The American people need good deal of pr

have any clear idea of the Of accumulated

economic fact that all additions to the actual accu

ground out of the water, out of the air. and must
be put shape to be used and placed where they
be used.
The only way this nation can ever achieve financial
and economic independence is to adopt habits Of thrift;
to save and lay by a little of each days and each
weeks income. This, in the last analysis, really
amounts to saving out little Of actual product

But the trouble is, too many people fail to apply
such reasoning personally to their private affairs
There is in trying to separate national prob

The national wealth, the national capital made up

each individual, young and old, merely to build up

but help to build up the aggregate Of national capital

Greatest Need Is Thrift.
Is the United States going TO be able
