BORN EQUAL BUT NOT FREE.


Here is a curious error" said the
schoOlboy, as he laid down his I'm
Gle Toms Cabin" and turned 10 the
encyclopedia. The author uses the
expression All men are born free and
equal"
Well, what is the matter with
that?" inquired the schoolboy's uncle
Why, the quotation should be: All
men are born equal There is no
free in it,
DO you mean to tell me that Jeffer-
son did not write free and equal in
the Declaration
That's what he didn't
Il will bet you
Don't do it, uncle. Remember YOU
have family to support and they will
need all your money. The word free
does not occur there, see!" And he
placed the big book before his mis-
guided relative.
"'Oh, l know better | will get a
copy of the Constitution in one of my
old books. 1 have heard that quoted
so often | know what | am talking
about
You have heard it quoted wrong
every time you heard the free in il.
After they had found the good and
reliable old book and all the rest of
the authorities, the uncle ungracious-
ly gave up. But he hated to do So
1t seems impossible to correct that
wrong impression. The boy was right
Yet people go on Indefinitely making
free" and inaccurate quotation
