In order to preserve my own personal purity and to encourage it in others, as being one important factor of a sound character, I promise, with trust in God's help and guidance to try my utmost—
 * (1) To cultivate such habits as will help purity in thought, speech and action;


 * (2) To abstain, while showing obedience to the wishes of my father (or guardian), from such engagements as are likely to be harmful to personal purity; and


 * 3) To persuade my friends and school-mates to do likewise.
