AMERICANS ARE
 SPENDTHRIFTS
After the War Is When It Will Be a Case of Devil Take the
 Hinder Fellow

After tho war will come a long cru of rebuilding and readiustmcnt. The nations that are fighting today will bind up their wounds and will go forth Co further conqucsts of shrapncl and bayonots, but of gold" This declaration is made by | S. W. Strauss, president Of the Amer lean Society for Thrift, in the cur rent issue of Che Thrift Magazine.
 "It will be a fight for business the world around and each nation win succeed in exact proportion Co Inc individual efficiency Of its citi- zcns Therefore, it stands us well in hand today Go look to our future to see if we are adequately equip ped for this great era Of business rivalry.
 After the war, we shall have a great merchant marine and We shall be i'm a stronger financial position than any nation now at war. In many regards, VIC shall have a tre- mendous advantage over an rivals.
 But when it comes to the matter Of individual thrift, we shall be at a disadvantage.
 "Amcrica's record in an matters pertaining to individual thrift has been disgraccful. We have been known throughout the world as a nation of spendthrift8. In the great commercial struggle between the nations of the earth that is to fol- low the dawn Of peace, the rigid practices of individual thrift will be necessary if we hope Co hold our own in this worldwide struggle.
 When we reach the end of mili- tary warfare. we shall have gained the threshold of international bus mess conflict.
 "The survival of the Attest is a law of nature that never will be re- pealed. Peace protocols do not ol- intimate business rivalry among the nations Of men,"

UNANIMOUS TASTE

"We an like sheep" the tenors shrill Begin. and then the church is still, While back and forth across the aisle Is seen to pass the catching smile. "Wo all like sheep" the altos moan, In low and rich and mellow tone, While broader grows the merry grin, And nose gets further off from chin. "Wo all like sheep" sopranos sing, Till an the echoes wake and ring. The young folks litter, and the rest Suppress the laughter in bursting
 chests.
 "We an like sheep," the bassos growl The litter grows into a howl, And cen the deacon's face is graced With wonders at tho singers taste. "wo all like sheep, runs the refrain, And then to make the meaning plain The singers altogether say, "wo all like sheep, have gone
 astray"
