QUEEN-STREET. AUCKLAND. Tea. A BOY'S ESSAY. A prize book is offered at our school for the best essay on " Old Age Pensions." When I told Pa, he said he would give his views to help me, and half-a-crown if I took the first prize. (He is a. Liberal, but keeps me short of pocket money). Ma said she had a scheme, and was sure it was better than what the politicians were fighting over. So I started on my essay with the help of a Hansard. Old Age Pensions is intended to give old people a shilling a day, instead of them going to tho Charitable Aid Board for rations and boots and rent, and beingasked questions They call it a pension because the old men and women will demand it as a right, instead of asking it as a favour, and perhaps not getting it then, and then they won't bo lookei on as paupers. My dictionary says a pauper is one who cannot help himself, and is a burden on the State. When I got this far Pa said the dictionary was old, and out of date, and he would with draw the half-crown offer. M.i said she would help me, and then I started again. If a boy or a man don't want to be a burden he ought to save up his coppers, and when he grows to 65 years of age he won't want no pension, or rations either, and anjone can save up fourpence a week by leaving off cigarettes or stickjaw. And there is another and easier way of saving, my Ma says—in knowing how to buy. She buys QURATURA mEA, and saves sixpence per week, and showed me a calculation that SIXPENCE a week, if started at 25 years old, and well invested, would provide a pension at 65. When I grow up, J. am going to adopt my mother's suggestion, by making my wife buy , ODEATUEA rpEA, and be independent of pension. GEORGE SMITH, 4th Form.
