RECORDS SHOW INCREASE IN
BUILDING DURING 1916

According to the records of the
city clerk building in Abilene is on
the increase, During the last year
32 permits have been taken out as
against sixteen during 1915. The
number OF permits taken out how
ever does not indicate tie number
OF buildings pat up as many struc-
lures are erected without a permit.
It Is safe to estimate that fifteen
more buildings have gone up during
1915 than permits have been issued
for.
1.-THE law in this regard is not
being enforced" said City Clerk Ell
wick. "and it is up to somebody to
get after thhe delinquents." The
owner of the building is responsible
if permit is not applied for. Ell
wick says that hereafter all pros
pective builders must have permit
from the city clerk before they will
be allowed to build.

Of his son-in-law, G. A. Kubach,

death was shock to relatives.
He was found by G. A. Kubach

A Great Temperance Rally.

On Sunday, January 2Sth, Hon.
Wesley L. Jones, United States SEN
ator from Washington, will address
great Temperance Mass Meeting at
the Lyric Theatre, Baltimore, at
1880 in the afternoon.
Senator Jones will bring story
Of the benefits of prohibition to a
great seaport city like Seattle. He
will also tell of the tremendous re-
versal Of sentiment in the cities OF
the West on the prohibition question
as evidenced by the fact that, when
the States of Washington. Oregon
and Colorado went dry in 1915, Den
yer, Seattle and Portland gave large
wet majorities; but when in 1916
after ten months of prohibition, an
effort was made by the vets to
weaken the prohibition laws in these
three states, all Of thess cities gave
overwhelming majorities for prohi'
bition.
Senator Jones is forceful speak
or and comes with all the breeziness
of the West and filed with 6
tremendous enthusiasm for the dry
movement. The meeting is for mer
only. Admission free.

Thrift Day Feb. srd, And The High
Cost OF Living.
BY G. Y. Clement.


The big idea back of national
Thrift Day is to focus the thought
Of one hundred million people upon
pactical ways and means of not only
adjustment to the high cost of liv-
ing but-action.
It is to start something We are
all creatures of natural tendencies,
ard these usually result in habits.
We establish the habit of spending
an average amount of money for
ce rtain things and when that source
Of supply is changed or some other
factor enters into the supply that
causes the cost of production to in
crease, it does not necessarily follow
that our wages increase.
With the constantly increased
cost of living, we are confronted
with the necessity for an adjust
m ent Every individuals adjust
ment is necessarily different.
Thrift Day is a day to reduce
waste; thereby increasing efficiency.
Actually taking step in the
direction of thrift has been describ-
ed as combination of mental and
physical action-both are essential
to the accomplishment.
Putting true thrift action into
effect on Thrift Day is not only
represented by placing an added de-
posit to that nest-egg being built up
in the savings account to take care
of the future, but can be practiced
in thousand different ways, de-
pending upon the environment and
habits of the idividual.
The main and big idea fulfilled on
Thrift Day by man, woman or child
includes starting thrift habit or
practice that had been decided upon
and then put off, or one. that has
just been suggested as the result of
exchange of ideas on this subject.
1t may include greater thrift Of
time. A young man or woman
comes to a realization, that dis
proporinate amount of time has been
expended in so-called society or
amusement, every evening being
given up to comparatively idle as
sociation and idle talk, That indi-
vidual decides upon course OF. in
structive reading or night-school
class of one or more evenings each
week Having the time set is i'm
pcrtant. Starting course of study
on the evening. of Thrift Day with
this end in view, thereby practicing
greater thrift of time, is in effect
setting the wheels in motion toward
he goal of top-notch efficiency and,
Individual success.
One of the greatest objects Of the
proper conception of Thrift Day is
to recognize the true meaning OF
thrift-and that meaning is none
other than increased efficiency.
