Children Should
Be Taught How
To Spend

People are just beginning to learn
that thrift is not SO much a matter
of saving money as Of learning how
to spend it. We cannot teach
child thrift merely by getting him
to hoard his pennies in a toy bank.
Possibly we might make a miser OF
him by that process. but to make
him thrifty in the best sense of the
word, we must get him to exercise
good sense and responsibility in
spending money, instead of smoth-
ering his growing soul with the
doctrine that the mere saving of
money is a supreme virtue.
The only way for anybody to
learn how to spend money, writes
Carl Marshall in The Thrift"
magazine, is to have some practice
in spending it.
1t is not thing that we can learn
from listening TO lectures and wise
maxims.
1t is a case of Learning by do
ing" and that is an educational
principle that has been accepted
since the days of Pestalozzi. Also,
like everything else that is effec-
tive in education, it must begin in
childhood.
The young person who reaches
the age of 10 without having had
any experience or training in the
wise handling of money, is most
unlikely to become a thrifty man or
woman.
To the children in most families,
money is merely something that
will help them to various pleasures,
such as movies, candy, ice-cream
cones or other kinds of treats.
Money is to be had, mainly, by teas
ing for it, and the little schemers
become very ingenious in worming
it out of father or mother and in
striking" them for it when condi-
tons are propitious.
The practice of doing out money
to the children by dribbles, when
they tease for it, and without hold
ing them to any responsibility in
the matter of spending it, is I'M
doubtedly responsible for most of
the prevalent unthrift among our
young people. 1t is quite natural
that this childish attitude toward
money should continue even into the
period when the young person be-
comes money Garner on his own
account, and oftentimes, into his
adult like as well.
The remedy for this resultant of
thriftiness is very simple, and may
be applied by any parent who is
thoughtful enough and loves his
child we'll enough to apply it.
Instead of giving the little folks
money in haphazard fashion and
when they tease for it, let them have
stated sum each week. and then
insist upon their keeping an account
of what is done with every penny
of it.

The American girl progresses
every day! Not many years ago it
was not "genteel" for her to indulge
in athletics in any form. The only
gymnastics permitted the average
woman were washing and ironing
clothes, scrubbing and making
bread. How different it is today
The modern college woman is a
good horseback rider, and expert
swimmer and an unusual tennis
player.
Tennis was not known at all to
any extent in America before 1880,
but women took it up almost i'm
mediately, and the fashion period

with high collars, long sleeves and

In 1900 tennis costumes were al
most as bad, though not quite: mi
lady had to play in high collars and
sleeves, but she had the slight ad-
vantage of fuller skirt. But what
good was that, when she had a
pinched up, wasp-like waist?
Now the modern girl enjoys a
set in loose blouse, or MILDLY,
with short sleeves and no corsets.
All she has to retard her is the tight
skirt
How ridiculous the tight skirt is!
