The Folly of
"A Year's Earning"
Instead of
"A Year's Learning"
Said a father: "John's had a
pretty good education. He's seven
teen now I can get him in my
friend Smith's office where he can
learn business right at the fountain
head, and earn six or seven dollars
a week.
Very well. Mr.
Suppose we carry this foresight a little
further.
John earns $300 the first year and
spends a year or lire.
The second year he has become a fair general clerk, being bright and anxious to
learn. He receives $8 a week now. Two years gone.
The third year he is promoted into another department and "picks up" a lot of
detail. He can do "most anything." But there's Bob, the new man just John's
age and just from PEIRCE'S.
Bob doesn't know so much about Smith's business but he know3 Butintst
the scientific kind, that begins with a capital and, not to pun, employs capital,
needs capital, conserves capital and ends with bigger capital than ever !
So Bob gets real things to do he knows banking and accountancy and the
intricacies of finance and commerce. He hasn't the $700 that John earned, but he
has the wherewithal to get that and much more Knowledge 1
And so he draws $12'when John gets $10 and $16 when John gets $12 and
all the time a bigger and better job.
Figure it out yourself!
Oh, yes ! Time was when the errand boy "worked himself up" to be President,
a la Horatio Alger, But that was when they used gaslights, and horsecars, and
pushbarrows, and added long columns with the pen, and used copying presses
when they didn't dream of motor trucks, and adding machines, and filing systems
and till that.
Come now
Hadn't John better invut those two years In preparation Instead odpindintime
in futile earning ?
