BABsoN's ADVICE

TN A letter to "the sons and
daughters of my clients" Roger
Babson, the well known business
authority, writes:
''The fun of life is in growing,
rather than possessing. Every sue
cessful man will tell you this. We
really enjoy only the things which
we ourselves make or earn.
when you get married be con-
tent to start in humble way, as
your parents did. Don't try to start
where your parents now are. Hon
esty is not only the best policy
but it is the foundation of civili-
cation.
s'The time to save money is wher
you are making it. Keep out Of
debt. Be generous in giving; but
avoid accommodation loans, and
never endorse.
"Boost the other fellow and he
will boost you, as we are usually
repaid with our own coin-and
Judge not.
"Don't try to buck either the
Ten Commandments or the Multi
plication Table"
