Learn A Trade.

1T no tire IN she history Of the South was
the absence Of the knowledge Of the mechan-
ic arts more severely felt than within the last
seven years: People are beginning however
to have their "eyes opened to the dignity and
Importance Of labor, and the great value Of
the mechanic TO the body polite. The Rich
mond Examiner, in commenting on the qnes-
ton, says There Is a growing tendency
among short-sigtei parents and guardians TO
put their boys in Offices, under false i'm
preston that such occupation is more gem
teel that the learning Of trade. This is
observation-disclosures notion, and one that IL
likely to entail upon their children troubles
and sorrows and heartaburnings during al.
the rest of their lives. All business Is sub.
ject to fluctuations, which the wisdom Of
men and Of governments has thus far been
unable to control, and when commercial or
lnatcil depression occurs, those who are
first TO suffer, and among the most helpless
victims, ARE 6ook-kecpers, clerkB, copyists
and Office attendants Of every Kind. At such
time the workman, in number Of msehanical
trades, can find employment on his own nc
count
