A prize book ia offered at our schools for the best essay on " Old Ago Pensions" When I told Pa, lie 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 1 a. scheme, and was euro it was better than Li what the politicians were fighting over. So j I started on my essay with the help of a 7 Hansard. 0 Old Age Pensions are intended to give 01.l '• people a shilling a. day, instead of them going '• t-> the Charitable Aid Board for rations and 1 boots and rents, and being asked questions. '■ They call it a pension because the old men ■• and women will demand it as a right, instead 11 of asking it as a favour, and perhaps not 3 getting it then, and then they won't he looked ? on as paupers. 1 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is one who cannot help himself and is a burden on the State, When I got this far Pa said the dictionary was old, and out of date, and he would withI draw tho half-crown offer. Ma said she would ' help me. and then I started again. If a boy or a. man don't want to be a burden ho ought to save up Mb coppers, and when he grows to 65 years of age he won't P want no pension, or rations either, and anyl" one can save up fourpence a week by leaving ' oft cigarettes or stickjaw. And there is another and easier way in saving, my Ma saye-in knowing how to buy. She buys" 3, GURATURA rpEA, and saves sixpence per week, and ehowed 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, I am going to adopt my mother's suggestion, by making my wife buy OTJRATURA rpEA, I, 1. and be independent of pension. I. ■ GEORGE SMITH. • Fourth Form.
