Talks on Thrift


Eat, drink and be merry, for to-
morrow We de-" says some foolish
one, as quoted in the Good Book.
But" observes a wise man of the
present, "you flatter yourself--to-
morrow you will live, and that is
worse than dying"
The child lives in the present. The
boy wants things now. He has no
patience. He does not know what
tomorrow means. Time is no ele-
ment in his scheme of things. He
simply lives.
The man who is really happy is the
man who lives in the future-who
anticipates. Hope" says current
writer, is a much more dominant fac
tor in the joys of life than realiza-
ton" How many a good time you
have anticipating the good time that
didn't materialize!
The man or woman who never
takes thought Of the future, of
course, cannot look forward to the
future with any hope or anticipation.
The wise man says, "Look out for
tomorrow and today will look out for
ITSELF" The fool says "Have good
time today and let tomorrow worry
about ITSELF" The Biblical fool was
Esau, who sold out cheap. He want
ed something to eat quick and got it
for price. But what price!
The world is full of Esaus--men,
women and children who sell out
cheap-a years Indebtedness for an
hours qualification; days pay for
a few moments thrills; a weeks
wage for a days dissipation. There
is a law of compensation at work in
this old world and you will find out
that you pay for every foolish thing
you do.
The foolish one believes in now; he
scorns tomorrow. "We live but
once" says he, therefore let us live
merrily." That is just the reason we
ought to live sensibly-we live but
once, therefore, let us live WE'LL

blossom because it's so sweet" says
he. Wrong again. The fruit is
sweeter than the blossom and you
can eat fruit-the blossom you can't.
81 believe that other people should
save money, build homes, have bank
accounts and carry insurance." says
he. Wrong again. Their homes and
bank accounts won't help you when
your tomorrow comes. You have got
to help yourself today, if you want
your tomorrow to help you.
~ believe in luck" says he once
more-"and my luck is bad" Wrong
again. Your philosophy is bad, not
you luck. You believe the other fell
low should work and save? Show
him how. You believe that money

find out how much. You believe that

JAMES PRAISES WILSON
DECLARES PRESIDENTS POLICY
SAVES US TORN WAR.
Chairman Of Democratic National
Convention Asserts Party Has
Pursued Wise Policy Past
Four Years.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
st. Louis, Mo.-The achievements
Of the Wilson administration, in en-
acting beneficial legislation, and in
keeping the country at peace. without
sacrifice of national honor, were pro-
nounced epoch-making in American
history by Senator ollie M. James of
Kentucky in his address as perma-
nuent chairman of the Democratic
national convention.
During three years Of its national
control" said Senator James, "Democ-
racy has enacted into law more pro
gressive remedial legislation than the
nation has aver had written upon its
statute books since its birth. In for
mer national contests, in the last two
decades, our party came as a prophet.
Today we come with deeds, not
words; with performance, not prom.
Use. The Democratic party has kept
it's word with the American people;
we have made good!"
The chairman reviewed at length
the legislative record of the admins
tration and eulogized the President
for his direction of foreign affairs
The Democrats, he said, had enacted
a tariff law under which monopolies
were curbed, and unexampled pros
perity attained.
He declared President Wilson'S
Mexican policy, and his course in pro
tecting American rights against the
Entertainments of European belliger
ents had shown sll the world that the
President neither DULLES the veal
nor fears the strong"
In a concluding appeal for the tri
umph of patriotism above politics
Senator James said the denomination
of such a President in partisan con
vention ought not to be necessary ant
that to discredit him might palsy tn,
hand that could write the peace treat!
Of the world.
-Four years ago. they sneeringl.
called Woodrow Wilson the school
teacher" he said. To-day he is tn
world-teacher. His subject is the pre-
lection of American life and Amer
can rights under international law
And without orphaning a singh
American child, without widowing
single American mother, without fiji
ing a single gun he wrung from tn
most militant spirit that ever brood
ed above a battlefield an acknowledG
ment of American rights and al
agreement to American demands. H,
has elevated himself to that lofty bu
lowly eminence occupied by Georg
Washington, Abraham Lincoln an,

abused and bestowed Americans tn
