31 In an earlier speech to the trades society in 1868, Jevons invoked the notion of parental duty against efforts to reduce the work day: ‘‘But what I wish especially to point out to you is that a man’s duty to himself after all should give place to his duty to his children and his wife. It is right for a man or for anyone who works to desire to reduce his working hours from ten to eight, but I think he should abstain from doing so until his children are put to

school, and kept there till they are well educated and likely to do better than their parents,” Ibid., p. 109.
