de kids such foolishness dat gets
grouty-it's because dey teaches any
ting about de matter at all.
Listen: You can't keep your Uncle
Sammy from de bunco men. He's too
good mark; he is too easy, and
when you start out to try to keep him
off de Rialto and away from de sure
ting men who start to make yourself
dippy. 1 tells me son dat he'll never
be captain of his football team If he
tries to dope out who is de people, and
what dey is. De man dat thinks grand
taughts about de people never will get
a look-in at de temple of fame while
dere is places wanted dere for de lad
dat makes a new record for trunning
dc hammer or putting de shot.
Leave politics for de politicians
what do we pay 'em for? Don't go
growing all over de lot when you are
keeping a dog to bark for you.
You never saw a man who has big
ideas about de rights Of dc people
roofing at a baseball game. rowing q
boat for fun, or coasting down hill on
a sled filed wit kiddies.
When I'd told me son dis he wasn't
satisfied yet, and he says dat de teach
er told de class dat de people had a
right to votes In de Senate as well as
de railroads and de express companies.
So I says: Look here, me boy. did
de teacher say who was de people?
Amt de people as much as him? If
/ wanted job In de custom house
wouldn't get 1t? Sure I would. be-
cause Whiskers would tell our Sena-

what he teaches you-only forget it. I
want you to be a great scholar-only
don't let 1t sink in. I'm no great
scholar, SO you will always have some
one handy to put you wise, place you
next, tell you how tings really is. Take
your teachers teachings, for dey will
do you no harm now dat you knows
what dey really means: and de teach
ers must earn living. I suppose. But
when you need to be told de trute
about such tings, come to your dad.
He'll never loin dose dippy tings, and
can always be relied to keep his head
clear and wise"
I was glad dat Kiddie had de game
put up to him early. when it would
hear Of such tings as de teacher was
saying until dey Is too old to get over
1t easy, and den It's ta-ta to ease of
mind and good digestion. What's de
use Of trying to make tings de way
dey isn't, when it's so easy to take 'em

on his fathers side became tired of liv-

Leonidas with a large family and
still larger financial problem on his

That was the kind Of game that Le-

extra dollar a week off his already
microscopic expense account and put
in an additional two hours day at the
regular union charge for overtime.
BY dint of great effort he managed
to keep the family ball rolling until
