone who once was a
real boy himself hence we should all
be upright lest the boy find the real is
not so good as the ideal The motto
of the real boy should be Aim High
Keep everlastingly at it dont stop
have your ideal ancl attain it whatever
the cost Dont be satisfied with being
just an ordinary man try to be a good
man a manly man The sneaker en
livened his lecture with stories and
cident s from the life of the real boy
some humorous some almost pathetic
but each one carried a point with it
Dr Handier is a good talker and he
hould bp greeted by a large audience
when he lectures here again the mid
