Growth Deter1ninants

Within twenty-four hours l heard
two men express themselves so en-
tirely opposite each other I could
not help thinking that, in a measure,
they were samples of what is going
on all about us. One said, 81 sup
| pose this is goodbye, 1 am going to
Memphis next week and take a job
there"
L expressed surprise that he should
give up a good place when times seem
so hard and so many people are
hunting work. He then said that in
the ten years that he had been work.
| ing for himself there had not been a
time that he had been out of work.
He said that he had changed work
| several times, but he had never
turned loose one job until he had an
other, and that he had never had to
call on his father for help. The one
he has does not promise the future
that the one in Memphis does. He is
eye-servant of himself, and has self
respect enough to want work to be
classed among the best.
The other man said man came
| to him and said that his money had
given out and he could not get any
more credit until he got work.
Its up 20 you fellows with bust
to hear of hungry children" The
man with business did not appre-
ciate the way that he was approach
ed, but he made work for the fell
low. The first week he did very
well, then he began to take from II
to for his noon time, and finally
came so late and left so early that
his day was about five hours. The
employer put up with it for a month
and then told him that he would have
to let him go as business did not
justify extra help. What do you
suppose he did with some of that
money, the last he had any ~Iea of
getting right away? Got himself a
shave and a shoe-shine. And that is
why so many families are destitute,
| there is not the faintest idea OF
| thrift, the one that handles the
money let's it slip out of his, or her
fingers for trifles.
| MisfOrtuneS come to most of u.s.
we have all sorts of things happen
to our plans, but when we are
spending money, time, or energy it
is common send to get the best we
can and also to give the best we
are able.
Some times it is the sad fact that
a family does not get all the money
| that the head of that family makes,
there is the idea in some heads that
a man has a right to his money and
that he has a lot of pensioners on
his bounty. There never was more
erroneous idea. When a man. mar
ries he enters into a partnership for
| life, and it is q pity in the twain
made one flesh" do not work har-
moniously, do not both get the idea
that they are mutually responsible
for the out-go and the income.
L have seen men who ate lunch at
expensive places when the children
had the scantiest of lunches at
school. Papa must have it, he is
working"

money but went to less expensive
places, and had a good meal for all
of the family in the evening. We al
