eating drinks? If neither of the parties
nominate candidates of such a character.
then can they maintain their principles
by refusing to vote at all. They will
thus take high ground, worthy of a
religious body, and wholly above the
lower level of party politics. Such
action would probably produce little or
no effect upon our primaries at first, not
even in our good Quaker State of
Pennsylvania, but such a stand would
soon become publicly known, and would
encourage other religious organizations
to do the same, and in due time, II the
various religious bodies could forget
their causes of difference, and stand
shoulder to shoulder against this most
prolific source of crime in our land, not
all the comb ned money power of the
Liquor League and the National Brewers
Association could possibly long resist the
united weight of the Christian Churches .
BY taking this ground, too, they would
be entirely relieved from any charge or
suspicion of being moved to action by a
desire for place or Office, which, of itself,
would give additional weight to the
influence which they could exert.

A feature of school life, and one worthy
to be a part Of the curriculum in every
public school at least, are the lessons of

them to save their pennies and then place
them iu saving banks for accumulation.
We notice by a recent item that the
Secuity Trust and Safe Deposit Company
Of Camden, which is the depository for
the savings of the public school children
of Camden, Atlantic City, Delair,
Gloucester City, Haddoufeld, Merchant
vile, Pensauken and Stockton, has on
deposit from this source s41, 465, 78. Of
this amount sci ,239 10 yet remains to the
credit of the dt tositors. During the
same period $50. 1866 has been with
drawn. The total number of accounts is
1856. The bank pays three per cent.
interest. The children of the Camden
schools who are depositors in this saving
fund number 1925, and they have
deposited S27, 1897 and have withdrawn
~$15,023.99. The system provides for the
teachers receiving the savings of the
children once a week, and it is deposited
to their credit. By such means habits of
economy and thrift an inculcated in the
youthful mind. Il is readily seen that
instruction of this kind is of the greatest
bentft and certainly of more lasting
value than many of the educational
"frills and furbelows'' to which so many
schools give their attention. 1t matters
little whether a child saves $40 or 10 cents
in a given time. If that child is taught
to save all it can and to take a real pride
in saving the main object is accomplished.
