LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT

cry person in Canada would save ten
cents. a day. there would be a total
of $250,0OO0O0 saved in a year.
Some people cannot save ten cents
day but almost every one can saws
a little by doing that in personal
spending which is done in any well
condueted business-putting stop
to waste.
All things are harder for the adult
to learn than for the child, even
economy. The parents, therefore
should teach economy to the child.
George Washington said, Economy
makes happy homes and souQd ma
tions. Instill it deep" Children
should be taught to be economical in
the matter OF what they eat. They
will thus be taught to save theiE
health. They should be taught to
economic in the matter Of spending
the uselessness and perishableness.
.of most of the things they would like,
to buy, the advantages Of a savings
account and the feeling Of security It'll
brings. Children thus taught make,
good citizens-frugal, clear-headed
and steady.
The members Of the Congregations
.al Church in Fort Dodge, Iowa, were
probably taught economy in their
youth and were teaching it in turn
to their children for when they de-
cdcd to build new $4,000 church
they formed the nucleus of their fund
by placing barrels on the street COR
Iners and requesting residents to de-
posit junk, rags, old iron, rubbers and
bottles-in them. One Sunday

science OF wasting nothing. There
was a time, he said, when the parts
OF cattle were wasted and the health
of the city injured by the refuse
But later, by adopting the best
known methods, it was found that
nothing need be wasted and buttons,
glue, fertilizer and other things are
now made from what was formerly
waste material. This Is the very es-
sence of thrift, and should and could
be practiced in every business office
and every home. 1t makes the saw
ing Of money possible.
Mr.. Armour said he considered the
turning point in his career the time
he began to save the money he earned
in the gold fields. There will be a
turning point in the career of every
one when he begins to save, though
it be but a nickel or a dime a day.

JUST AS AN ILLUSTRATION

While taxpayers are doing considerable talking about
the increasing taxes it safely be stated that there
will be no reduction in the cost Of running the state,
counties or cities until the people make up their minds to
do without things they demand or at least permit
A dispatch Saturday from PendetOn says William LI
Finley state biologist will arrive next week to take PIC
lures of wild animals in eastern Oregon and washington
for the Oregon State fish and game commission. t. r.
Ayer of the department Of biological survey, who will
cooperate with Mr. Finley in the work. has had his force
of 60 men locating dens of coyotes porcupnes badgers
and bears to enable Mr. Finley to get rsthand pictures
of these animals.
AS matter of natural history it is well enough to
have these pictures available It, like hundreds of other
things is right enough if the people want that KIND OF
thing but it costs something to have 6O men huntlng
badper holes and getting the animals ready to have their
pictures "took" and it also costs to have the pictures
printed and we'll after that it will cost something to DIS
tribute them or do whatever the commission intends
with them.
It is not great expense triGle in fact but it illus
trates the fact that public money is much more easily and
pleasantly spent than provided for the spending
While on the subject it might be added that the eX-
pense of taking of protecting the game is un-
necessarily expensive The law provides special officers
for this purpose when it could just as well be turned over
to the peace officers of the county.
There are all kinds Of useless commissions who Go
nothing practical except draw their salaries and make
reports which reads but which cost money just
the same
We have education in the saddle and riding heaven
knows whittier.
We have the "good roads" bug fully developed and
feeding on public money with an Unsuitable appetite
These two features the great aXeaters, by the side
of which the others are trlfllng
The question is do the people who pay the taxes want
to get without these hngs If they do they can do so
by their votes If they do not there use finding fault
with the public officers who are expendng the money as
the people desire.
Taking the pictures of few wild animals will not
bankrupt the state neither will hundreds of other 1fes
of like character but in the aggregate they make snug
sum-
The latest proposal is to have committee at the egs
lature to examine all bills and point out to the legislators
those it should pass and those it should kill Now the
members of that committee might be wiser than the
legislators and so another committee would be required
to advise and guide it, and this still another and so on to
the end of the chapter 1t would be simpler to elect the
committee to the legislature and do away with the extra
expense of having two bodies.
