False Ideas About Honest Work

By The Whittier

In the eye of our American schoolboy the clerk who receives fifty dollars per month is a gentleman, while the mechanic who receives one hundred dollars per month is looked upon with a sneer. The miscalled education that begets in our rising generation such false ideas is worse than the ignorance of the unlettered.—The Whittier.
