The strength of Rome lay not in the
time when Romans were extravaganza
" spending their millions in feasts and
games; when people were fiocking from
the country to the city; when Romans
were too lazy even to play their own
games, but hired gladiators not only to
play, but to die, for their amusement;
it lay not in the time when the young
Roman millionaires spent their time at
the baths and in feeding on nightin-
gales tongues and on oysters brought
in wet moss from the shores of Brit
ain; when $4,000 was paid for roses
at a feast, and when her citizen sol
diery was replaced by hirelings, but
in the time when the Roman farm
err was its citizen and statesman and
depended not upon the hired others,
but upon himself, for performing the
duties of the family and the state.
The entire world at the beginning of
the present war started to save money.
1t is curious fact that such a destruc-
tive process as war sometimes is a
benefit to a nation. 1t increases the to-
tai efficiency and it increases the total
saving. Let America be not too free
to cast criticisms upon our foreign
warning sister nations. 1t may be that

efficiency and the increased strength

No amount OF wealth viii replace
character. Wealth will never take the
place of personal righteousness, but
the characteristics of thrift and econ

that made New England, and that

Dragged About 1t.
Sam Clemens read more than any one
guessed. At night, propped up in bed
"a habit continued until his death--he
was likely to read until a late hour.
He enjoyed smoking at such times and
had made himself a pipe with a large
| bowl which stood on the floor and had
Turkish hubble bubble. He liked to
| fill the big bowl and smoke at ease
| through the entire evening. But some
times the pipe went out, which meant
| that he must strike match and lean
far over to apply it, just when he was
most comfortable. Sam Clemens never
liked unnecessary exertion. One night
when the pipe had gone out for the
second time he happened to hear the
young book clerk Brownell passing
up to his room on the top floor. Sam
called to him.
ED, come herew
Brownell poked his head in the door.
The two were great chums.
"What will you have. Sam?' he
asked.
"Come in, Ed. Henry's asleep, and
I'm in trouble. | want somebody to
light my pipe.
"Why don't you light it yourself"
Brownell asked.
81 would, only / knew you'd be along
in few minutes and would do it for
me-
Brownell scratched a match, stopped
down and applied it.
"What are you reading, Samr"
"Oh, nothing much-a so called funny
book. One of these days I'll write a
funnier book myself"
Brownell laughed.
"No, you won't, SAM" he said. you
are too lazy ever to write book"
Years later, in the course of lecture
which he delivered in Keokuk, Mark
Twain said that he supposed the most
untruthful man in the world lived
right there in Keokuk and that his
name was Ed Brownell.-Albert Bige-

this COUNTRY SOON
must FINANCE ITSELF
People Should Realize Thrift
at Home Is Necessary.

One hundred years ago the first saw
ings bank in the United States was es-
tablished. The advent of this institu-
ton came with the era of commercial
and industrial expansion. 1t came
when the population of the United
States was only 9500,000, and there
were but 246 banks in the country. By
| 1920 ten of these savings banks had
been established with $685. depositors
and aggregate deposits of $1,138,576.
Prosperity came, the people saved
and the deposits in these great reser-
i voirs of capital, which now number
/ 2,100, by leaps and bounds increased to
enormous proportions. To-day, with
our national wealth approXimating
$1S7, 000,000000 and almost one hun
bred millions of people in the country,
we have about 81, 700O00,000 in the
savings banks belonging to ten and Il
half million depositors. This may
seem an amazing sum of capital and
number of depositors, but when COM
parison is made with other countries
and balance is struck it is found the
United States is near the end of the
list in the percentage of savers to pop
ulation.
The possibilities for the greater pro-
motion of habits of thrift and saving
among people are indeed extraor-
binary. With remarkable opportuni-
ties in the United States for increas-
ing foreign trade; with bumper crops
in every section of the country; with
gold pouring into the Golfers Of the
banks; with every appearance of I'M
precedented future prosperity, the fact
is apt to be disregarded that the other
great commercial nations of the world
are involved in a war of frightful de-
struction and economic waste; that aft
err the war these nations will need
funds for reconstruction and the Unit
ed States will be called upon to sup
ply them: that for some time to come
this country will not be able to secure
capital, as in the past, from France
and Great Britain, for the purpose OF
on new enterprises. The
United States must finance itself.
No fear need be had for the imme- |
date future, but it is inevitable that |
the time is coming when this country |
must meet the test of financing prac- !
-ically the entire world. Preparations !
ire being made for defense in the I
event of war; preparations should also
De made for peace. Adequate credit
can be developed and per-
'ected, but it will assuredly require
sufficient amount of capital to main
ain properly and keep in good running
condition this credit machinery.
How is this capital going to be Sc
.ured? Through e4ucdt On; by calling
he attention of the people to the lack
If thrift in the country, and the bene-
icial results of practicing thrift;
through a systematic nationwide cam
,aign to promote thrift and saving. 1t
urely is to the interest of all citizens,
whether banker or business man, edi-
or or professional man, employer or
to be party to such move
