A MOST UNIQUE PLAN
FOR SAVING MONEY
Has Been Inaugurated by
the State Bank of
Palatka.
The "Christmas Savings Club" Should
Appeal to Men and Women as
Well as Boys and Girls.

Cashier O'Connor of the State Bank
of Palatka has a most sensible plan
for saving money and which he is TAX
ing a half page advertisement in this
paper to announce to the people. 1t
should be read by every man and wo-
man as well as every boy and girl in
Palatka and Putnam county. Espe-
cially should it be read and pondered
by those of small means and to whom
total of from 500 to $45 at Christ
mas time would look as big as for
tune. The bulk of US are in that
class.
His plan is the formation of a
Christmas Savings Club. The club
will begin with the week of March
Sth, and will run 40 weeks. This
brings the club life up to short
time before Christmas, in ample time
to have snug sum laid by for the
holiday shopping. The weekly in
creasing savings are gathering moss
as the weeks pass. This moss is in
terest which accumulates and goes to
swell the actual amounts deposited.
| There are several plans of saving
open to club members. One is the
uniform class, where members save a
specified sum, say from 25, SO or rs
cents weekly.
Another plan is what is called the
progressive class; member starts by
depositing 2 or cents the first week
and increasing the amount at that ra-
tio each succeeding week. By this
plan the member who starts with 2
cents the first week will have $16.4O
at the end of the forty weeks; the
member who begins with cents will
have more than double. Starting in
the progressive class with five cents
will produce SAL at the end of the 40
weeks.
For the use of members of the club
the bank is going to use card sys-
tenn in which the record of payment is
made by punching the card. This
card is the depositors receipt, and
shows just how much he has paid in
up to given date. There is no
chance for error.
This is year for saving small
sums; it is the small sums that soon
make the large ones-sooner than one
can imagine possible. Aside from the
thought of needed money for Christ
mas, there is profit in playing this
club game that comes in the form of
teaching one to save" This is the
most profitable part of the game. The
State Bank of Palatka has started a
scheme which will prove a most valu-
able object lesson to the people in che
value of small savings.

Charge Made That Prohibition Cam

BY N. o. MESSENGER.

DENVER. Col. August 31.-Gov
| George A. Carlson. republican execu-
tive of Colorado. is ambitious to receive
the nomination of Vice President on
the republican ticket in 1915. II he
does. he will make prohibition the key
stone of his campaign whether II is In
the republican national platform or
not.
Gov. Carlson's friends are convinced
that neither Borah nor any other far
western man will be chosen for first
place on the republican national ticket.
and they are encouraged to demand
that second place be given to a west
erner and one who, moreover. will be
acceptable to the rank and file of the
progressives. In this category they
place their candidate.
Started as a Progressive.
Gov. Carlson was nominated to the
office which was the stepping stone to
the .governorship, the district attorney
ship, as progressive. He was nomi-
mated for governor as straight re-
publican, the progressives putting up
a candidate The governor was elected
by plurality larger than the total
VI NoleS cast 1OT MS progress
sive adversary, and 1t was claimed that
the progressives had returned to the
old party in large numbers.
The main contention of the governors
friends in behalf of his nomination for
the Vice Presidency is this: They say il
is quite unlikel ythat the republican ma
tional convention will put a prohibition
plank In its platform, although the
leaning of the party in many states
is expected to be toward prohibition
With Gov. Carlson's record an open
and ardent advocacy of prohibition, his
friends claim he VIII attract the anti
saloon element to the republican national
ticket. Furthermore, he is a Scandina-
Wan, and it is urged for him that he
can draw goodly foreign vote. In
short time an active campaign is to be
started for his boom, and when some one
asks you who is this Carlson Of Colo
rado?" you viii be able to tell all about
him You need not be surprised If he
should make quite a stir in the political
field-this young Lochinvar from out OF
