From observation in your own community, give illustrations to show how people, in attempting to satisfy their own wants, may interfere with the efforts of others to satisfy theirs. The following are given as suggestions: An employer and those whom he employs. A man who owns a house or farm and the tenant to whom he rents it. A man who keeps a livery stable adjoining a schoolhouse. A grocer who displays his goods on the sidewalk (especially food products). Men who raise cattle and those who raise sheep on the western ranges. A boy who raises chickens and one who has a garden adjoining. Suppose a schoolmate comes to school with measles or some other contagious disease. How may this affect your schoolwork? your association with your friends? How may it even add to your father's expenses? Show that your schoolmates are as dependent upon you as you are upon them. Is the community in which you live dependent upon you in any way? Give illustrations. |
