words <strong>and</strong> actions. Do not make it necessary for<br />

your teachers to correct you again <strong>and</strong> again in<br />

regard to your personal habits.<br />

Correct all that is lax or careless in your speech<br />

or your habits. Do not pass this over as a matter of<br />

little consequence. Wherever you are, keep your<br />

room clean <strong>and</strong> tidy. Let no dirt or rubbish<br />

accumulate, "lest the Lord pass by <strong>and</strong> see your<br />

uncleanness." Christ is pure <strong>and</strong> holy <strong>and</strong><br />

undefiled. Do not grieve the heavenly angels by<br />

cherishing untidy, shiftless habits. It rests with<br />

yourselves to decide whether you will be accepted<br />

by the Lord as vessels unto honor, fit for his use.<br />

The Lord desires to see in you a daily<br />

improvement. Your parents sent you to school with<br />

the hope that you would obtain an education that<br />

would make you more helpful in the home, more<br />

obedient, more kind, more thoughtful, The school<br />

term is about to close, <strong>and</strong> as you return to your<br />

homes, let your parents see that the school has<br />

accomplished much for you, making you a blessing<br />

in the home <strong>and</strong> in the Lord's work.<br />
