Spending and Saving

Jim Jimpson's drawn a prince
1y wage for seven years or more;
he's selling sassafras and sage at
Dinky's doodad store. AS sales
man he is Number One, he has
fetching style, so Dinky pays him
lots of mon, and he should have
his pile. On Saturday he draws
his wad, so big it springs his
knees; alas, he scatters it abroad,
as though it grew on trees. By
Tuesday noon he's always broke,
his gorgeous roll. he's blown; and
so he hunts up Sammy Smoke,
and works him for a loan. This
Sammy Smoke, a springald meek,
is junior in the store; he pulls
down thirteen plunks a week, and
never handled more. He keeps
close tab on every buck, each
week he salts down five, and
while the others cuss their luck
he always seems to thrive. When
Jim at last is out and down, as
spenders always are, Sam Smoke
will junket Though the town in
his own touring car. 1t isn't
what a fellow earns that makes
him poor or rich; it's what the
gay high roller burns that dumps
him in the ditch. Old age must
come to all, you bet, unless we die
too soon, and then what oodles
of regret fills life's late afternoon,
if we in poverty are sunk, our
last resources spent; how we be-
wall the vanished plunk that easy
came and went!
