ONE DAY is BETTER THAN NONE

bright and early next Thursday morn
IL Ing every Philadelphia is expected to
wake up with the determination to save
something. 1t will be Thrift Day.
1t does not matter what is saved so long as
the saving is effected. The small boy may
begin by getting dressed for breakfast more
quickly than usual and thus save a little
time, II he should discover that he had
more time for play and get into the habit
of speeding up in the morning he might find
when he gets to be a man that he has more
time to work.
The mother may use half a spoonful less
sugar to sweeten her coffee and then COM
pute how much she would save in a year if
she continued TO be so economical. If she
has mastered short division she win discover
that It would be 1929 spoonfuls in ordinary
years and 1SS in leap year.
The father may go to business without
smoking his cigar and plan to reduce his
allowance by 365 a year. which at the rate
of cents apiece is per cent. interest on
1856.
And the daughter may resolve TO cut down
her expenditures on caramels and face
powder
It is not necessary TO suggest any further
ways to save. There are few persons
who could not put a tidy sum in the
bank each year il they set about il. Few,
however who begin to practice thrift next
Thursday FOR the first time will hold out
until Friday. Those who do and keep it up
even on every Friday viii be surprised TO
discover how rapidly their savings win ac-
cumulate and may get into the fixed habit Of
making their money work Tor them to such
good purpose that they can retire al 90 On

EMMA GOLDMAN
or Of Epening Ledger:

To the Editor Of Evenin1 Ledger:
Sir-In it's article reporting Emma Goldman's
lecture Tuesday ON the misconceptions of
Free Love-" the EVENING LEDGER deserves to
be heartily applauded for raising itself above
the low standard of Yeracity followed by most
newspapers in covering Miss Goldman's lee
lures. Philadelphia should congratulate itself
upon having newspaper that is unafTaid to
truthfully report the lectures OF woman who
Is so sedulously misquoted.
Emma Goldman is beyond doubt one of
Americas most brilliant women, but as the
chief exponent in this country OF a philosophy
that is militanty adverse 10 most OF our ac-
cepted doctrines Of life she has always been
subject TO malicious campaign OF libel Were
II not for the antipathy that anarehism holds
for law based force or violence newspapers
throughout the country would in all probability
have long ago been forced TO stop this un-
called for method OF opposition.
1t would be well for the community II all its
newspapers would meet the high standard OF
Journalism which has been set by the EVENING
LEDGER. And n. because Of economic or social
policies. they find themselves unable to truth
fully report a radical address or lecture lei
them follow only the only alternative Of which
this standard permits make no report az an.

Dear T. D.--As the S. p U. C. (Soclety for
PREVENTION OF Useless Giving), operates only
around Christmas time, why not let IL get buqy

Useless Ginks? Their first job might be to
VISIT haberdasheries and inject rough on rats
into the persons behind the counters who will

them out of ones hands, and after wrapping

Before the Doctor Comes"

Dear Sir-Can you diagnose these symptoms?
a soaring flame lights my very brain,
My pulse beats hard and fast;
| long for the of the cooling breeze
or the sprIngtmes that have passed.
And the icy breath that comes with death
In the shadow of fir and pine,
But adds to the pain of the mortal flame
Whose fingers clutch my spine
can't figure out what it's all about
I'm either in love- or I'm sick;
I've known loves ways in my youthful days
D'ya think I'm getting the grip?
Yours. in distress, 10.
Your symptoms indicate a very serious
condition. Your attempts to rhyme flame"
with brain and again with pain" might
be merely an acute lapsus auriculae, but
"sick' and "grip"-O! my poor. dear fellow,
nothing but steady diet OF prose will save
you.

tributed $4,000 to the young women who
stood on the street corners with their collec-

New York, and Chicago raised between

house At 20 he was graduated from the
University of Illinois After completing his
course in the Union College of Law he went
to Hyde Park and married and opened law
office When Hyde Park was adopted by
Chicago, Mann became it's first representa-
tive on the Chicago Board of Aldermen. In
dustry and sociability won him reputation
in the community and he was soon sent to
Congress. That was in 1897 Mann's self
written biography in the Congressional Di-
rectory is perhaps the briefest in the book:
James r. Mann, Republican, of Chicago,
born in 1856: was elected to the Fifty
fifth and each succeeding Congress-"
Never Caught Mapping
Congressman Mann's personality has not
appealed to the imagination of the country.
He is not one of the got-famous-quick per-
sonages but, as a national figure, the product
of the process of hustle and attention to de-

Lodge and Root. Mann is about the most
careful attender to details that Congress has

seat in the House when the House is in ses-
sion. Fewer absence marks have been
chalked up against him than against any
other Congressman in the last quarter of a

whether on the stage or in Congress. Straight
