BRIERE Will BE
CANDIDATE

In an interview with a Reporter
representative this afternoon, Charles
E. Briere said that he had consented
to respond to the call of his friends
that he should become candidate
for Mayor.
Mr.. Briere will make formal an
ouncement some time next week.
Mr.. Briere's statement that he
would become a candidate does not
come as a surprise as there were many
people in the city who have positively
insisted that he make the run. With
his record for efficiency as district
attorney and his success as an attorn-
ey and business man back of him, his
friendship among all classes and his
general popularity he will make a
candidate that will be hard for any
to beat.

Mr.. Hardwood urged that counties
proceed with road building even at a

meant the borrowing of money to do
it. Wisconsin has $4,000 miles of
country roads. Of this number only
$4,000 are now improved with some

HABIT AND
THRIFT DAY
Feb. 3rd to Be Observed Annually In
Developing Thrifty Habits.

Feb. 3rd to Be Observed Annually In
Developing Thrifty Habits.
There is quite significance in that
truth so often expressed, eve are all
creatures of habit" The matter of
concern to the Individual is not one of
eliminating habit, but rather the recog
milton of habit values and the inten-
sive cultivation of those which stand
for greater progress and broader de-
velopment.
The establishment of Thrift Day is
designed to direct the attention of the
individual to every habit that could
in the least wise be connected with
waste, which also includes unproduc-
tive spending.
Thrift Day in no wise is designed as
an observance for miserliness, niggard
Illness or penuriousness. The fuller
meaning of thrift and frugality is yet
to become well known and understood
by the people of our country, and can
not in any way be COMPOUNDED with
those habits represented by their OPP
posites
Many people who realize that the
thrift habit is sound foundation for
fortune lose sight of the fact that it
is also an important factor in char
acter building. 1t is because this lat
ter is so that the promoters of thrift
in this country are devoting such earn
est efforts to institute the subject of
thrift into our schools with the same
degree of enthusiasm and system as
are used in the teaching of other vital
subjects.
All students of American economics
have long recognized the need for a
hearty concerted effort on the part of
all in our country to eliminate the
many habits of extravaganza into
which we have carelessly or indiffer-
emily fallen, and for our future indi-
vidual and national welfare practice
conservation in the management of our
MAUI al 1CoOuISSo anu IlOuGS
of living.
+ The thrift habit ensues as the result
of a certain desirable attitude Of mind
and an understanding of the value of
money and therefore of it's proper use,
for, to quote the words of that great
American teacher and preacher of
thrift, Benjamin Franklin, "The use Of
money is all the advantage there is in
having money"
The earning power of America at
the beginning of 1916 is very high, and
the value and permanence Of the in
creased and increasing prosperity will
be exactly in proportion to the wise use
made of it. AS the Americans better
realize what thrift means to them they
will not only practice it themselves to
greater extent than heretofore, but
insist that it become a part of the
lives of their children to be taught
them just as personal and moral clean
Illness is now taught.
One good use to which money can be
put on Thrift Day is the opening of or
adding to a savings account in the
Bank It will provide for a rainy day.
