Yet it would have taken only a little money per week as we went along to have provided handsomely for them and, at the same time, I would have taught them some of the fundamentals of careful, thrifty living. As it is, we all went along care- lessly and extravagantly, and now we are paying the penalty. It is really criminal for parents in any walk of life to fail to teach their children the happiness that results THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 1}, 1921. u 3 eg {Pais 6 wowed and market cod| White, merchant and philanthropist, ROBINS COMPANY INDICTED.

House cleaning in both the em- Ployer’s and the labor organizations and the drop in material prices to- ward uonmal are taken to indicate the revival of bullding activities in the spring. This will provide plenty of work when industrial depression bas thrown out thousands all over the country and also will provide some housing accommodations. Since the Lockwood investigation opened last October common brick declined from ]$30-$32 per thousand to $165-$18; yellow pine from $77 to 387; cement $5.10 per barrel to $4.50; lath from $16 to $12 per thonsand; plaster, per ton, $29 to $26; sand, gravel, hollow tile and a few other items remain to be forced down to a point of stabilization.

Don’t, please, look upon this as preaching, because it is not so in- tended. All 1 want to do is to drive home to others the lesson that I missed learning until pretty late in| life. I want to point out to as man) people as possible the fact that one who is always short of money, who is always living up to his earnings, and ofttimes way beyond them, never gets out of life what he should get and what he could easily have if he just made up his mind to budget his regeipts and expenses —never allowing his expenses to exceed his receipts. $1.52 a week put aside for 18 years amounts to $2,500, I wonder if parents realize if they put aside as little as $1.52 a week for each child from the date of birth until he or she reaches the age of 15 that they would be able to give him or her $2,500 in cas? $1.50 a week invested at 6 per cent. and allowed to accumulate | (interest compounded over 36 six- months periods) will amount to $2,500 in 18 years—enough to pay a boy’s or girl's way through college —even in these days of high costs.
