Begin to Save Early

?. P. Claxton, United States commissioner of
education an energetic advocate of Thrift, COM
menting on the necessity of beginning to save
early has recently made the following observa-
lions which we print as an incentive to old and
young alike:
tIt seems to me that our need for learning
how to manage money is not only greater than
that of any other country but it represents about
the gravest crisis that any country ever faced.
eve are almost incredibly rich. A very
large part of our wealth has come to recently,
but we must remember that its foundations were
laid three or four generations ago by our fore
fathers, who through necessity acquired habits
of industry and Thrift.
eff we haven't already done so, we are in the
way of acquiring habits of recklessness and
waste which are bound to lead to poverty and
grief for many of our people.
ut is even more important it seems to me,
that our young people should learn to save on
account of the moral effect on them personally.
What every youngster must know is that the in
dividual requires food, clothing, shelter,
Of transportation, and some share in the things
that appeal to the higher life.
"Now, some one has got to pay for these
either the one who receives them Or another. It
must be understood that to receive these essen
tials from some one else is to become a parasite.
1--WE want to impress upon the children few
very simple facts about Thrift, such as that saw
ing leads to independence and self-support; that
there is real satisfaction in self-support; that
saving means the sort of sef-denial which leads
to sef-control that his habit of self-control is
essential to the saving which must precede the
founding of any sort of profitable business; that
it is patriotic duty to encourage habits of saw
ing and Thrift"

GOT YOUR 1924,
PER CAPITA WEALTH
FOR wayne COUNTY?

There are 256,000 acres Of land in
Wayne county The population of the
county including cities is 43,757 &C
cording to the last United States cen
sus. This makes SIS acres of land for
each citizen.
The total assessed valuation of the
county according to the abstract for
1916 taxes payable in 1917 is $37, 237.
O93. This makes an assessed valua-
ton of $3.50 for each resident of the
county.
1t is conservatively estimated that
the total assessed valuation of the
county represents less than fifty per
cent. of the real value of assessable
property Richmond property is as
sessed at sixty per cent. OF its actual
value and rural property is assessed
at thirty-five percent of its real value.
Besides this there are millions OF
dollars of non-taxable bonds owned by
local people There is also much Sc,
ouestered taxable property due to the
lax and out-of-date tax laws of the
state.
Considering all these, it was esti-
mated by persons acquainted with
books in the auditors and treasurer's
office that the total wealth of Wayne
county citizens is more than 100000
600. This makes the average per cap
ita wealth of the county $2,2S4. This is
about the average for the United
States. The combined wealth of the
1fO,O0O,00O people of the United States
including Alaska is estimated at $780,

Shut Off the Current

Prehistoric man feared fire. The flash of
lightning, the eruption of the volcano, the forest
holocaust filled his soul with terror After he
had learned to make fire contribute to his COM
fort, man still stood in awe of it's ravages when
uncontrolled and unchecked it destroyed the huts
ne had made and the utensils he had laboriously
fashioned.
Modern man has lost this terror for fire. He
has gone to the other extreme. He plays with it.
Lighted matches are discarded into waste bask-
cts or thrown recklessly near combustibles.
Smoldering ashes are dumped in close proximi-
ty to oils. Even children play with fire as if no
danger lurked in conflagration.
campaign of education had to be started to
teach man to fear fire as his forbears did. Fire
prevention days, cleanup days. safety device slo-
gans are manifestations of the effort.
With the multiplication of inventions that
provide comforts for our homes has come an
increasingly large number of fire hazards.
There is hardly home in Richmond that is
not provided with an electric device that saves
time and labor. You will find coasters, electric
pads, curling irons, cigar lighters, plate warmers,
electric sterilizers and heaters. But the most
common device is the ELECTRIC PRESSING
IRON.
Hardly home in which the electric pressing
iron has not superseded the old FLAT IRON.
Mothers and sisters no longer toll and sweat over
an ironing board, swinging heavy piece Of iron,
carrying it to and from hot range. The electric
pressing iron has taken rs per cent of the toll
out of this piece of house work.
Every electric pressing iron in Richmond is a
fire hazard, if it is not handled intelligently.
John Wanamaker, the merchant prince of
America, suffered the loss of his palatial home
in Philadelphia, because negligent servant for
got to turn off the current in an electric press
ing iron.
The use of this device invites abuse. The busy
housewife, interrupted in her work by the door
bell forgets to turn off the current in her electric
iron. She chats with her neighbor in an adjoin-
ing ROOM Meanwhile the iron is becoming over
heated, sets fire to combustble material on the
iron board or near it, the fire department is
called and either her husband or the insurance
company pays for the damage.
One hundred fires day originate in over
heated electric devices used in homes in the
