NEW YORK, July 8.
IF ANY boy in the United
= States today wonders if
he is on the road to fame
and fortune, like John ID.
Rockeferrel, he should find
out these things:
Does he milk cows, chop
wood and NOW lawns?
Is he a good boy?
Does he go to church reg
ularly and enjoy it?
Does he like his school?
Does he work early and
late on a job without COM
planning?
And above all, does he
save his pennies?
These are in the record
of John D. Rockefeller's
early life.
On his first job the future
multimillionaire was paid $50
for four months work as
bookkeeper, clerk and errand
boy.
One of the early habits he
developed which helped lay
the foundation of his sue
cess was keeping a burget
even when getting so little
money.

Mrs. Duffy came to America
when she was a little girl. The
passage took three months. Her
