  7. Next Session: May 2, 2012 Benjamin Franklin & Ben and Me Jeopardy To prepare: Read the book closely. Study the Inventions of Benjamin Franklin I do not pretend to give such a Sum; I only lend it to you. When you [...] meet with another honest Man in similar Distress, you must pay me by lending this Sum to him; enjoining him to discharge the Debt by a like operation, when he shall be able, and shall meet with another opportunity. I hope it may thus go thro' many hands, before it meets with a Knave that will stop its Progress. This is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good with a little money. ~Benjamin Franklin in a letter to Benjamin Webb Pay it Forward Explore: http://www.pbs.org/benfranklin/
