PRODUCERS OR PARASITES?

Are you rearing your boys to be
producers or parasites? This is a
question that is or ought to be of
most vital interest to fathers and
mothers. Some parents give money
to their children to spend as they
wish. and when those same children
are grown, will it be surprising if
those same children are poor mana
gers, knowing nothing of good buy
ing, or the fundamental principles of
making dollar do full duty.
1t seems best encourage children
to earn. When they earn money i,
takes less advice and reasoning to
teach them how to spend it advant-
| ageously. Once the idea is establ-
ished in their young minds that to
| eat we must work, and each must
do his or her part no matter how
small, then they soon endeavor to be-
come producers, even in their small
way. We've deal of respect fo,
the small boys who bring papers tc
us to sell. They surely never will
be parasites.
Teach the little people to work to
earn. Begin early, given them com.
'ensation for humble tasks, teach
hem to buy wisely and we'll. The

With little things in a humble wav:

A BILL THAT Is NEVER PAID

A ten year old lad overheard .
conversation about certain bills t.

making out bill for his own serv
ices. So the next morning he laie
this statement of account on hi.
mothers breakfast plate:
Mother owes Willie for carrying
coal six times, 20 cents; for bringing
water lots of times, 80 cents; fol
going ten errands, Is cents"
His mother read the bill but sale
nothing about it. That evening Willie
found on his plate the rs cents, an(
also another bill which read a:
follows: willie owes mother for hi:
happy home for ten years, nothing
for nursing him thrugh long illness
nothing; total, nothing"
When Willie saw the seventy-five
cents he was pleased, but when he
read his mothers bill his eyes grew
dim and his lips quivered. Then
he took the money to his mother
threw his arms about her neck anG
begged that she would let him dc
lots of things for her.
Mothers bill is rarely presented
but it will pay each person to think
