On This Day | Mixed Morality

Down in Nebraska several months ago, a boy was sentenced to the reform school for swearing. That sentence has lately been confirmed by the supreme court. From this it may be inferred that swearing is illegal, although laws on the matter are rarely enforced. This sentence seems a trifle hard on the boy, but it affords some food for thought for his elders; for swearing men are old enough to know better, as the boy very likely did not.
