Teaching EOyS to Save.

"AbOvc ALL teach the children to
save-cconomy is the sure founda-
ton for all virtues. Victor Hugo.
The boy is father to the man and
much can be male OF him if caught
young enough
Many success ful man SAYS he Got
his start by saving and that it was
/ the early lessons of thrift at home
that made him a saver.
Professor William "A. AlcKceyor has
given a lot of time to the study and
investigation of methods of training
boys in this important particular. The
Kansas state Agricultural College has
published some of his conclusions in
the form of bulletins, from which the
following is an extract:
III is often the case, especially
among farmers, that the growing boy
never sees any money Of his own ex-
cepting on rare occasions like Christ
mas and the Fourth Of July, and then
he regards his shining quarter as an
object of curiosity and scarcely knows
how to spend it. Often in a case like
this. it is found that the father is
looking upon his son as a kind of in
vestment to be made as profitable as
possible. This boys time belongs to
me. l am at considerable expense for
his board and clothes and winter
schooling, and l have q right to re-
Quire him to do all he can in return.
had very little spending money dur
ing my boyhood.' This is, in sub
stance, the sentiment expressed by a
prosperous farmer. The boy was be-
ing exploited for the sake of the farm
and not the farm for the sake of the
boy, as the case should have been.
81 never gavc one OF my boys a
cent said another father who was
successful in this home training.
From childhood, under my guidance,
they always earned all they got I'D
thus learned to know the value of it.
My fifteen-year-Old boy is Il spend
thrift said another. 1t simply is not
In him to save, although l have been
trying for three years to teach him
this lesson Inquiry into this case
The watchman and southron. [volume] (Sumter, S.C.) 1881-1930, 1914-12-09

brought out tho fact that up to his
twelfth year this boy had been thor
oughly indulscd in all the habits Of
the spendthrift."
After he has been taught to earn
money, it is all-important that the
boy be instructed carefully in the mat
ter Of saving. The evidence goes to
show that Il bank or trust company
furnishes the most common and salts
factury means o. saving. The relation
OF these institutions TO the boy de-
pOsitOr is always one Of helpfulncss
and encouragement. 1t matters not
how little the lad may be earning, soc
that he saves a portion of it. Give
him toy bank at first, and as soon
as he has accumulated dollar or
more have it placed to his credit in
q bank Of deposit. Develop his inter-
est in the matter by talking to him
and by taking him to the bank with
YOU, where he may see the papers
made out.
Try to develop in the young flnan-
cier's mind some reasonable purpose
for which this money is being saved,
and lead him by degrees to have fond
anticipatiOns of it's final use. Have
the boys savings deposited in an in
stitutiOn that allows interest on such
accounts, explaining 70 him just how
money grows when bearing interest
and how compound interest is interest
on intcrcst.-T. ID. MacGregor.

WILSON REGIME PASSES FIRST
 ANNIVERSARY
Administration Marked by Im- pOrtant Changes in
 Nations Laws.

