Heinie build* houses for. other people but even if he didn't do it for a living Heinie would enjoy doing things to make others happy. He knows what a thrill it is to see a house gcow where there were just a' few shrubs before.

We don't have to be born with a silver spoon in our mouths. We can do a pretty good job of silver-plating the little tin spoon we were born with, without ancestral help.
