Are Rich Men's Sons Really to be
Pitied?
A friend ' of The Tar Heel
sends us the clipping- below which
we take great pleasure in publish
ing. We have always felt sorry
for rich meu's sons, ; and join with
! Mr. Carnegie in the deepest com
miseration for those born with a
superabundance of filthy lucre.
The clipping follows:
"Oh, how I pity the boy who is
born the son of a millionare!" cried
Mr. Carnegie at a recent dinner.
And the exclamation has started an
interesting debate on the relative
advantages of wealth and poverty
in youth. -v-
It depends largely on the boy, of
course.
Riches are not g-ood for the lad
who is not endowed with energy of
character. Such a one takes the
line of least resistance, lives in idle
ness and will be fortunate if he does
not go to the bad. Had he been
born poor the necessity of support
ing himself might have developed
in him industry, self-reliance and a
desire to amount to something.
, On the other hand, a boy of unus
ual ability is not to be pitied by Mr,
Carnegie or anybody else because
he has parents who can give him
education, remove obstacles from
his path and let him have all his
time for the cultivation of his pow
ers and the pursuit of his career.
No doubt many men who have
won success, ; owe it to the goad of
early poverty, to the struggles
which sharpened their wits,
strengthened " their wills and ena
bled them to measure themselves
accurately, through competition
with rivals.
Between Mr. Carnegie's commis
erated "son of a millionaire" and
the son of bitter poverty, however;
there are a good many degrees.
A home of want may be a good
school for genius, or very great tal
ent, but the world is full of men
who would have reached a much
more comfortable plain had they
had better opportunities in boyhood.
The exceptional lad whose parents
are very poor will find ways for
mental improvement, but the av
erage boy in such circumstances,
like the commonplace son of the
millionaire, will accept things as he
finds them. He will do his daily
drudgery for bread and remain in
the station wherein it has pleased
Providence to place him. That is,
he will "assimilate to his environ
ment." Each state has its disadvantages,
but the judgment of most men of
common sense is against, poverty as
a desirable inheritance.
Bring the question home to your
self: Would you, if you were rich,
like your bo' to be deprived of the
chances you money is able to offer
him? And if you are poor, would
you not like to be well-to-do so that
you might give your son a better
start in life than, because of your
poverty, he can have?
,Boys with the right kind of stuff
in them, whether fich or poor, will
manage to make men of themselves.
