PROFANITY
Several I linen recently, we have been
disgusted at foul-mouthed. wicked
young while imff spewing out sluices
of profanity on Hartsvllle street* :
seemingly without regard as to wheth
er men, women, ar ehihlmti must he?r
their hell-lM>rn ulternnces. Perhaps
? hey ^ think its smart or witty.? But
d??e?i <?<d ami decent people Ihhik
so?
We seldom ever hear a negro curse
??r swear. Are i hey not bolter In prin
ciple than some of our conceited. oor
rnpt hearted while men? Of all t lie
-ins a vile man can commit, curbing
is without douhl the most unprofitable
gulping down t he ""devil's hook with
out it even being hailed.
In all the world's 1.4 story has pro
f.inity ever benefitted any human he
iiiir a> much as one cent? No. not one.
Mauty of man's sins brings him a
teni|Mtrary material heneflt. or a tem
porary physical pleasure: even though
fearful penalties await hlin. But the
benefits of profanity: what are they?
I .oss of respect ability ; disgust. and
eoutompt.
Profanity is not only wieked. but
real dirty, proceeding from an uu
eiean ' heart. It not .only shock* re
llgotls people, but disgusts decent peo
ple to luvir it belched out.
The young man who wishes t . ? site
ceed in life must take advantage Of
??very tiling that Is liptl ft iiiir and will
! < M' him on And swearing w ill 1m>

Ciglit ?">rt of girls his conversation
iiiu-i be ke|<t el??an. .because a man
that um-s profanity- nowadays is at
oiui* considered as coarse and vufgnr. !
Swearing U a sign of ignorance and
weakness of character. Von will no
t ice that men of inlclligon<*e and
foi eef lilne-^ w h?N4* word- carry weight
Mini command confidence, use simple/
plain words, delightful t>> hear.
The only fit place outside of hell
for cursing and swearing 1* in the *a
loons; and thanks he unto (J?-d. the
decent |>eoplo of the itimmI old t*. S. A.
