VACATION TOGS
BY Betty Brown

If you are going to leave your
trunk behind when you go vacation
ing, limit your wardrobe to a one
piece frOCk and top coat, and leave
your clothes worries at home. If the
dress is pussy willow in midnight
blue, and the coat sand color, or tan
in serge or lightweight cloth, you will
be fashiOnably as well as comforta-
bly, dressed. Vacation time, mind
you, is no time to let down in the
matter of clothes. Select your gown
and coat with this happy thought in
mind Don't be a dOwd just because
you are travelling.

Returns to the bureau from the
representative retail dealers in the
U. S., covering the principal staple
articles of food, show that as a whole
the retail price of food increased ap-
Proximately I per cent between Feb.
IS, 1916, and March IS, 1916.
Comparing March Of this year
with March four years ago-1912-|
and all Is of the articles of food in
Guided at that time were higher this
year than four years ago, with one

Comparing March this year with
March a year ago, Is articles, inClud-
ing all meats, show an increase, five
articles retained the same average
price and three articles only show
decrease; these latter being wheat,
flour, cOrnmeal and pTUnes.
Taking the 20 articles now inCIud-
ed in the bureaus fluctuations, the
price of food advanced a little more
than g per cent between March, 1915,
and March 1916; and on March IS,
1916, the average price was 5 per

Militia Won't Serve.

According to information made pub
lie by the war department. the presi-
dents call for the mobilization OF the
national guard of Texas, Arizona and
New Mexico has resulted in failure.
So many members of the guard have
refused to serve that. the war depart
ment officials say, 1t will require
months to mobilize any con-
siderable force of militia. OF the Sec
ond regiment. of Texas. alone. 116 men
have refused to join. the colors for
service along the boundary. 1t is fur
Their disclosed that the adjutant gem
erals of these three states had ten
days notice of the presidents purpose
10 call on the national guard to assist
in patrolllng the Mexican border, but
notwithstanding that fact they have
made comparatively little progress and
there is no prospect of these states
turning out anywhere near the paper
strength of their national guard or
CARNATIONS, or even anywhere near as
many as equipment has in the past
been provided for by the government.
In the estimation of the war depart
ment, this experience has shown the
folly Of relying on the national guard
as part of the nations first line of
defense, just as was commended by
Secretary Garrison, and rejected by
the president.

the end that this unpopularity may
be obviated until after the Novem-
Der election.
Juggling the figures does not, how
ever, produce revenue. as everyone
knows. And after the election the
people will be called upon to pay the
bill. Then, according to the present
program of the administration, there
Will be provided increases In taxes
sufficient to make good those which
are abolished pending the election.
This Is not, of course, an honorable
method OF dealing with the finances
OF tho government, or with the peo-
pie. But. then, honor is not n mat
ter of Importance to this admins
tration. 1t was not honorable to
swell the treasury balance by pad
ding the general fund" with sums
which did not belong there, but that
was what Secretary McAdoo did. as
has been pointed out in these columns
and his purpose to abolish unpopu-
lar taxes before the national election,
with the full knowledge that exces-
sivc taxes will have to be collected
later in order 10 make good the Dem
ocratlc deficit, is entirely typical OF
the methods which the present adj
ministratlon never hesitates to en-
ploy 1t Is a kind of politics which
Will not gain any votes from intelll-
gent voters.

Larger Postal Savings
Deposits viii Be Taken
As a Result Of an Important
Amendment to the Postal
Savings Act.

Larger postal savings deposits will
now be accepted at the Dostofiice. This
Is made possible by an important
amendment to the postal savings act
Just approved by President Wilson. A
POSTAL savings depositor may now have
an account amounting to $1,000 upon
which interes: will be paid. Formerly
$500 was the maximum amount he
could have 10 his credit. This enlarge
mont Of postal savings facilities will
he very gratifying to thousands OF de-
posters who have already reached the
old $500 limit and are anxious to en-
trust more OF their savings to Uncle
Sam.
Another feature OF the amendment
that will avoid further embarrassment
TO the public and to postal officials
is the doing away with the limit on
the amount that could be accepted
from deposltor monthly. Under the
old law only 500 could be deposited
in calendar month. The amendment
abo ishes this restriction. While the
postal savings system has already
proved signal success as is shown
by the fact that more than half-a-mil-
lion depositors have over eighty mil
lion dollars standing to their credit,
still it has fallen short of meeting the

When You Borrow Money.

In the course of human events II be-
comes necessary for most people to
borrow money. Business men who can
make ten per cent or more out of trad
Ing find 1t profitable to borrow in order
10 carry on business on larger scale,
discount their bills and carry complete
stocks. Others find it desirable at
times to borrow for various purposes.
and some find 1t necessary TO borrow
because they have either failed To save,
or have been unable to save AMI are
confronted with an exigency that re-
quircs money.
Should you at any time find yourself
in such condition, do not borrow
from your friends. go to your bank.
That is what banks are for. They live
by their loans. and no banker will re-
fuse loan that meets certain require
ments and is In his estimation good.
II is proposed in the next two or three
talks on banking to tell you what the
banker wants to know when you offer
him your note. Whether the loan is
large or small the same rules apply.
In the first place the banker will
expect you to be a depositor. Most
banks make 1t a rule to lend to only
those who are customers, and custom
ers mean depositors. If you favor the
banker with your account, giving him
a profit from the use of your money,
he will be glad to reciprocate and let
you use his money when you need it
and offer the proper security. The rule
Is well established to lend in the pro-
portion of not over five to one; that is,
II you keep balance of 500, the bank
or would lend you $500, if he thought
well OF your credit standing. The
greatest mistake business men make
is to keep little or no balance in the
bank and then expect the bank to
accommodate them with loans. .m.
Take an actual case that happened
recently within the experience OF the
writer of these talks. A business man
wanted note of 800 discounted to
meet his payroll. The banker knew
him. His moral standing was good.
In looking up the account his balance
was but fifty cents. Now what did
that indicate? Just this: That the
would-be borrower had trusted every
body until his capital was on his
books, here. there and everywhere,
and he was not collecting his bills. He
had no free money" to carry on his
business. He had no working capital.
He was strapped" The banker was
perfectly justified in asking the Dor
rover either to make better collec-
tons, or get his affairs in such shape
that when pay day came he would not
have to depend upon borrowed moeny
to pay his men
Nothing so hurts an application for
loan in n well managed bank as a
low average balance, and all good
bankers give heed TO this factor.
Therefore. as a starting point, do your
business through a bank, depositing
your receipts and making your pay
ments by check. and keep balance
large enough TO gain tho bankers
good will when he looks at his ledgers
to see how much of your own money
you have available when the needs OF
business require. Don't do all your
business on borrowed money, for II
the banker finds 1t out, he won't dis
count your note.
