sometime ago and was surprised to
hear the mother say in the presence
of her children, that she never
wanted her boys and girls to work
as hard as she had done. The father
who was present nodded his head in
approval of what the mother had
said. They both further said that
they intended to educate their chill
dren to such a degree that they
could eschew everything like farm
work and be able to enter the ranks
of the so-called shining lights among
their fellow beings. This kind OF
talk the inmates of the home are
compelled to hear constantly, until
the thought of remaining on the farm
grows so distasteful to them that
they seek the first opportunity to get
away from a life which has been
painted in such disagreeable colors.
The father and mother continues to
work constantly to enable them to
carry into effect their plans con-
cerning their children and to shield
them as far as possible from honest
labor. The children are allowed to
grow up in idleness and instead of
being a help in and around the
home are taught that manual labor
is in a measure degrading and for
girl to enter the kitchen to help her
tired mother is not to be thought of.
The boys spend their time out of
school in playing base ball and the
girls in reading the trashy hter9-
ture of the day. In this condition
the children are sent out into the
world to compete for a livelihood. Is
it any wonder that so many go
wrong. That instead of being !
blessing to their parents they bring !
to them, grief and sorrow in their |
declining years. Stay on the farm |
young ladies and young men, don't |
leave the old homestead. The city
life is an unknown quantity, and
holds with it's grasp many hardships.
The pathway may glitter with things
of great beauty, which to the young
mind seems to be of much value, but
when dissected are found to contain
that which not only hounds the re-
ceiver but which proves TO be the
things which leads our boys and
girls astray. Remain at the old
home on the farm, for some day you
will realize its worth and it will be-
come the dearest spot on earth to
you.
