Ye should consider the question of goodly
character as of the first importance. It is incumbent upon
every father and mother to counsel their children over a
long period, and guide them unto those things which lead
to everlasting honour.
Encourage ye the school children, from their earliest
years, to deliver speeches of high quality, so that in their
leisure time they will engage in giving cogent and effective
talks, expressing themselves with clarity and eloquence.
