LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT
BY S. w. sTRAUs
PIsTdtss Ame,Icss Ssosr fS~ TAriN

many. The people of Canada do
not know what it means to save
money"
The duty of the Garner at present
is to save q larger proportion of his
wages than he has been saving in the
past. Saving money, of course, is
only one feature of thrift. Thrift Of
health, thrift of time, and thrift of
energy, are just as important as
thrift of money. One advantage of
thrift lies in the fact that there is
nothing too insignificant to be saved.
In Brooklyn, New York, we find q
striking example of the value of
thrift in little things. Tinfoil is col
lected by orphan asylu1ns and hos
pitfalls. This is sold from time to
time, 90 the little inmates in the or
phan asylums are given an occasional
delightful days outing from the pro-
ceeds, while the portion which goes
to the hospitals is used to buy beds
for their poor sick inhabitants. This
is . wonderful instance of the value
of thrift. It serves manifold pur-
pose. Tinfoil, such as that which
usually comes in cigarettes, candy, to.
bacco, tooth paste tubes, ETC., is ordi.
narily thrown away. The person who
saves it for these charitable purposes
thus becomes a. practicer Of thrift
and the orphans and hospital charges
receive a wonderful help. Also
the sum total of the country's waste
is, to a small degree. eliminated.
