THEY WILL TEACH THRIFT.
New Society Is Designed to Help Peo-
pie to Save.


Teaching of thrift in the public
schools, colleges and universities, dis
cussion of thrift by commercial organ
izations from its economic standpoint.
preaching about it in the churches from
its moral aspect are few of the plans
of the American Society For Thrift
which has begun national campaign
from its headquarters in Chicago.
S. w. Straus, banker of New York
and Chicago, is chairman of the or.
ganization committee and announces
that the society is soliciting no funds
ITO promote nationally the individual
economy which is the basis of good
citizenship and community prosperity"
says Mr.. Straus, "this organization has
taken up a nation wide inquiry to de-
termine how best and most quickly to
change the prodigal spirit of our times
to the spirit of thrift. 1t is the plan
to make the personnel of the board and
advisory council Of the society nation
ally representative. All trades, indus
tries, charities and philanthropies will
be represented. All representative bod
les will be asked to cooperate.
'"The prevailing spirit in the United
States once was that of thrift. Today
we are a prodigal nation. The max
inns of Poor Richard which did much
to keep the heads Of the people level
for half a century, seem forgotten
Thrift means more than saving-it
means earning, working, planning, in
creasing as well as conserving. Upon
individual thrift the prosperity and
thrift of the nation depend. 1t is high
time that something be done to encour-
age and teach those who in the past
have been misled by get rich quick
schemes or who have lacked knowl-
edge of how to save"

mint and a little red fruit coloring.
These mints can be dipped into melted

fresh water. The amount of business
done in the city is surprising consider
ing its size.
Various writer's have tried to de-
scribe the beautiful bay of Guaymas.
Says one John G. Van Dyke: "The
bay of Guaymas is typical of all the
gulf bays and is fair illustration of
the coast scenery. 1t is one of the
most beautiful harbors in the world.
Bare mountains, 1900 feet high, sur
round it and look down upon it, and
in the morning, when the harbor wa
ter is smooth, their reflections are as
clear cut as though cast in a mirror
The local color of the water is green
but the intense blue Of the sky changes
it by reflection to a deep cobalt, and
the mountains of rock are brown, terra
Gotta, rose color, changed again by sun
set light into mounds and spires and
pinnacles Of gold, crimson, lilac and
purple.
Day after day there is the blue glow
OF the clear sky, but at dawn, when
there is haze or few fleecy clouds,
the eastern sky flames with yellow and
scarlet, and at sunset brilliant car
mines, spectral green's and burning
colds stretch in great bands along the
gulf horizon or are reflected from the
wind blown cirrus of the upper sky.
From the mountain tops on clear nights
one can look across to Lower California,
ninety miles away, and the contrast of
the wide cobalt of gulf, with the wide,
flaming sky above it, is most violent,
imposing, awe inspiring"

Tampico and Matamoros.

Tamptco and Matamoros are the two
ports OF entry of Tamaulipas. Tam
pico Is one Of the most important ports
in the republic, ranking after Vera
Cruz in east coast traffic. Situated six
miles from the mouth of the Panuco
river, 1t has several fine public build
ings, tramcars, q chamber of com
merce and is modern in all ways. The
Tampico-Tuxpan canal connects the la
goons along the coast. The same
steamship companies serve Vera Cruz
that make Tampico a port Of call also.
Matamoros, ON the Rio Grande, in
the extreme northern part of the state,
is connected with the Texas side of
the river by an international bridge.
The city is thirty-one miles from the
gulf and therefore has no great marine
traffic, but the commerce with the Unit
ed States is Of decided Importance and
growing.
Mazatlan, in the state of Sinaloa, Is
one of the principal ports on the west
coast. Though 1t Is a quaint old city,
1t is progressive, and there are large
number Of foreign and Mexican bust
ness houses located there. In anticipa-
tion Of largely increased commerce
with the opening of the Panama canal
the Mexican government planned to
build breakwaters and to deepen the
channels, as had already been done at
Manzanillo, on the southwest coast, and

visitor is Immediately struck by the
fascinating panorama spread before
him. The city stands on a small penin-
sula opposite the bay of Olas Atlas
(high waves) and Is unusually attrac-
tive because of the groves of cocoanut
trees which environ it. The town is
very level, the highest point being
twenty-one feet above the level of the
sea. Its crescent shaped bay is con-
stantly dotted with trade vessels from
California, South America and Euro
pean ports.
Topolobampo and Altata are the 9TH
er chief seaports of Sinaloa. Altata is
a port for coastng vessels only and is
connected with Culiacan the capital of
the state, by a forty-fve mile railway
Topolobampo has the finest harbor be-
tween San Diego and Panama.
Culiacan Is the oldest city on the
west coast, and it was there, according
to tradition, that the Aztecs ended their
nomadic existence and developed the
highest degree of civilization found
among the aborigines of America. Gull
acan has an immense sugar trade and
is one Of the most fertile regions Of
Mexico. .-

ern Pacific railway extends from
Guaymas to Nogales and from Quay
mas to Mazatlan, with an extension to
Guadalajara, opening up one Of the
richest sections In the country.
Guaymas has population Of about
1900, and they do an enormous mer-
camille business In supplying the min
ing regions in the mountains and the
ranchmen along the Yaqui river. Its
natural business is doubled by contHi-
buttons from smaller ports, both north
