The Great Financier, Russell Sago,
Gives the following good advice to bjys, whioa the pareats might also read
with profit:
"Boys, go to school as o: ai you cut, aal romnnbir. evory hour spont in
study in your youth will he worth mousy to you in aftsr lift, Riad good book9.
make yourselves acquainted with history, study th) p.-ogresi of nations and the
careers of men who have undo nations great
"Study religion, acleno, statecraft and history. Liarn to read intelli -gently,
so that you can turn to practical 1119 in after life tin readings of your
youth. Be sure you begin right. Do not waste time in reading trashy books."
Mr. Sage says further: "The boy who is wtntod in tho bud nisi world of
today must be educated. If his parents cannot affrl to givo himaollege or
high school education, he must learn to stuly without tin aid of a tenoher in
the early ra .ruin before business bsgins, and in the evenings after business
hours. It can no longer be truthfully sdtol that an olu Jttloa is on; of anyone's
reach."
Tbis is the advice of a mm who is one of the mist cottspicuiut business
successes of our time, and who has amassed one of the largest fortunes in
America. It cannot possibly be charged that he is in the pay of the Encyclo
pedia Britannica, and yet these words, given as the conviction of a life of un
usual observation and oxparionce, advis as stronriy as words oan, tbat you
