Ran into Herb Collins the other day down by the school. He volunteers there, from time to time, helping kids with their math homework, and trying to recruit future members of The Great World of Business.
He loved business, back in the days when he lived in the city and ran the pawn shop. For years now, ever since he hung up his jeweler’s loupe, he’s told us that there was an excitement to making the right deal.
“It has to be right for the customer and for me, or it isn’t right at all,” Herb always says. “You can do that and make several people happy and earn a living. There’s no need Read More

Fr. Glenn: A Model To Follow
By Fr. Glenn Jones:
It’s you parents’ lot to worry about your kids—who they hang around with, what they are exposed to, what models for life will they emulate, etc. Will they be good persons?

No doubt almost every parent will rue some of his kids’ choices at one time or another, but you also know they have to learn the consequences of going down a foolish path … hopefully learning them prior to serious damage to themselves or to others.
So, whom should Read More
