I shook hands with my father in the truck, and for a long time he looked straight ahead and didn’t say a word. But I knew he was going to say a little to me. “I can’t tell anything,” he finally said. “I never went to college, and none of your brothers went to college. I can’t say don’t do this and do that, because everything is different and I don’t know what is going to come up. I can’t help much with money either, but I think things will work out. ”
He gave me a new check-book. “If things get pushing, write a small check. But when you write one, send me a letter and let me know how much. There are some things we can always sell.” In four years all the checks I wrote were less than a thousand dollars. My part-time jobs such as reading to the blind student and sitting with the teachers’ kids filled in the financial gaps.
“You know what you want to be, and they’ll tell you what to take,” my father went on. “When you get a job, be sure it’s honest, and work hard.” I knew that soon I would be alone in the big town, and I would be missing the cool winds and a life where your thinking was done for you.
Then my dad reached down beside his seat and brought the old, broken Bible that he had read so often, the one he used when he wanted to look something up in a friendly quarrel with one of the neighbours. I knew he would miss it. I knew, though, that I must take it.
He didn’t say read this every morning. He just said, “This can help you if you will let it.”
Did it help? I got through college without being a burden on the family. I have been able to make money since.

| Every Saturday night Mama would sit down by the table and count out the money Papa had brought home. Mama would carefully divide big groups for the housing, and food, and one or two coins for Nels or 1 -Katrin to buy notebooks. With 2 interest we would watch the money becoming less and less. At last Papa would ask, "Is all?" When Mama nodded, we could relax a little. For Mama would look up and smile, "Is good," she'd say, "we do not have to go to the Bank.” It was a wonderful thing, that bank account (银行账户) of Mama's. We were all so proud of it.It gave us such a warm, 3 feeling. When finishing school Nels wanted to go on to high. "It will cost a little money," Nels said to Mama. We gathered around the table watching a box in front of Mama. This was the "Little Bank" -used for unexpected situations. Nels had it all written out. So much for what he would need. Mama looked at the 4 for a long time. Then she counted the money in the Little Bank. There wasn't enough. "We do not," she said to us gently, "want to have to go to the Bank." We all 5 our heads. "I'll work in Dillon's shop after school," Nels 6 . Mama smiled at him. Papa said, "Is not enough.”Then he took his pipe out of his mouth."I give up smoking," he said. Mama 7 the table and touched Papa's hand, but she didn't say anything. "I will mind the Elvington children every Friday night," I said. "Is good," Mama said. We all felt very good. We had passed another milestone（绊脚石 ) 8 having to go downtown and draw money out of the bank. So many things,I remember, came out of the Little Bank during the past 20 years. Even during the Strike（罢工）,Mama wouldn't let us worry too much. We all worked together 9 the important trip downtown could be put off. The day the Strike was over and Papa 10 to work, I saw Mama stand a little straighter. Last year I sold my first story. I hurried to Mama's and showed her the check. " For you," I said, "to put in your Bank Account. " "Is no 11 ," Mama said. "In all my life, I've never been inside a Bank. " And when I didn't-couldn't-answer, Mama said 12 ,"Is not good for little ones to be afraid-to not feel safe. " | ||||
