q There's no telling when you may be
called upon to mobilize your forces to
meet crisis in your life.
q And the way to prepare for it is to
form to-day the Triple Alliance Of
Ambitien, Determination and Saving.
q The first two make possible the third
land that prepares you to do battle,
let your crisis come when it may.
q Physical conditions beyond your
control may bring you face to face with
a crisis in private or business life most
any day
q Make sure of Safety Firstp' Be
ambitious---earn money by your deter
mination to succeed---and regularly put
in our keepinga share ofyour earnings.
We will pay you interest thereon. and
when life's Declaration of War is made
against you, it will find you fortified.

money.
G Chests at home and abroad have

SEEK PROTECTION
FOR The KIDDlES
Fifth Avenue Speeders Said to
Be Menace to Life
and Limb.

Two hundred residents of the east
end have signed petition with the
object of securing greater protection
for the children attending the Nc
Kinley school. The petition was pre-
scented to the board of education at
yesterday meeting. 1t reads as fol-
lows:
I'VE, the tax payers and parents of
the east end, do petition your honor
able body for viaduct or bridge over
Fifth avenue at the Mckinley school.
for the protection TO life and limb OF
the children attending the school"
Speeders who frequent Fifth avenue
are said to be the menace to the life
and limb of the children, and though
repeated efforts have been made to
have the city commission inaugurate
some means of protection, that body
has failed to heed the requests, and as
a last effort the matter has been taken
to the board of education. A traffic
officer at this point was asked by the
east end residents from the city com
mission, but no action was taken. 4
viaduct, it is estimated, would cost
but $500 and would afford ample pro-
lection.
