BOY'S ESSAY. A prize book is offered at our school for lie best essay on " Old Age Pensions." When I told Pa, lie said lie would giv» his iews to help me. and half-a-crown if i took he first prize. (He is a Liberal, but keeps ,ie short of pocket money). Ma said «iieliai , scheme, and was sura it was better than .hat the politicians were fighting over, So started on my essay with tile help of a tansard. Old Age Pensions is intended to give old leople a shilling a day, instead of thorn going 0 the Charitable Aid Board for rations and icots and rent, and beingasked questions 'hey call it a pension because the old men nd women will demand it as a right, instead if asking it as a favour, anil perhaps not letting it then, and then they won't bo looked in as paupers. My dictionary says a pauper is one who annot help himself, and is a burden on the itate. When I got this far Pa said the dictionary fas old. and out of date, and ho would with Iraw the half-crown offer. Ma said shf vould help me, and then I started again. If a boy or a man don't want to be a mrden he ought to save up his coppers, and vheu lie grows to 65 years of ago lie won't vant no pension, or rations either, and anj>ne can save up fourpence a week by leaving iff cigarettes or stickjaw. And there is mother and easier way of saving, my Ma ays-ill knowing how to buy. She buys gURATURA rjtEA, ind saves sixpence per week, and showed mo 1 calculation that SIXPENCE a week, if started it 25 years old, and wed invested, would proride a pension at 65. When I grow up. lam ;oing to adopt my mother's suggestion, by making my wife buy gURATUEA ipEA, ind be independent of oension.
