Fall Back

[pioneer]

Every man should make his son or daughter learn some useful trade or profession, so that in these days of
changing fortunes of being rich to-day and poor tomorrow they may have something tangible to fall back
upon. This provision might save many persons from misery, who by some unexpected turn of fortune have
lost all their means. - P.T. Barnum
