A New York judge gave lws son
$1,000, telling him to go to college
graduate. The son returned at the end
of freshman year without a dollar and
with several ugly habits. At the
of the vacation the judge told his
that he had done all he could for him.
If he had wasted the money that
to have taken him through college,
might as well leave home and make
own way in the world. It was a
awakening for the young man, but
knew that his father was right. And

upright father that he did leave
to go to work in downright
He went back to college, made his
through, graduated at the head of
class, studied law, became governor
the state of New York, entered the
Inet of the president of the
States and made a record for
that tbe country will not wittingly
die. It was William H. Seward.
