FoR THE CHILD
Here Is a Unique Way of Saw,
ing Money

A company is doing business In the
middle west on plan new to me. II
is taking advantage Of the general de-
sire of parents to save for the educa-
ton and future benefit of the child to
market coupons redeemable after a
certain amount of goods are purchas-
ed from indicated stores.
Here is the explanation of the COM
pany's plan: Your most reliable and
responsible merchants will pay into
your child's back account 21-2 per
cent of all cash purchases of so cents
or more made by you and by your
friends at their stores. If you run an
account many of these merchants
give you 1-2 per cent. of your bill
When you pay it.
Payment of this 21-2 per cent. is
made in the form of coupons, to be
deposited in bank. The coupons are
on-negotiable; that is, they cannot be
converted into cash. No cumbersome
method of registering the child is nee
sssary. The coupons. are good only
or deposit in sound bank. Here
ley are accepted as cash deposited in
he name Of your child. The coupons
or deposit. are to, be taken to the
,ank in an amount not less than ST..
The banker accepts the coupons as
ash deposited and makes out in the
:hild's name a regular bank passbook,
t the same time issuing a certificate
If membership. The handbook re-
mains in possession of the child and
shows the amount deposited.
This money cannot be drawn from
he bank until the child has arrived at
he age of 81. On that day the bank
II will pay over the money the child
deposited, with a smile of encourage
nent and wish for the success of the
10Y or girl. -. -.
This is an interesting variation of
he merchandise coupon idea; it is one
which, in good hands, ought to work
yell to encourage the growth of thrift.

TRADE EXPANSION
I'M FULL SWING

Bradstreet's, August "a: Expan-
sion is the key word of the trade sit.
uation as the month draws to close
and buyers feel the seasonal spur to
the laying in of supplies for fall and
winter. This is, of course. largely
predicted upon the prospect of as.
sured or expected large crop yields,
and finds chief expression in the
west, northwest and southwest, where
crop certainty has, generally speak.
ing, supplanted prediction. Coinci-
dentally with the marketing of the
early gathered crops, collections show
a tendency to improve, and the money
market likewise gives evidence of in
creased activity and strength of quo
,tations Perhaps the only possible
check to full present or near future
activity is found in the gradually en-
livening political campaign, but 1t Is
a matter of widespread sremark that
political discussion is apparently
given less than expected weight.
while trade and industrial attention
is largely riveted upon the more solid
assurance of good crops and the ex-
pansion of human activities that
usher in the autumn season.
Weather conditions have not been
altogether favorable to trade this
week, heavy rains having visited most
sections of the country, but particu-
larry the northwest, where spring.
wheat harvesting, threshing and
movement have been interfered with.
and also the corn belt, where, how
ever, the rains are regarded as a fa-
vorable feature. in that a supply of
moisture sufficient to mature that
crop has now fallen. Warm, dry
weather is the chief desideratum
there and in the south, where cotton
is conceded TO haze gained ground
during August, and a next-to-record
crop of the sonth's chief staple is APP
parently in the making. Trade de-
mand has expanded noticeably in dry
goods, lumber. coal, wool, shoes,
leather, and last, but by no means
least, In iron and steel, where higher
prices have apparently not acted as D
bar to further booking.

wall, or what he had done toward putting into
effect in this territory some such system as the
Carey act provides, the delegate, who points with
pride to his ten years record in Washington,
actually stammered and plainly found the ques-
ton not to his liking.
The truth is that so far neither Kuhio nor his
counsel have had any real constructive criticism
TO make.
Have they any at all? The hearings are well
advanced, and as yet Kuhio's Cease" looks

ANDREWS

Lorrin Andrews and his part in this cam
paign can be summed up in a few words. An
drews is the busy little chap who tried to edge
his way into the Taft league this spring to fight
Kuhio Getting nothing from the Taft league
but the polite intimation that it couldn't afford
to be mixed up with. him, he promptly ran over
10 the Kuhio camp to sit up and beg for an en-
couraging look or a bone. What he got there is
d matter Of history, and the glorious licking he
took in his precinct the eighth of the fourth, was
only equaled by the glorious licking he had been
given in another precinct, the third of the
fourth, two years previously. Now he has
lodged through the back door into the Kuhio
camp, where few bones have doubtless been
flung to him.
Scuttling around from door to door, wherever
there are bones for himself to be picked up, is
not particularly nice, but political mongrels
cannot afford to be nice

WHAT IS KUHlO's CASE I

Delegate Kuhio again yesterday, as he has
done repeatedly during the hearings before Mr..
Fisher, exhibited lack of constructive crit
cism for the present conditions that would be
Ridiculous we're it not so serious.
1t was so serious that it drew from Mr.. Fisher
d comment that amounted to rebuke, the com.
ment that it does not do for one man to impugn
the motives of another who has not done some
thing that the first man cannot tell how TO do
Moreover, the delegate, backed into corner
quickly by few very simple questions put for
information by the secretary, got himself on rec.
ord in a way that does no good to his own per,
sonal fight by saying this:
aPerhaps the fault is not very much on the
administration here perhaps the fault is in
Washington .#.@
And again: p.= .s..
81 think something should be done"
But lust 4rh0 is to blame the delegate is .un-
able to prove; just arhat should be done, he is
unable to point out He made one half-hearted
suggestion yesterday, and that was government

ion that can tell just how it makes
the human heart feel to be cared
for as we have been cared for by
the good people of Holly during
the bereavement we have Just suf.
fered in the death of our beloved
son Morris, who departed from
this life March 18th last. Stricken
az We were we could not tell in
the blindness of grief which way
to turn but it seemed that there
was a helping hand extended.
Nothing gthat tenderness or thought
fulness could suggest was lacking
in word or deed. We hope that
these good people will accept this
tribute as the attempt of wounded
hearts to convey to them an idea
of the great gratitude which we
feel but know not how to express.
