TALKS ON THRIFT. EARLY LESSONS IN THRIFT.
''The lessons of thrift and eco-

The lessons of thrift and eco-
 nomy are capital to the child
 ren of poor parents. .'-Thiry.
 Those who object to school savings banks, it is safe to say, have not looked thoroughly into the workings of these splendid agencies of thrift.
 One objection raised sometimes is that poor children are mortified by the smallness of their savings as com- pared with those of the children of the Well-to-do. This has little weight because it is the children of the poor who are the largest patrons of the school banks.
 Every individual has some hard knocks coming to him in the course of his life. The sooner the child learns to save money the better will be his chance for success when he begins to work for living. The younger he learns the lesson of thrift .tne better his start.
 In Duluth, Minn., the school say ings system is success. One of the banks placed in the hands of each pupil a booklet, entitled "How Fortunes Begin and How They Crow It is textbook on thrift, and un- doubtedly it will inspire the ambitions of many boys and girls in way that will make for their lasting good.
 Last spring the first public school savings bank in Chicago opened at the Wicker park school with hund- red depositors.
 At the start of banking hou
 o score of youngsters stood in line in order to deposit their marble and candy allowance in the care of their fellow pupils.
 Thirteen-year-old Frank Koraleskl son of the county assessor, who had ben appointed cashier, was kept busy taking the pennies, nickles and dimes handed to him " the boys and girls of the seventh and eighth grades of the school.
 "How much interest do l get?' old miss of the seventh grade as she handed in two nickles and fourteen pennies and told her name to Milton Pholer, the clerk.
 Same as any regular bank" was the answer, When you get five dol. lars we put it into big bank and yor get 15 cents more at the end of the year."
 Miss Clara NJ. Utter, teacher of tho eighth grade, is in charge of the banl l assisted by Principal Fred Smith. Int | bank has received the approval O Mrs. Ella Flagg Young superinten dent of schools, and the Board O Education of Chicago, and at thi
 writing twenty other school in tha l city have installed hanks. | The work of installation is il charge of J. R. Novel, Presiden l North West State Bank and Vic' | President Of the Saving Bank Section l American Bankers association, fo l Illinois. which organization IS ell i couraging the installation of tn school savings system throughout th
 country, and Mr. Noel is in receipt o
 applications from fourteen additiona
 schools which desire to install bank this fall.

In view of the fact that Pine Bluff is one of the greatest cotton centers in the South it is peculiarly appro- priate that cotton should be in evil dence everywhere.

BATES SAYS "BRAFRALGO"
90 DEGREES TO WINDWARD.
Didn't Ask Before But Has Since
Sought Advice on Candidature.

M. A. Bates, editor Of the Parma
Herald and candidate for Congress,
calls "Brafralgo" down for stating
that he had to ask the consent of
Mr.. John f. Nugent before announc-
ing his candidature. We give below
Mr.. Bates remarks, knowing that
"Brafralgo" will be pleased to know
the facts in the case and also because
The Tribune wishes to do full justice
to Mr. Bates. Mr.. Bates says:
"Brafralgo," in the Caldwell Tribune
writes entertainingly of political CON
dltions, but occasionally gets a little
bit mixed. He dates his letters from
BOISE, and that may be the wherefore
Anent our candidacy he says in his
latest pipe dream, Even a Democrat
so long tried and true as Mark Bates,
hrst sought the consent of John MI
gent before he dared announce his
ambition.
Brat is about 90 degrees off there.
The only person whose consent we
sought was our wife, and we have
sneaking idea that she gave it simply
because she thought we would 90 and
do 1t anyway. 1t is true that since
our announcement we have talked
with Mr. Nugent, and also Messrs.
Cruzen, Governor Haines, Senator
Baldridge, and BRAT" and some few
others about our candidacy, and have
also conferred with Congressman
Smith about the mustache industry,
but we haven't hustled any on the
consent business.
but there is no reason why we
should not, and every reason why we
should consult with Mr.. Nugent. He
is one Of the most prominent Demo-
Gratis of the state, and has been our
personal friend for years. 1t is true
that IN the settlement oi intra-partv
matters we have worked together at
times, and on opposite sides at 9th
ers; but by the same token, that can
be said of every other democrat in
the state, and we are going to do our
best to get the consent of all before
the campaign ends.
