After the janitor's son acquired his new

children of the 'wealthier class as they

Some of these youngsters found 1t more
difficult to learn their daily lessons than
the janitor's son. They proposed that the
latter help them in their studies. He
agreed promptly and set aside several
evenings a week to be spent among his
young friends coaching them in The in
tricaces of the days arithmetic prob
lens. In this way he added something
like FIVE dollars a week some weeks to
the family income.
When the hall boy was graduated from
grammar school he at once proposed to
his father-now truly American-that he
attend college. The father regretfully re-
minded him that he ought to go to work at
some steady job which, now that he was
older, would pay him more substantially
than had been any of his earnings SO far.

The younger son-about whom this
story is to tell-swept the halls. Both
boys went barefooted, of course They
were not accustomed to shoes anyway.
and it never occurred to them to
tax the family's income by demanding
any.
This income was so meager, in fact, even
without the burden of shoes, that the
younger son. Robert, decided to do some
thing extra. He had rapidly picked up
bit of English-mostly in arguments with
the sons of the janitor next door, whom he
thrashed every time they said word he
couldn't understand-often to his later
regret when upon examination of that
word he found 1t didn't mean anything as
provoking as he thought it might. The
oftener he thrashed his neighbors the
oftener he learned new words. His vocab-
ulary grew rapidly.
Thus equipped with the ability to be un-
derstood when he spoke to strangers in
their own language, he began selling news
papers. He took his stand at the corner
nearest his cellar home, SO he would not
be far away If his father needed help un-
expectedly. His working hours were those
after school. Before school in the morn
ing he did his sweeping.
When 1t became imperative for the boy
to have new suit of clothes having COM

come too small for his older brother. he
took on newspaper delivery route to at
