A prize book is offered at our schools for i the best essay on "Old Age Pensions" When I told Pα, he eaid ho wonld give his views to help me. and half-a-crown if I took tho first prize. (He is a Liberal, but keeps me short of pocket money.) Ma said she had ii scheme, and was sure it was better than what the politicians were fighting over. Bo I started on my essay with the help of a Hansard. Old Age Pensions are intended to eive «l.i people n shilling n. day, instead of them going j ti the Charitable Aid Board for rations and ; hoots and rents, and being asked questions. I They call it a pension because the old men i and women will demand it as a right, instead ! of asking it as a favour, and perhaps not i ire.tin? it then, and then they won't be looked ! on as paupers. j My dictionary says a jiatiper is one who j cinnnt help himself and is a burden on the i State. ] When I got fills far Pa said the dictionary wns old, and out of date, and he would with-; draw the half-crown offer. Ma said she would j help me, and then I started again. If a boy or a man don't want to Tie a burden he ought to save up his coppers, and when ho grows to 65 years of ago he won't j want no pension, or rations either, and any-i one can save up fourponce a week by leaving I off cigarettes of stickjaw. And there is , another and easier way in saving, my Ma' says— knowing how to buy. She buys. CJUEATURA mEA. and saves sixpence per week, and showed me | a calculation that sixpence a week, If started I at 25 years old. and well invested, would pro-' vide a pension at 65. When I grow up, I am going to adopt my mother's suggestion, by making my wife buy QURATURA rnEA, and be independent of pension. George SMITH, Fourth Form. SURATrjRA 19 NOT BLENDED WITH INDIAN.
