teaching q boy self-reliance, the
value Of thrift, and craftsmanship.
It will be unnecessary for The
Times to trace that training further
in this appeal for the support Of
the fathers of this city. They as
business men know the value Of
such training to their sons.
Fathers of Washington, explain
to your sons the benefit that they
will receive from membership in
the club and an carriers for The
pride and have absolute confidence
in your judgment Of what is best.
Could any greater stimulus to
ambition and initiative be given
than to offer a boy SIS in savings
certificates in addition to his reg
ular earnings as carrier, for Sc
curing fifty subscribers to The
Times?
Do you not think it is better for
a boy to start his actual business
career with the experience of asso-
citation with older people, other than
his parents. and the invaluable les.
son Of salesmanship, rather than to
have him start totally unequipped
with those qualities?
In another part or this paper you
will find a detailed description of
the methods and aims of the plan.
Go over that plan and see II you
do not agree with The Washington
Times when It says that this plan
IL one Of the most unusual and
beneficial ever offered to the boy.
hood Of Washington.
Salesmanship Helpful.
1t does not make any difference
what business a boy goes into he
must have the quality of saleAman-
ship. How much better 1t is to
teach him that quality while he
Is young and receptive.
AS a further proof of the value Of
this plan we have secured the in.
dorsements OF the neighborhood and
community banks Of Washington.
1t Is these banks that have the most
intimate contact with the people and
are the best acquainted with their
needs and desires.
First Of the bank presidents to en-.
dorse the plan was w. r. Lewis,
president Of the Northeast Savings
Bank, who said: "Too great an
emphasis cannot be put on the value
Of friendship. OF all the factors OF
success this is one Of the most i'm
portant. Business and professional
men, men whose business it is to
meet other people. must learn the
quality Of making friends.
mo one is ever too old or too
young to learn this lesson, but one
Of the best times for teaching the
lesson Ia when the boy loses his
childish self-consciousness and
learns how to meet others. He
reaches this period when he IS
twelve years of age.
"One of the best ways of teaching
the boy how to meet people and
make them become his friends Is
to give him a small business, the
success Of which depends on his own
efforts.
Feature Of Times Plan.
This is one of the features in
the Savings Club of The Washing
ton Times and because of this fea.
ture have given my Endorsement
to it. 1t would be we'll for the par
ents Of this city to support a plan
which gives their children such a
splendid opportunity"
Any wideawake boy between tho
ages of twelve and sixteen years
should be able to fulfill the re-
quirementS of the club and earn
his $15S.92 by the end Of eleven
months.

lieveS that it is rendering you a
