Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Putting in a simple and brief form the sub stance of the author's larger book Strength of Will. 1 The author addresses himself directly to the Catholic Boys of America, but he trusts Catholic Girls will understand that, as they bear equal responsibility for the future of their Faith and Fatherland, the booklet is meant equally for them.
