Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study.
I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer.
I will read something that requires effort, thought and con-

Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do

don't want to do- -just for the exercise. I will nut show

I will not show it.
Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I

not one bit, not find fault with anything, and nut try to im-
