Instead of trying to build up haracter and live, a life that would jo profitable to them and to Clod, hey will hold on to a character that vill allow them to poke fun at each )ther through our county paper, toys, it is a mistake in you to do so, t may ho fun tor you now. It is iin for had boys. Remember that rou are in the hands of an angry >od. How are you going to give in account, to Him for your time lot spent in His service.
