It's YOUR Money BY DONALD DALEY PRESIDENT FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF McHENRY TEACHING BABIES ABOUT BUSINESS Educators have long said that our children are our greatest natural re­ source for the future. So­ ciologists have said that if we are ever to solve the problems of oil crises, meat shortages, and in­ flation, we need a citizen­ ship educated in econom­ ics. A new program, working on both premises, is teaching basic concepts of economics at the kin­ dergarten level. Beg>in in California and soon to expand eastward, Kinder - Economy gives kindergarteners 30 min­ utes a day for a semester, learning about economics in classroom situations.-" For instance, when there aren't enough cray­ ons or felt-tip pens, the teacher can talk about scarcity. To learn about opportunity, children were offered a wide variety of activities for a play period -- painting, playing, mon­ key bars, handball, etc. Each had to choose two ac­ tivities. Later they discus­ sed their choices, what they felt they had missed, and whether they'd made the right choice. Later in the "course" the children had a chance to go into business. "One little girl went into the fortune - telling business, but because her fortunes didn't come true she went out of business in a week," recalls Dr. Marilyn Kour- ilsky, associate professor o( economic education at the University of California at Los Angeles and founder of the program. "She and her class were given a won­ derful opportunity to dis­ cuss what goes into a suc­ cessful business venture." The very young children did have difficulty under­ standing the value of time. "It takes them quite a while to realize that something doesn't have to be tangible to be worth something," says Dr. Kourilsky. Two years old, the pro­ gram has been well receiv­ ed, and a fringe benefit has surfaced. The parents , of the young economists are being spurred to learn more about the subject themselves. After all, no one wants to be shown i^> by a five-year-old.

X d fatter St. Francis • w " * > \ " Francis of Asiisi, who lived more than 700 years ago, left a simple prayer that sounds as if it were written for the Twentieth Century. Although his father was a wealthy merchant, Francis renounced his fortune and gave himself in service to the poor. Bom in the tiny village of Assisi, Italy, he loved wildlife and the out-of-doors. He called animals "his broth­ ers and sisters," and wrote of "brother sun" and "sister moon" in his Canticle of the Sun. And now for his prayer, which has blessed so many readers down through the centuries; Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury, pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, tight; and Where there is sadness, joy. Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek to be Consoled as to console; ToJ>e understood as to understand; To be loved as to love; For it is in giving that we receive; It is in pardoning that we are pardoned; And it is in dying that we are bom to eternal life. St. Francis didn't dress for success. He usually wore a single brown tunic of coarse woolen cloth. But he prayed for success, in thlit he asked God to use him to bless others. And is there any other kind of lasting success? R. J.
