 you may grow to be healthy and intelligent men and women. 



To our young men and women we may say: All persons who 

 are good for anything and who hope to be honorable and respectable 

 members of society, should marry and leave behind them children 

 who will properly represent them when they are gone, but be not 

 hasty in marrying because the best specimens of human beings are 

 never the children of young parents. 



To our older men and women we may say : All that you have 

 learned and all that you have accomplished can, and will be, trans- 

 mitted to future generations by others through the medium of 

 records, but in whatever measure you have developed your body 

 and your mind by patient and long continued efforts, that measure 

 can be transmitted only by yourself to your descendants, and what- 

 ever honor these descendants achieve in the future, that honor 

 will be your honor.
