Once there was a man who had son
and the father did not make the son
work when he was small, but did all
the work himself. When the son got
about ten, the father put the son to
work and the son thought this awful
hard and thought it all unjust and that
father ought not to make him work but
ought to continue to do all the work
alone So the son one day talked to
his little sister. He poured out his
wrath on his father and told his little
sister that pa ought to be in the peni-
Tertiary for making him work all the
time. Reader, did you ever think as
this boy did, whose father, was so good
to him and sat up with him when he
was sick, and when he would cry faith
er and mother would get up with him
in the cold or in the heat, lose their
sleep and feel bad in the morning, all
for their little boy, who thought faith
er ought to be in the pen, who loved
him and did so much for him, when
fathers head was getting gray and he
needed help to make the bread that he
and his son ate. Don't you think that
son was very unthoughtful? Don t
you think if that son had been wise
and thoughtful he would have said to
his little sister, Father and mother
