Inculcating Thrift Teach Child Value Of Money By Paying Wage For Performing Small Tasks It’s a good plan, says an English writer, to substitute a regular “wage'’ for those pennies and nickels you give the children, Many parents bemoan the fact that their children don’t realize the value of money. How can they, when they can get it for the asking? They never have the chance to learn. {| Instead of making mere gifts of money to your child, suppose you try putting him—or her—on a regular weekly ‘“wage’’ in return for® little tasks performed around the house. Pennies or nickels paid for these lit- tle trifies, instead of being handed out indiscriminately, will instill the spirit of industry and thrift at the formative age. When your boy grows up and faces the world, he will have an apprecia- tion of the value of money. And when your daughter grows up and starts housekeeping she will have an infinitely better idea of how to spend her money economically. And, at the same time, you'll be developing their self-respect.—Van- couyer Sun. Asthma Is Torture.
