'of •a sixteen -year-old. Each day
is precious and perfect. • .
The evenings are smoky -and • •a

An old Fable tells the story
of -several boys idly throwing.
stones at a group of frogs in a.
'pond.. "Boys," complained` one ;
of the frogs at, last, "this
. May be fun for you but
• it :is death for us."
Too often we do thoughtless 'things without consideration
for others -for example, spending our money solely .for pleasure
without regard for our family's future. Howmuch better it would
be to provide for that future through the medium
