LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT
BY S. w. sTRAUs
PrtHdrnf Antritan SSGty for 7Hria

Children are the greatest destroy
ers OF paper, a habit encouraged
in some homes to keep the child
occupied, which clings to it in
schooldays and often in later life
in the business world.
Among the materials essential to
the paper industry which central Eu-
rope has been supplying are rags, and
in 1913, when prices ranged from 2
cents to cents pound, the import,
OF rags amounted to over two hun
dred miSon pounds, or $2,9077O5.
These figures will give some idea OF
our wastefulness when we consider
the quantity of rags thrown away
every day, with the result that we
have to import them from Europe.
Ono Of the recent shining examples
OF thrift is Patrick Muldoon of Phil
adelphia. For thirty-fve years Pat
rick Muldoon was employed around a
hospital and at no time during that
thlrty-fiye years did his wages exceed
$50 month. Part of tho time he
received less than $50 month. Yet
the other day when he decided to re-
tire and take the rest he had earned.
he had $500 to his credit. He re,
marked that he thought that sum suf-
fcient for his old age and added with
satisfaction, 81 haven't fooled much
away" He began to save from his
small salary in his young manhood,
so that in his old age his savings
would take care OF him. He did not
live for the pleasures of the day, but
for the independence of the future,
and his old age is sweet with the
memories OF prudent past.
