life as clerk and built up great
business, is quoted as having said:
IF you would succeed in business
never spend a cent more than you
earn. No matter how small your
earnings, you should master this art.
I use the word art advisedly. as so
many young men appear to fritter
away. without so much as thought,
all their earnings"

boy and who now owns mammoth
stores in Philadelphia, New York and

"The difference between the clerk
who spends all his salary and the
clerk who saves part if it is the
difference--in ten years-between the
owner Of business and the man out

says:
How can one be ready for the

less he has cultivated the habit of
economy and prudence? He must
save all he can in season and out OF
season."
Andrew Carnegie adds the following
statement:
THE man who does not and can.
not save money cannot and will not
do anything else worth while
Abraham Lincoln said:
Teach economy, that is one Of the
first and highest virtues. 1t begins
with saving money"
Theodore Roosevelt is quoted as
saying:
"Extravagence rots character; train
hand the habit Of saving money while
it stiffens the will also ,brightens the
energies. - If you would be sure that
you are beginning right, begin to
save"
A banker in Bangor, Me-, adds this
practical illustration Of systematic
thrift:
81 have in mind a young man about
twenty years of age working as
slate maker in one of our quarries who
is one of the regular depositors in the
savings department. During a period
of four years just passed he has de-
posted each month an average Of SIS
a total of 81, 200 for the period, or $500
per year. This is good yearly saw
ing, considering the average of steady
work for him is nine months out OF
the year.
Periodically this young man with.
draws $500 and invests in good bonds
yielding fair interest Since the
Inauguration Of his saving habit,
about four years ago, he has accu-
INFLATED $4,000 in such securities, and
if he maintains his average savings
for several years to come he will un.
doubtedly have the nucleus of small
fortune and be in position to estab.
lish himself comfortably in the world.
"Such an example OF thrift is worthy
of imitation and is unquestionably the
surest way to become independent.
The man who succeeds while work
ing on salary and the man who sue.
ceeds in business must use the same
methods. The most successful business
enterprise is thu one that is the best
organized and managed. The most
successful individual is the one who
uses system and forethought in bis
personal financial affairs. He is the
ore most likely to make satisfactory

Telephone Booth at Depot

Mr.. +. T. Atkinson has install
ed a public telephone booth at the
depot for the accommodation of
the travelling public. This will
be big accommodation to the
public as it will give them an OPP
portunity to call up town without
bothering the agent to use the
depot phone. 1t will be a nickle
in the slot machine and for this
small amount one will be able to
save themselves many steps and
one can call up and attend to
matters that they would not have
time to go and do personally.

Married at North Platte

When Ernest Sigsby stepped
off the train here last week no one
suspected that he had come west
to take from us one of our most
popular young ladies'. We think
if we had suspected it we would
have had him deported as an un-
desirable but Ernest took no one
into his condolences but he and
Miss Ethel Sorenson quietly went
to North Platte where they were
married and proceeded to their
new home at Algoaa, Iowa. Ern-
est was well and favorably known
here having worked for some
time in the Ked Vance Plumbing
establishment and last spring
opened up like business of his
own IN Algona, Iowa. Miss Sor-
enson is the daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Antoue Sorenson prosperous
ranch owners south of Ovid and
was one OF the favorites among
both young and old both at Ovid
and Julesburg. AS long as they
have outwitted us and gotten safe
ly away we are going to forgive
and wish them all of the good
things of this life that can possib
ly come to them.

will all find that no matter how

CEMETERY Assn.
NEEDS ASSISTANCE
UNLESS FUNDS ARE FoRrHcoM.

TikvEo AS HERETOFORE.

The organization known as the Hat
tiesburg Cemetery Association, Of
which Mrs. Geo. Komp is president,
Mrs. c. T. Hollinger, vice-president,
and Mrs. L. M. Williams. secretary.
which has for more than a year kept
up its work of caring for the graves
in the city cemetery, seems near the
point of dissolution for the reason that
its funds are about exhausted.
The funds required for the work of
this very useful civic body have been
derived solely from amounts paid as
annual dues by those who, having
loved ones buried In the cemetery,
have been willing to pay an annual fee.
The money derived from this source
during the past year has barely been
sufficient to do the work, though with
it the ladies have kept the cemetery
in very creditable state. The time
has come when the income does not
provide for the labor required and 1t
seems the work will, Of necessity, be
abandoned. This Is regretted, because
of the fact that the cemetery, which
at one time was unsightiy with its
growth of weeds and grass, was made
neat and attractive after Mrs. Komp
and her assistants took up the work
Of the cemetery association.
The cemetery association has sew.
eral times endeavored to secure from
the city the privilege Of taking over
the entire care of the cemetery with
the idea that II the monthly appro
priation made from the city treasury
was turned over to them It would 90
supplement their income, as to en-
able them to do the work In a thor
ough manner. The city commission
has declined to sccede to this request
saying that because they considered
the cemetery part Of the civic bod,
over which they were called TO I'D
. minister, they were not authorized b
surrender its care to any other or
e ganized body. The city has no con
troll over the private lots, hence nj
legal authority to work them exists
Without a cemetery association It I
' certain no general care Of the privat
i lots in the cemetery can be had. On
less all the lots are kept clear of weed
and Johnson grass the beauty Of tn
