Toys and Thrift.

ed. She did not, of •eoixa•ae, realize it
but from her vintage point of being
the eldest grandchild she soon' learned
what her grandmother's ideas were
about toys.
Grandmother was the real heed of
the family. Even in their own homes
h
years afterwards,er children and
ohildren's children felt the weight of
her ()pinions. And grandmeotll-"� "'laai`d
p
a great eonten t four what she termed
"foolish toys."
When a friend presented Alice with
a toy laundry set that consisted of a
tiny tub, a -washboard and'a wringer,
her joy over the gift lasted ii ntil she

ing. "What silly nonsenset"' said
grandma. "A half dealer spent for
nothing! Here,'ehild, if you °wast: to
wash your dolls' clothes, take the old
bathtub ea you always have done.,.
The "bathtub" was a little tin' tub
painted green on the outside, It held
sufficient water really to wash elates-
and met the requirements much bet-
, ter than did the toy tub flat held
scarcely a cupful.
"Never give a child a toy he cannot
; use," was one of 'grandma's ' thrifty
.notions. "Much better put that money
into the bank for him and let the
;' chill find his own toys round the
house." And so Alice's toy'!staidly
equipment was tucked awnay on a shelf,
and 'she weilit, blissfully on washing
her clothes in the green -painted tub,

pinning them on a bit of line tied to
the posts of the sunny kitchen. porch,
Grandmother~ seldom made dolls'
clothes for Alice's limited faxnily of
dolls. As she sat down with her
grandeliald over their sewing of an
afternoon, she cut little patterns and
eliowed Alice, how to put them to-
gether. But, generally speaking, such
;:ambitions as Alice had for her beloved
family's appearance had to be evolved
to bless yourself with; and I might
be anybody's rouseabout for the look
of me. Never a penny leaks out of
your pockets if you can help`"it.
There's none in them to leak out of

laid a hand' on her husband's. coat.
"Don't speak to the boy- like that,"
she cried. "You know he's a'good lad,
that he's worked hard for years."
He pushed her away.
"Be silent!" he said harshly.
"You've held y're tongue, though you
must have known what's been going
on—that he's got into these brawling,

them—said that I'd be blaming him
when I found out, if he didn't tell me
himself, You've screened and hidden

"Leave mother out of it," Davey
said.
"Davey!" she besought him.
"It's all right, mother," he turned
from herr, impatiently. "We've got to
have this out now and be done with it.

I'm glad•you've not crushed Davey

she learned the lesson long ago in
making frocks and quilts and rugs for
her dolls' use.
What is the sense of spending
money for tiny tin cookimg' utensils,
too small to be used, when the house
is full' of old spoons and basins? For
a short time and and mild pies con

been a joy and an open book. rood as

grandmother would remark, and the

it. "Always use what you have before

"Don't spend your money foolishly;
save it for something you really
want," was grandmother's advice
when pennies dribbled away for
candy and gran. So the children learn-
ed to save for the big midsummer
circus or the fall agricultural fair or
for the new book they coveted.
During all the recent agitation over
thrift the thought persisted in Alice's
family: Couldn't we make the thrift
lesson easier and more natural for the
children? Did not grandmother, with
her wholesome contempt for foolish
toys, have the fundamental idea?
