MAYORS SONS WORK AS PAYERS.

Value Money Earned by Toll.
A Kalamazoo,

A kalamazoo, Mich, dispatch to
the New York World says:
Stone hammer in hand, Mayor Will
liam Thompson's sons, Boone and
William S. Thompson, are working
on the streets as PAYERS. Their rich
father believes that the money they
can earn by the sweat of their brow
makes them richer than il the y sat
in a private Office and cut coupons.
Boone Thompson is a college grad
uate, and is becoming a very good
stone paver. His brother William has
just returned from course at a mil
itary academy, and Boone is teaching
aim all he has learned about paving
blocks. Both young men wear over
alls ana carry the dinnsr pail. Their
father could give the the backing
Of millions if they starred in busi-
ness. He is managing director of the
famous kalamazoo stove works, but
he believes in manual training, hard
knocks, end disappointmelts as the
very best school for s young man
starting in the world.
"The fact that my sons are work
ing with their hands, Tearing what
manual labor is, should not be con-
sidered hobby on my part" says
the mayor. Every young man should
be taught the value OF money-that
is, to know by the hard RUE Of expe-
rience what is necessary to be done
in order to produce something for
consideration. The ability to earn
something usually carries with it
practical realization 1hat the
sweat Of the brow is.,a teacher who
inparts real good, common sense to
young men. They are apt to feel the
necessity for saving something Rhey
have to sweat for.
eI hope the experience Of my boys
Will be the means Of making men
out Of them, and that they will al
ways be ready and willing 10 do what
ever they are called upon to do, SO
that the calling is just an honorable.
The brain will take care Of itself if the
physical agency OF the young man is
brought into play as it sho'l,e be.
81 am convinced that the field fof
good, hard-working, honest, brainy,
strong young men is growing larger;
that the demand is greater, and that
opportunities are so plentiful that If
young man does not take advantage
of these opportunities it is his fault or
the fault of the parent or person who
is guiding him.
