An impalpable veil of gloom and poverty then spreads over the youth that is greedy of happiness; aspirations are checked; the horizon of life is clouded; and many of these poor young men are disheartened, and rebel against their lot, and many are miserably wrecked rather than accept the realities of life with its toil and sacrifices, which unexpectedly open to their sight.
