PHILLIPS INCREASE
 LEAD OVER RIVALS

New York, September 9.-Philadelphia increased it's lead in the National league pennant race today by taking two games from New York and Boston and Brooklyn again exchanged places. Brookyn's victory over the Braves shoves Boston back into third place and the Superbas regain second position.
 The Superbas, now three games be- hind Philadelphia. and the Braves, four full games behind the leaders, start west tomorrow. Both have proved them selves poor road teams and Philadelphia too, has played better baseball at home. The three will meet the same clubs on the western tour. Philadelphia has an- other game to play With the Giants to- morrow before beginning it's trip. The Superbas have the advantage over Bos- ton, for in addition to being a game ahead of the Braves. they will have to play four games less than either the Braves or the Phillies.
 Boston and Detroit retain their re- spective positions in the American league as the result of today's games, both teams having vanquished their op- ponents. The Red Sox still hold the lead by one and one-ha1f games, but Detroit will have to play only 21 games while the Red Sox's schedule calls for 26

TALKS ON THRIFT
Financial Preparedness

',rhe United States will have to go through long course of discipline before thrift is established as a national virtue to the same extent as it is In Great Britain" ."-The Toronto Mail and Empire
 The movement to improve our military preparedness is receiving national atten- ton at this time It is a matter of the utmost importance
 Another and somewhat similar prob lem which confronts the nation and its individual citizens today is the proper conservation of national and personal re- sources. It is admitted on every side by those who are in a position to know that just now is emphatically time for everybody to save as much as he can for the best interests of all convcerned.
 Various plans have been inaugurated to encourage saving. It is not only banks that are back of thes efforts. Tn various ways great many employers are en- couragng thrift on the part of their em- ployes and there is an increasing num- Der of voluntary thrift clubs" and in- vestment associations. One of the latest of these to come to our attention Is worthy of notice for the sake Of others who may be interested.
 This saving and investing organization is called the "Moody's Magazine Savings club" MT. A. w. Perrin. president of the Moody's Magazine and Book com pany, New York, says: There have been large number of these clubs formed and several of them have completed the first 10 months. have allotted the bonds and have stanted in on a second series.
 The certificate of membership reads as follows:
 This certifies that hat........................
 is a member of the Moody Magazine Savings club, No............ of ............ and that he has paid to the treasurer of the club the sum of.............. dollars the first of........... monthly payments for the purchase of one $1o0 bond (name of bond to be written in when pur- chased).
 Said bond to be selected by him. to be purchased by him and held by the treas- urer of the club in accordance with the conditions and regulations adopted there for. full understanding of which he hereby acknowledges.
 Signed .................... Signed .......... Member Treasurer. Thus it will be seen that the idea of the club Is to help It's members prepare savings and storing up financial ammu- hilton in the shape of good bonds. | This Is an excellent idea. but if anyone who reads this article is so situated that he cannot join such a club he can still capry out the principle on his own &C., count. Let him save in a sas.ngs ac- count and at the proper time withdraw
 some of his savings to put into good | bond, mortgage or other investment rec commended by his bankers.
 l This has been the simple, but sufficient plan of thousands who have solved the problem of financial preparedness. 1 T. D. MACGREGOR-
