I UNDERSTAND YOU NOW. DAD
Wo suspect that some who read the “letter which fol
lows will sneer at it as “just a lot of silly, sentimental rot.
We happen to know, however, that this composition by an
unknown writer was beautifully printed and circulated
among thousands of “hard-headed business men b\ a great
manufacturing concern (tthe Kalamazoo Vegetable Parch
ment Company), and that it received enthusiastic commend
ation from them So we make no further apologies lor re
printing it.
Dear Dad :
I am writing this to you, though you have been dead
thirty years.
From your seat in the Place Beyond 1 hope you can see
these lines. I feel 1 must say some things to you. things 1
didn't know when I was a boy in your house, and things I
was too stupid to say.
It’s only now, after passing through the long, hard
school of years—only now when my own hair is gray—that
I understand how you felt.
I must have been a bitter trial to you. I was such an
ass. I believed my own petty wisdom, and I know now how
ridiculous it was, compared to that calm, ripe wholesome
wisdom of vours.
Most of all. I want to confess my worst sin against you.
It was the feeling I had that you "did not understand."
When I look back over it now, I know that you did un
derstand. Your wisdom flowed around mine like the ocean
around an island.
And how patient you were with me! How full oot
long suffering and kindness !
And how pathetic, it now comes home to me, were your
efforts to get close to me, to win my confidence, to be my pal!
I wouldn’t let you. I couldn’’t. What was it held me
aloof? I don’t know. But it was tragic—that wall that
rises between a boy and his father, and thier frantic at
tempts to see through it and climb over it.
I wish you were here now, across the table hem me.
just tor an hour, so that 1 could tell you how there's no wall
any more; I understand you now. Dad. and. God! how I love
you and wish I could go back to be your boy again.
I know now how I could make you happy every da\. I
know hoow you felt.

BASES AT NOME AND CANDLE
DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Edson R. W aite, Shawnee, Oklahoma
I note an advertisement in a New York state newspaper
by its home town bank. It tells of a new way of saving and
paying your next years’ taxes. It is something like the old
Christmas Savings Clubs.
The Bank says it has arranged a plan called a Tax Club
which provides for equal weekly installment payments to
the Bank. You estimate what year year’s taxes will be
and, when taxes are due, the Bank will pay them and send
you a receipt. That is, of course, if you have enough in the
Bank to pay them.
The plan is fine, but how to get the money to pay the
installments, is the hard question for most people, and then
again how can we estimate what our taxes will be a year
from now? The only thing we can be sure of is that they
will be higher, but how high is what is worrying most of
Americans today !
