(M course, it's “ up to you ” to give him a start; hut you can do that; it isn’t a matter of money. Give him a start by being a kind of father or mother 'that a hoy has a right to have—that will make him a man when all other influences fail. Give him a start by giving him a charaeter, a purpose, a line faith, a high ideal. Give him a start by building into bis consciousness the fact that a man can’t do wrong and feel right about i‘< —or do right and fee! wrong about it —'for long.
