THRIFT DAY.
It's One of the New Days
Which is Coming in.

Thrift Day, February 3rd, is uni
que as holiday, in that it's proper
observance is a vastly different and
far more beneficial one to the indivi-
dual than the usual celebration of the
average holiday. On this day the even
tenor of things goes on; business is
developed; and financial institutions
remain open to do their share in the
celebration. There is no cessation of
progressive activities familiar to most
holidays, and which frequently result
in reckless waste Of both time and
money.
Another feature is that it is the
only holiday not confined to any race
religion or class. In its final develop
ment it is neither national, sectional,
religional or factional, but can be cele
brated by all humanity, to the ulti-
mate and lasting benefit of individu-
ais, communities, nations and the
world.
The celebration of Thrift Day lies
in the faithful performance by each
individual of some thrifty action on
that day. The very simplicity of the
idea will go long way towards its
successful development, and this de-
velopment will mean mighty step
forward to better conditions for every
body
For this reason, leaders in all fields
of activity, particularly financial in
stitutions, are cooperating to make
, memorable the first annual obser-
vance of Thrift Day this year, so that
! there will be a fitting standard to be
followed on the Thrift Days to come

RAILROADS SHOULD
PAY FOR INJURIES

Washington, June 17--Congress has
for it's consideration bill introduced
in the house by Representative Tag
CART of Kansas providing for in
creased liability of railroads when en-
ployees are killed or injured while on
duty.
The proposed measure would de-
clare void all agreements between
railroads and their employees absolv-
ing the former from liability for in
jury or death incurred in the line of
duty, which have been made on the
ground that in accepting the employ
ment the employee agreed to take the
attendant risk.
Contributory negligence by an en-
ploye who is injured or killed would
not, by the Taggart bill, relieve the
railroad from responsibility. The
liability would be reduced, however,
in proportion to the negligence of the
employee.
