As determined by the ten-year research of the Character Education Institution, Washington, D. C. Make out your own "character graph." Practice self-character education to establish a foundation for a true success and your citizenship in U. S. A. A very high character is a straight line under "always," a low character is under "sometimes" and "seldom," a jagged character is "always" in some virtues and "seldom" in others. Character will become strong and true if you make yourself do persistently, by will-power, the things that are expressions in conduct and activities of these basic civilization virtues.
