prevailed at other points, rather than
to have other points reduced to the
Fargo-Grand Forks ahpeton level,
as would be done by the boards order.

Gutenberg arrived from the battle
fields with couple Of old uniforms
he had taken as souvenirs. And that
was about all he possessed in the
world. But how was he to turn q
couple Of uniforms into q meal ticket? :?
Really it was simpler than It sounds.
The war was 50 close to the inhab-
itants Of America that it became the
vogue to wear uniforms to fancy dress
parties. So young Gutenberg began
to rent out his costumes.
But he soon found that the stage
wanted them for dramas based on the
Civil War. So he struck up q trade
with Tony Pastor, the picturesque
theatrical figure OF another day. Soon
he found himself Quitting the Pas
tor actors. Soon he was attracting
attention among the leading theat-
rical figures.
The late Nat Goodwin took to going

As a means OF laying aside money
for the child the plan is excellent, but
as lesson in thrift and money values
it is worthless. To the child his bank
account is a nebulous. Incompetent
sible affair His actual feelings toward
it are likely to be colored by more
than unge of resentment.
Uncle Charles gold piece that
would have bought the best scooter

never to be seen again-swallowed
down the NAV of that ever hungry
bank account. which never did any
body the least bit of good.
The child can learn the value Of
money only from experience with it.
From an educational point Of view
the best sort of bank for the young
child is good luck pig that iingles
with pennies and nickles and maybe
a dime or two. This money is real
because he himself may dispose Of it.
When the bank Is full, it represents
the attainment Of bright possessions
and endless delights, and when some
orgy OF spending has emptied it he
has learned truly and painfully that
money spent is gone, that even q
whole pig full Of money will buy Just
so much and no more.
