Saving and Spending.

Stuyvesant Fish, the railway magnate, has delivered himself of the opinion that Americans are extravagant. He calls us a nation of spendthrifts. During hard times," he says, i've are forced to be prudent and thrifty, and in get rich fast CT than we do in what we call prosperous times."
 If everyone pinches, trade will languish, employment become harder to obtain, and still more pinching will be necessary to meet losses in profits and fall in wages. Therein lies the fallacy of the theory that universal par simony adds to the wealth of the nation.
 One class of people alone gain by universal saving. That is the class from which the United States has suffered most in the past, and has most to fear today the frenzied financiers and monopolists. The savings of the people become the tool of the men organizing the big trusts, seizing upon natural resources or financing wildly speculative scenes.
 For remember the money with which the big financiers fix the yoke of monopoly upon the necks of the people is not their own, but the savings of the peo- p!e themselves.
 The American people spend more per capita than any other people on earth. But they pro- duce more. Their liberal eXpen- diture is an essential to their liberal production and active do- nestle commerce.
 It is what a people spend, quite as much as what they save, , that adds to a nations wealth.
 The mania for saving which makes the individual hard and miserly is one thing; and the saving which means sobriety, in- dustry, home ownership, integ- rity, good citizenship and edu- cation of children is quite an other Memphis News-Scimi- tar.

As we write an auto has just passed the office of the Co-opera- tive Press, which has attracted our attention. The machine is evidently owned by a farmer. On the running board was fas- tened a large cake of ice and the rear of the machine was fill ed with empty berry crates. This turn to town in the morning with the crates filled with fresh crisp berries for which the high est market price will be secured. The automobile has already passed the luxury stage. It has become a utility vehicle. Our columns usually contain adver- tisements for machines of vari- ous makes, machines that are built and being sold by reputable firms for the countryman's use. These machines are not prohibit tive in price, and yet are vouch- ed for and sold in many cases by
 the same firm that sells you the
 cultivator or binder. In nearly
 every section of the country the

Buntinu Thoroughly Tested.

In very truth modern battl~shlE does, in modern phrasing, carry some bunting. About $15O,00O is spent by the United States navy for flags each year. Every case of bunting costs the government $560; every roll costs 311.25. The bunting comes from Mas sachusetts. Every piece Is subjected to the most severe test. It must weigh five pounds to every forty yards and stand the weight test of seventy pounds to two square inches. It is steeped in salt water for six hours and then exposed to the sun for the same period of time.

Following in the footsteps of some
of her northern sisters. the city of Bir-
mingham is to have a municipal Christ
mas tree this year Although several
of the northern cities have had muniei-
pal Christmas trees, this is the first
time the idea has invaded the south
land, and 1t promises well. Birmingham
is to have the honor of being the first
southern city to have one.
1t was learned at the Chamber Of
Commerce yesterday that several ladies,
headed by the wife of a prominent
physician. had conceived the idea of
the Christmas tree for the stranger
within our gates" The idea of these
ladies was to have a large tree placed
in Capitol park, gayly decorated, illum7
ined by electricity. One of the best
bands in the city will furnish music
each night from 6 to 8 o'clock and the
public is cordially invited to come and
hear. The tree is to be for the people
of Birmingham and those who might
be visiting the city; the strangers in

will be on display two days
The lady who originated the idea
thought that there We're many young
men and old in this city at Christmas
tide, who were away from home and
who would, perhaps, remember the gay
Christmases of their childhood, when
a tree was placed in the middle of the
parlor and all the children gathered
round to receive their presents. She
believes that if huge tree were to be
placed in Capitol park and the public
invited cordially to come and see and
make merry, it would be the means of
making some melancholy soul more
happy.
No money is to be solicited from the
public and the city will not be asked
to contribute. The ladies plan to have
as many donations as possible in the
way of lights etc. The tree, of course,
is to be contributed and will come from
the northern part of the state. 1t is
the hope of the ladies that they can get
. the transportation of the tree free. The
music will be donated, it is hoped. and
the incidental expenses outside of those
mentioned will be covered by Volun-
tary individual subscriptions.
