Tea. BOY'S E i 8 A X. A prize book is offered at oar school Jot the best essay on " Old Age Pensions." When I told Pa. he said he would {in his ■views to help me, and half-a-crown if - took the first prize. (He is a Liberal, bat Keeps me short of pocket money). Ma said sfcetaai it scheme, and was rare it was better than what the politicians were fighting ot«t. So I started on my essay with the help o! a Hansard. Old Ago Pensions is intended to give old people a shilling a day. Instead of them Tote* to tho Charitable Aid Board for rations an"! 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 perhap* not getting it then, and then they won't be looked on as paupers. My dictionary says a pauper is ons who cannot help himself, and is a burden on the State. When I got this far Pa said the dictionary was old, anil out of date, and he would with draw the half-crown offer. Ma said alia would help me, and then I started again. If a boy or a man don't want to ba a burden ho ought to save up his coppers, and when he grows to 65 years of age he won t want 110 pension, or rations either, and any one can save up fourpence a week by -caving off cigarettes or stickjaw. And lucre is another and easier way of saving, my Alii saysin knowing how to buy. She buys Q UEATURA rpEA. and saves sixpence per week, and showed pio 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, lam going to adopt my mother's suggestion, or mating my wife buy gUEATURA IJEA, and bo independent of pension. geobge SMITH, 4th i'ora, gURATUBA IS NOT BLENDED WITH INDIAN, OEE*A« OE OTHER INFERIOR TEAS.