Washington, March 4-The Demo- cratic administration is a year old today. Just 12 months ago at noon, Woodrow Wilson stood on the east front of the capitol and took the oath of office, ushering the Democracy into control of all branches of the na- tional government for the first time in 20 years.
 At the White House, in executive quarters generally and in Congress sional. circles. the day served to re- call the work of the heeting year. Members of Congress realized that ex- cept for a short breathing. spell at the Christmas holidays they had been in practically continuous session. From the time the President broke a century old precedent and stood before an as- sembled Congress to urge the enact ment of a low tariff close cooperation has reigned between the chief execu- tive and the leaders of the dominant party in Congress.
 The enactment of a tariff law on October 3, 1913, making vital changes in the duties on imports, was follow ed by the signing of a banking and currency act December B, 191S- These two laws and the recent ratidca- ton of the arbitration treaties are the things to which the Presidents friends were pointing as the direct result of the intimate contact established be- tween the executive and legislative departments of the government.
 FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
 Much Of the Presidents time and energy have been spent in wrestling with a troublesome Mexican situation as yet unsolved, and the diplomatic tangle with Japan growing out of the passage by California of new anti alien land law.
 Lately he has been devoting himself to a rehabilitation of the foreign re- lat nf5f f7o fad fof f7ad draf r.. ing with Secretary Bryan of new, peace treaties, the settlement of the Panama. Canal tolls controversy with Great Britain, difficulties with Colom- bia growing out of the partition of Panama, and many other subjects
 Five times the President has ap- peared before Congress delivering messages Sn the tariff, the currency, Mexican affairs. the annual report on the state of the Union and trust 1egis- lation. The recommendations of his annual message for the building of an Alaskan railway, rural credits and antitrust reform are stiII in the hands of Congress with assurances that they will be>made law before the expected adjournment in June.
 PRECEzDENTS BROKEN
 Washington residents of many years to whom the ways and manners of the Presidents have been a, matter of intimate observation, have watched President Wilson with interest. He has broken many precedents-his ways have been quite informal but the most conspicuous characteristic of all is his disinc1ination to making public speeches.
 He has declined hundreds of invita- tions to functions in all parts of the country. He has attended but one public banquet-last night ceremony l of the National Geographic Society when Col. Goethals was presented with gold medal by MT. Wilson on behalf of the society His only other speeches were made to the American Red Cross and the Daughters of the American Revo1u- ton. His trips out of Washington have been few.

The easy way, the pleasant way. is to use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets that quickly restore appetite and build up the worn-out body by the perfect as similation of. food.
 These little digestors are power ful, pleasant, and produce almost i'm m ediate digestion of any. meal If you will use them occasionally you will quickly learn what a. joy food really is. One cannot hope to help nature by eating food from which a weakened digestion cannot take the ingredients 1t needs.
 The only way is to put these in gredients in pure form into the
 body. Then when they are absorb7
 ed the system at once starts rebuild | ing and is enabled to soon perform its proper and perfect functions. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain the very essences most demanded and desired by the body to do it's work of taking nutrition from food As soon as the stomach is enabled to stop food decay and balance it's gastric juices, then raw stomach gass foul breath, catarrh, heartburn, bowel 1 trouble etc., disappear. The result 1 Is always the same This fact alone 1 is what has made Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the greatest dyspepsAa and stomach remedy ever sold They are on sale at every drug store and you
 may obtain a box anywhere Price 50 | cents

STATE PEACH CROP
 SPOILED BY FROST

Hartford, March 4J. F. Hale, the authority on peaches, declares that the Connecticut crop this year will be negligible quantity- Last year this state had more peaches than any oth- CT in the union. The trouble this time has been, of course, the low tempera- ture- As a rule trees on high places escape the worst cold, as that rolls down the hills, and the valleys have lower temperatures than the high lands
 However, this winter there. was one Tuesday when the thermometer was below zero and the wind was very high That did for the highla,nd trees A week or so ago there was severe cold in the Iowlands and the high places escaped. But, as they had been hit already, that made little differ ence. X,
 The net result of the two cold snaps is that one time the highland got it and the other time the; lowlande suffered and, therefore, both have been hit There may be enough fruit to eat, but the market supply will be lacking.

 Whereas, during the past year off cials of the Adams and American Ex press companies have stated that rate would be lowered February 1, 1914. and
 Whereas, instead of being lowered the local rates have been increased dTs and s4zssss&&<
 Whereas, there appears no necessity for such advance, and
 Whereas, the rates effected by ruI- ings of the interstate commerce com mission in the great majority of cases have been lowered, it is hereby
 Resolved: That the directors of the State Business Mems Association oa Connecticut protest against such ad vance of local rates made by the Adams Express Company and the American Express Company. uTlani- nlously appeal to the public utilities commission of Connecticut to- lower such local rates, so that in noscase they shall be higher than those in effect previous to February 1, provdd- ing the Adams and the American Ex- press companies refuse or fal to low CT such local rates within a reas9nablt time. 55 4s
