When he passed his •entrance at •the age of 14 .Mr. Jackscu had had enough of school, and he went to his father and advised him to that ef- fect, although not in such a few 'words. "Very well," said the elder Jackson, "if you won't go to school you. will go Atil work, then." , That suited Mr. +Jackson' fine. He had already beendown to Mitchell and had arranged to start as an ap- prentice in a machine shop there. But 'his father promptly put his foot down on that idea.

There were lots of nasty, dirty jobs to be done in the pullery and he saw to it that I had most of them to de, but there was nothing too bad to do that would make me go back to school.
