Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 129, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 16 June 1917 — “Putting Off.” [ARTICLE]

“Putting Off.”

Give up the very unwise habit of “putting off.” Putting off will result only in your giving up your good intentions. There is never any time like the present, and no matter how busy a woman may be, she can always find time to show some little kindness or extend some little courtesy that may be the means of cheering or strengthening another around her less strongwilled. Putting off until tomorrow what you could do today is a sure way to upset things in general, for procrastination is surely the thief of time. Before one realizes just how it happened the days have flown by and we have not accomplished one-half the things we had intended to. There is no time like the present, and if we were wise we would use every minute we are sure of instead of “putting off” until that future that may not come. —Exchange.
