Your character is constantly forming. It is your business to keep out of the way of bad influences, and submit yourself to the moulding of the good. Keep in mind the great truth that you are forming a character for eternity. Some years ago, there were found on the banks of the Mississippi River the tracks of a human being made in the soft clay, which in time became hardened, and formed into stone. Now, the impression is immovable. You now resemble this soft clay. Everything with which you come into contact makes an impression. But as you grow older your character acquires solidity, and is less and less affected by these influences, till at length it will be like the hard stone, and the impressions made upon you and this season will become confirmed habits.
