Economy is the cause of most of our

of our marriages. Economy is the back
bone of saving banks, the protector of
the flour bin and the chief foe of the
automobile salesman. Economy fills the

FOUNDER OF A CHURCH.

Editor FL Paso Herald:
In your issue of last Friday appeared
an item regarding the visit of the Rev.
L. c. Preston TO this city. which stated
that he organized the Congregational
church OF this city. In justice to tire
man wha did organize this church l
wish to tate that the Rev Frank G.
Whittam was the man who did il all.
He with Mrs. Chas. De Croft, Ed W
Pew, Louis 7. BOttO, ALI ". Cheeseman,
F. B. Stuart, ". II. Eustace and the
writer OF this letter were the ones who
started the movement and eventually
organized the church, and the writer
was chairman of the first board Of
trustees.
After the church was on a good ba-
sis the Rev. T. c. WhitJam was called TO
another field by the Congregational
board. and Rev. E. c. Preston was
called to take his place. He remained
as pastor a very short time and then
the Rev. Miles Hansen. who has so sue
cessfully built up the church, was called
a its pastor and still remains as such.
Am writing this only to give the Rev.
Mr.. Whittam the credit that he is really
entitled to.
Colonel Lewis.

Economy
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author Of fAt Good Old SiWaBh.S

d CONOMY is the art of stretching
dollars and magnifying pennies.
Without economy a dollar viii
only buy a proud nod from a waiter OF
ten minute rest in a taXieab. With the
help of economy a dollar will buy a
weeks board for one or a years street
car fare or ten years neckties.
Economy can stretch out a dollar so
thin that you can see through the eagle.
1t viii then be so extensive that it viii
take its owner a week to spend 1t.
When a man has achieved true con-
OmY it takes him so long to spend a
dollar that he has earned five more in
the meantime and has lost all hopes of
catching up.
Many a man who has several thOusand
dollars waiting patiently to be spent, IS
putting his whole soul into an effort to
get one more coffee berry or three more
pTunes for a nickel. The result is he
usually dies with most of his dollars
still hanging around the premises.
Such men are regarded with great pity
by the yOun0 man who has Just got his
next weeks supply OF dollars from the
boss and Is riOtOusly blowing them in
on a new necktie. two theater tickets
and a rubbertired cab.

We foolish folk are diseontented with
things where'er we chance to dwell.
The air." we say, SIS sweeter scented
in some far distant dale OF dell" And
so We pull up stakes and travel to seek
the fair and promised land, and find
OUT Canaan is but gravel, a wilderness of
rocks and sand. Across the hills the
fields are greener," We murmur, 'and
the view more fair; the water of the
brooks is cleaner, and fish grow larger
over there" And so we leave our pleas

We part, and DER the stony hills we
sally, to reach a land that breaks the
heart. There's gold in plenty over

the mines" Then from our cheerful
homes We wander, far from our figtrees
and our vines; a little while our dreams
we cherish, and think that we can never
fail; but, tired at last, we drop and per-
ish, and leave our bones upon the trail
How happy is the man whose nature
permits him to enjoy his home, who, till
