Thrift.

Thrift is virtue. No people can long
be free who are not thrifty. 1t is true
that thrift sometimes passes beyond vir-
tue, degenerating into the vice Of greed.
BECAUSE there are men who are greedy
drunk with the intoxication Of wealth and
power-we sometimes are told that wealth
and power are criminal There are some
that hold that thrift is folly and personal
ownership crime. in the new [ 'opia
all is to be for oil, and no one can claim
monopoly, not even Of himself. There
may be worlds in which this shall he true.
It is not true in the world into which you
have been born. Nor can il be. In the
world we know the free man should have
a reserve Of power, and this power is rep
resented by money. II thrift ever ceases
to be virtue it will be at "a time long in
the future. Before that time comes our
Anglo Saxon race will have passed away
and our civilization will be forgotten

ABOUT HOME INDUSTRIES
The Friday Morning Club Discuss the
Subject
At Their Third Unofficial Meeting in the Club
Rooms Yesterday Short Paper by
Mrs. Virgins

A good many of the mbers of the
Friday Morning club thought yesterda,
was pretty warm day. At least that
the inference drawn from the fact th.
only twenty-five or thirty of thos
indefatigable seekers after knowledge an,
sef-culture were venturesome enough Il
go TO the club rooms for the third un-
official vacation meeting.
The subject yesterday was Home In
dustries and Production, and after Miss
Wills had been appointed chairman for
the day. Mrs. Frank Wlggins read short
and informal paper on the subject to be
discussed. Mrs. Virgins is firm believer
in the propagation of home production
she advocates patronIzing home indus
tries, even to the exten of practicing
what she breaches in the equipment of
her own home.
\ more or less animated discussion fol-
lowed the paper, on the comparative
merits of local and imported canned
fruits and vegetables. jellies and olives.
condensed milk and various other dain-
ties that find their origin here as well as
abroad.
1t was a very toothsome subject and
made every body so hungry that by II 30
