SYSTEM SAVINGS BANK IS
STARTED THIS WEEK
Public Schools Will Encourage Habits
of Thrift.

A good education consists largely
OF correct habits of thought and
action. 1t is the purpose of the system
Savings Bank in the schools Of this
city, to teach the pupils habits of eco
nomy, saving and thrift. 1t is not the
purpose OF the plan to teach the hoard
ing OF money, but on the other hand,
to teach wise saving as we'll as wise
spending. Economy of the highest
sort consists in knowing how to spend
what is necessary without squander-
ing, and the result is credit. The
forming of these habits in youth will
mean success in later life.
1t is the wish of the Caldwell
schools to cooperate with the home to
accomplish these ends. This is a mat
ter, which in later years, will be a
most valuable recommendation to the
pupil, in the business world.
No Money Deposited at Schools.
This system does not provide for
money being deposited at the school
buildings A card will be given the
pupil by the teacher which introduces
him to the bank named thereon. The
student may then present the card
with ten cents at the bank and he is
given a System Bank" in which he
saves his money till $l.00 has accumu-
lated. He then takes the whole to the
banker who opens the savings bank
and credits the pupil with the amount
saved. He then records it upon the
face of the bank in the space provided
The student should never take the
bank to the school room, bat on his
| own record card he makes a state
ment of each deposit and this he takes
to his teacher who in turn makes a
record of it.
To Teach Lessons in Thrift.
Once each week the teachers in
| each room will conduct a lesson or
thrift, and interesting talks on this
| subject will be given from time to
time.
The teachers will report to the
Principal of their building the amount
saved by their rooms. so that RECORD
| TRlB-29 etaoimhnmhnhr
will be kept of the amount saved by
| those enrolled in each buildino.s The
| Superintendent will therefore have {
report of the total saved in the cit,
by the children each month. Tn,
rooms and buildings having the larg
est percent of saving will receive spe
cial recognition. -
| Parents are urgently requested t.
give their best cooperation to this yer,
worthy movement.

Representative Bailey of Pennsyl-
vania, thick-and-thin supporter of
Bryan and himself fighter from
Fightville, makes no attempt to min
imize the gravity of the situation in
the Democratic party which has been
brought on by Wilson's desertion-as
the Bryan men term it-of the sacred
cause of peace. Mr.. Bailey expects
Bryan to trail Wilson's Swing
around the circle" and to emphasize
the difficulties which have arised be-
tween the president and the men who
made him; and he looks for serious
ruptures in the Democratic party as a
result of the Wilson-Bryan contro-
versy. "The real trouble" he says,
will come when Congress undertakes
the task of providing the revenues
necessary for paying the expense of
this military program. Then there
will be more hell around this Capitol
than you have ever seen here"
Mr.. Bailey's language is not what
one would expect to drip from the lips
of an apostle of peace, but the &C
curacy of his prediction cannot be
questioned. We cannot build a feet
and increase the army with the myth
ical balances which Secretary McAdoo
and his pen has written into the daily
Treasury Statement. The hard-heart-
ed shipbuilders and ammunition max
ers will demand real money for their
goods; and even if the ships are built
in government navy yards it will take
something beside stage money to pay
the bills. Mr.. Bailey can easily for.
see hell at the Capitol, but nobody
can forsee money in the treasury.

LISTEN, DAUGHTER.

l gather from little things which I
have heard from time to time that
you and your mother are beginning
to worry bit because none of the nice
young fellers who call on you come
back mbore than once or twice.
Your mother ought to know the rea-
son and l think it is about time for
you to know, too. 1t isn't because
the young men don't like you, honey,
almost any nice young man would do
that It's because they find out, after
a short acquaintance, that you know
more about clothes than clothes-lines;
that you know how to use powder
puff but know nothing about how to
build cream puff; that you know how
to paint and fire china but never tried
your hand on painting the kitchen
Dashboard nor attempted to bake a
loaf of bread; that Mrs. Vernon Castle
can teach you nothing of her art but
that you never heard of Mrs. Rorer
that you know more about how to
change a tire than how to broil a
steak; that you are never too tired to
play golf or tennis but that a ten
minute session at the dish pan would
weary you to prostration, and that
while you can play "Humoresque" and
"The End of a Perfect Day" on the
piano you could not perform "The
Song of Shirt" at sewing machine
recital to save your pure white soul
from peridition. But cheer up, honey
A two months course at the Old

