Children Of tho Rich ''LittIa
Patterns Of Anasmlc Primnsss"
Mr.. CHUBB TALKS PLAINLY.
Too Many Toys and Servants Cecil Rhodes
Stunning Exponent Of Fallaclous NotIaa
That Money Can Buy Education.

New York, April 12--'Little patterns
of anaemic primness" is what Percivsl
Clubs, the well known educator, terms
the children OF the rich in the discussion
of whose disadvantages before the Society
OF the Study of Life at the Tuxedo, Madi-
son avenue and Fifty-ninth street. he cited
Cecil Rhodes as a shining exponent of
the fallacy that money could buy any
thing-even an education"
He started with the proposition that
''it does not take a Croesus to spoil
child" and proved conclusively that the
younsster who weathers an atmosphere
of unbounded wealth and comes out
neither a prig nor a cynic is made OF
Spartan stun indeed. His excess of
clothes, OF toys, OF recreation and OF
pampering and his lack of father and
mother love called for most caustic CEN
sure
THE first misfortune of the children
of the rich." said Mr.. Club. sis that
there are so few OF them. A house
thronging with children is the desirable
thing. The higher we go in the social
scale the less we fnd. The richer a man
becomes the more difficult is his life.
Take a walk down the avenue and
look at the houses OF the rich. They

ness. He has too many servants.

himself, when he gets 10 school as not
worth anything. To be 80 cockered and
pampered destroys his manhood. He has
too many clothes.
"The children OF our rich people are
disreputably clean. The boy Is strait
waistcoated I'm his fnery when a good
roll in the mud would be the best thing
in the world. Parents should encourage
him in the making OF mud pies. Such
childre mare little patterns OF anaemic
primness
There Is another fallacy of the rich
that education can be bought, that edu-
cation can do anything. Mr.. Rhodes was
an example of that. He proved IL In the
provisions Of his great gift. He was not
incorporated i'm the real life of the world,
the throbbing tide OF family affection.
All that was lost TO him. But like the
rich parent he believed that money could
buy anything.

the child wants the love of country, the
reverence of lather and mother, and that
no money can give. / tell you the de-
cline OF fatherhood is much more disas-
trous than the partial decline OF mother
hood"
Mr. Club made a strong plea for the
public school as the proper place for the
children of the rich, and while he did
not depreciate its dangers, contended that
moral influences in other Institutions
were by no means what parents thought.
1.-The bedrock of Americansm is the
public school," he said.
