TIE ESSENT|ALNESS
 0F THRIFT |S SHOWN
February Third the Opportunity for
 It's Application

The real idea behind the selection of one particular day ot the year. and electing it to be Thrift Day, is to focus the thought of our over one hundred million people upon action institutins real, lteral, practical ways and means for conserving the many wastes in living.
 The idea of thrift is one which all will agree is wholly; and more par ticularlN because of the present high cost of living. This is not so credit able, being offered under c0mpulsion of necessity, as would be the result of calm analysis, lf-arraisn- mcnt and self sentence to a strictcr observance of the law of elf-better- ment. Nevertheless, since the price of food has gone so high, the practic- ine of thrift has become very popular with many
 The one point where most consider alton is needed in starting thrift habit is in concentrating on those things which are admittedly open for improvement, but remain as a sort of promise to ourselves and are put of in their performance from time to time. This is Illustrated in the waste of time This applies. of course to idle. useless occasions which may or may not be gratifying in q sense, but result in nothing but a regret for the time involved
 This economy could he still further carried on with great effect wherein time is in, olved in the performance of onr duties. There is hardly a life but where there is much lost and repeated motion which could be elim mated tu decided advantage and an opportunity created for improvement in place If depletion. And right ncre il is q very good thing to con- slider, that conserving time k th same thing as lenghtcning life f not only makes life more enjoyable but fl adds 10 the time for the en- ioyment
 There are go many other things. little and pig which could be better adjusted and taken care of. the net result of which would be to conserve time. These arc mostly self-evident and do not require any elaborate teaching other than that which each of us now has--a good conscience. lf respect will be shown for the teacher. and tho lesson we'll learned. it is onlY matter of putting into action the practice.
 If man is wise. he is thrifty: and If thrifty. good and he benefits all other lives which in any way come within hla circle of influence The thrif' pfactiocd by him benefits ali This same spirit Of mutual good should proceed from each and the self culture would be thorough. And it does. for thrift is contagious
 lay which calls especial atten- ton to such an important matter as thrift can most assurcdly bc cele- hrated whole -heartedly The mission of Thrift Day is to mutgalize and make general trc seif-culture which eliminates improvidcnce. takes up lost motion and shorfens the distance be- tween points 4 progress.
