tre of its own stage; if he has pro
tected its play, not ordered it—for
who can play to order?—and if he
has seen that its work falls in lines
to which the child’s temperament is
native, then at the crucial period
the youth will conduct himself as a
self-directed individual, and not as
a runaway slave.
"As a manner of fact, the child
whose play with fire has been un
obtrusively supervised, not arbitrar
ily prohibited, is the least likely to
be fatally burnt. The boy whose
finger is allowed to|be harmlessly cut
knows better than to play with
knives. The parent is in a position
to point out the law and its violation

—not an instrument of irrelevant
punishment.
“Blessed is that parent of whom
the adult child remembers no power
of the lash, no ban of empire! Such
a one may gaze down the vista of
his child’s past with only grateful
recollections of his own too brief
sojourn with the zest and surprise
of the beginning. Why do parents
neglect, when they sum up their
later disappointments, to remember
how keenly they enjoy those early
years?

be times when you do tins, but
they will be few and far between,

The other rule is: Learn to distin
guish between spending money and
investing it, and be sure to invest
some. When you pay out you money
for things to eat or wear or amuse
yourself with, you are spending it,
because these things bring back no
financial return. When you buy
something which you expect to sell
for more money or to help you earn
more money, you are investing. It
