The Cost of q Boy.

The following good recitation for
boy was found in the Chicago Advance:
It does not take as much money to
live in the country. or in a small town,
as it does to live in the city. I read the
other day that it cost SIS, 900 to bring
up city boy and educate him and dress
him we'll 1 said to myself, "That is
because everything in the city has to be
bought and living is high But be-
gan to study the thing. and found out
that even country boy cost his parents
good deal.
When you count what a boy eats and
what he wears, and the schoolbooks he
has to have and the doctor bills that
have to be raid when he gets the measles
or the scarlet fever, he will cost his
folks at least 500 a year. l guess if
boy is pretty bad to smash things or to
kick his shoes right out he costs more
than that. So when I am 81 and old
enough to do for myself l shall have
cost father more than 50, 600.
Mother cooked my victuals, made my
clothes and patched them, washed and
ironed for me, took care of me when
was little fellow and whenever was
sick, and she never charged anything
fOr mat II she were Ueau anu 1aGuer
had to hire all that done, it would cost
him another 500 year more, and
that's So, 900 worth of work mother
will have done for me by the time am
. man. Four thousand dollars for boy !
What do you think of that?
These are hard times. When parents
put 81, 900 into a boy, what have they a
right to expect of him? Is it fair for a
boy to play truant at school? Is it fair
for him to play ball. go in swimming
or hang around town all of the time,
when maybe his fathers potatoes are
not dug nor the wood brought in for his
mother? Is it fair for him to disappoint
them by swearing and drinking?
Some of our parents have put about all
the property they have into us boys and
girls. If we make spittoons and whisky
jugs of ourselves, they will be poor in
deed. But if we make good citizens and
substantial men they will feel as If
they had good pay for bringing us up.