under the tutelage of dear old Prof
Mother, P. D. G., will give you ar
education which will be the means Of

undergo privations like this and en-
dure sacrifice in the presence of such
magniflcence as we enjoy. Something
needs fixing.
The Hired Man is glad that Cald-

Some folks don't understand what
clinic" is. and SO little explanation
is needed. This clinic of Caldwell ply
sicians means they have opened
school where sick people (may be
brought between seven and eight each
evening and there get most thorough
examination, free, and whatever addi-
tional treatment they need thereafter,

ing this hour. This is the precise way
the clinic will work; some one has, for
example, little girl that it not getting

the doctor bill that is sure to follow.
They take their little girl to the clinic
and there in the presence of all who
have come that night, her case is ex-
amined. explained to the people pres
ent, treatment is prescribed. profess
sional advice is given, free. and sug-
gestions offered to all. 1t is a school,
where diseases and symptoms are dis
cussed and discovered. 1t is a class
where the physicians undertake to
keep people from getting sick Or
course the Hired Man does not sup
pose that Cole Miller Kaley intend to
follow-up free. every case that makes a
visit tothis clinic. unless the case re-
turns at the hour named. These doc
tors are in the habit of doing so much
work free just because they have
hearts, that the clinical feature is that
which might have been expected. The
Hired Man knows of no other ply
sicians' clinic in the state, but can see
now how others will follow the SPLEEN

1t will not be overlooked that the
first speech in Congress against the
Presidents preparedness program
came, not from a political opponent,
but from veteran Democratic re-
preventative. General Sherwood of
Ohio. Gen. Sherwood's language was
vigorous and unmistakable. When a
responsible legislator of the Presi-
dents own party declares a presiden-
tial suggestion to be idiotic and re-
ceives evidences of warm approval
from a large contingent OF his fellow
partisans. it becomes very plain that
that particular suggestion is in leo-
pardy. And so. in truth. it is. The
Wilson plan of preparedness. half.
hearted and ineffective as it is, can,
not be jammed through nor jolliet
through.

Select Your
Own Employees

If you have need of another
worker, OF any sort, make up your
mind to use your own judgment
of people in selecting some one
for the job.
You'll do better than you would
do if you hired some one because
some one else urged you to. Most
of the inefficient work-folks are
foisted on employers by friends
and acquaintance. Most of the
efficient ones are selected from
among applicants who answer ads.

Congressman Henry of Texas is a
candidate for the senate, and he an
nounces his intention of leaving
Washington in the spring to go home
to attend to his campaign. We hope
no Republican will pair with him. The
Democratic margin in the house is so
slender that few men like Henry
would give control to the Republicans.
Next fall will be early enough for
campaigning. Meantime there is pub
lie business to be looked after. If
the Democrats don't want to stay and
attend to it, the Republicans should be
right there on the Job.
Having broken every promise in the
Baltimore platform the Democrats
have gone outside the record, and
their promise of a national budget is
not to be redeemed. The committee
appointed last year by the Democratic
caucus of the House. which has been
working on plan ever since, has con-
fessed its inability to suggest any
business-like plan which would have
any chance of being adopted. The
reason given is the opposition to any
surrender of their powers by the
chairman of the half dozen commit
tees of the House which handle APP
preparation bills. AS there will be no
Democratic chairman of committees
in the next Congress, that reason will
not exist, and the budget system,
which is a business-like. and there
fore Republican idea, will undoubt-
eddy be adopted.
