true. 1t really was another dog that
was barking dog that was
waiting on the other side of Swift
River And almost as soon as Fr1sky
saw him, that other dog started right
across the dam, to meet Frisky!
There was no time to lose. Frisky
had to make up his mind very quickly.
He gave just one look at the deep mill
pond He could swim-if he had to.
But he just hated to get wet. And he
knew that the dogs were much faster
swimmers than he was. So he looked
away from the water with shudder.
And he peeped over the steep side OF
the dam and gazed at the rocks be-
low, where the water splashed into
countless drops.
Those rocks were long way be-
meath him. But there was one thing
about Frisky Squirrel-he never was
the least bit dizzy or afraid. when he
looked down from high places. Per
haps there were too many other things
to be afraid of-such as coons and
foxes and dogs.
The miller's dog was drawing nearer
now, because Frisky had stopped. And
the dog from the other side Of the
river was only about six jumps away!
Frisky Squirrel didn't wait another
instant. He jumped right down the
face of the dam Where he had stood
moment before the two dogs came
together with bump. Probably they
would have started to fight, II they had
not been so interested in Frsky SOUR
rel There they stood, with their
necks stretched out over the edge Of
the dam, watching Frisky as he went
rolling and tumbling down to the bed
of the river And when they saw him
pick himself up and 60 skipping from
stone to stone until he reached the
shore and scampered away, they look.
ed very foolish indeed.
In fact, they felt foolish too. And
without saying one word they turned
about and each crept back to hAs own
side Of Swift River.

these boards obtain intimate knowl-
edge of the financial condition of fam
lilies, and it develops in numerous
cases that in the course OF years not
the slightest effort has been made to
lay by any proportion, small or large,
of the family earnings. The thought
Of saving money seems never to have
occurred to many of them. With in
comes from their net earnings run
ming from $1,000 to $4,000 annually,
men frankly admit they have not
saved cent. And the worst feature
is that it appears in most cases that
earnings are in excess of actual neces-
sites and the candid confession is
made that indulgence in pleasure and
luxury has taken the place of saw
ings account
This is a serious matter. For the
past few years nearly every agency OF
publicity has been preaching the COS
pei of saving. Newspapers have or
ganized careful campaigns to instill
the saving habit: banks have issued
convincing short sermons urging the
road to independence which comes
with money laid away; mercantile and
manufacturing concerns have organ
lied movements to impress upon en-
ployes the value Of the regular saving
of some portion, no matter how small,
of their earnings. 1t has been an era
of saving propaganda The educa-
tional campaign in that direction has
been nationwide Wise heads have
Urged the imperative necessity of such
a course in view of the period of infla-
ton and of the obvious tendency of the
people to extravaganza and indul-
gence.
But here come these exemption
board members with the information
that disclosures made them by heads
of families show that in cases so nu-
merous as to be alarming not cent
has been laid away for che proverbial
rainy day With fair salaries and with
large salaries the living has gone on
from hand to mouth and not thought
for the future
This state of affairs is not peculiar
to any locality. Largely it is an Amer
lean failing. Improvidence has grown
into habit. People have sparrow-like
absence of thought for the morrow.
though the indifference is not based
upon a serene reliance upon the prov
idence of the Almighty 1t is SNUG
and stupid matter of living for the day
alone.
Where so much has been urged of
the value OF systematic saving, large
or small, it is difficult to make the
appeal stronger. 1t ought to be
brought home to every Garner. The
capacity to save is as valuable as the
capacity to earn. Time and circum-
stance will bring to every Garner the
time when he no longer can earn. 1t
is unbelievable that any Garner has not

Emu On The MiIIdam.

There was something about the dam
across Swift River that Frisky SPUR
rel simply couldn't keep away from
after he had forgotten somewhat, his
fright at the gristmill. Only a few
days passed after Frisky had run
home from the mill in a panic, before
he was back again. He liked to run
across the top of the dam and look
down at his reflection in the water on
one side. Here and there narrow
stream spilled over the top Of the dam.
Frisky felt very brave as he leaped
over those little rivulets. And he low

One day when Frisky reached the
dam he heard dog bark not far away.
It was the miller's dog. He had seen
Frisky as he crossed the road. And
he at once hurried toward him.
Frisky Squirrel was annoyed. He
had just been thinking what good
time he was going to have. But when
that dog started to bark Frisky knew
that his fun was spoiled. He wasn't
frightened. Oh. no! But he was sure

He hurried on to the bank of the
river; and In a few moments he was
skipping along the dam. The dog was
still barking And Frisky looked
around at him. To his great surprise,
there was the dog following him, right
along the top Of the dam. But even
then Frisky was not frightened. He
simply hurried little faster. He had
not dreamed that the miller's dog
would chase him across Swift River.
But there he was. And he was run

CITIZENS MAY
HAVE TO WALK

Des Moines, Aug. 21.-Rapid fall of
the Des Moines river is threatening
the power supply here. and in event of
a continued or sudden drop. Des
Moiens may be compelled to walk to
work until heavy rains begin.
To save its power supply the Des
Moines City Railway company is
building a temporary dam of pilings
below its intake TO raise water for the
condensers.
The rapid fall of the river. which
amounted TO more than foot and a
half last week. has brought the sur
face of the water down so low as to
threaten the supply for the company's
power plant.
If the temporary dam is completed
in time. the situation may be handled
until the new concrete structure under
construction by the Dest Moines elec-
trio company, has been completed.

DIscouRAGlNG FRITZ,

News from the French, British and
Italian armies within the past twenty
four hours is particularly gratifying to
those amateur strategists who have
wondered for months why these three
forces Of the entente did not unite in 81
multaneous drives which would demand
the attention of all the Teuton forces
on the western and Italian fronts and
permit none of the rapid shifting Of
army corps from one point OF attack
to another.
1t is apparent that the attacks Of
which the first news came yesterday
have been launched in accordance
with pre-arranged program in which
British, French and Italian leaders CO.
operated. and the result seems to be
rather disquieting for the Germans
and for luckless Austria.
The steady pounding to which the
German line is being subjected in Bel
GUM and northeastern France is re-
sulting in marked gains for the allies
in territory which Is of vital import
ance to the enemy. Meanwhile, Brit
ish aviators are dropping bombs by the
ton on Ostend, Zeebrugge and other
Belgian points where the Germans
have naval, aerial and ammunition
bases.
Although the physical progress is
slow, 1t is progress nevertheless. and
by the same token 1t is defeat for the
Germans. When the map is consulted
and the changes in the location of the
battle line within the past few months
are considered. there is ample reason
for believing the stories which come
occasionally from entente sources. tell
ing of decline in the morale Of the Ger
man soldiers and encouragement
among the prisoners taken by the
allied armies in their frequent battles.

YOUNGEST MAJOR IN

Sigourney, Aug. 21.-Sigoumey
claims the youngest major in the
United States army. despite the claim
of other cities that one of their sons

States army with the rank of major.
His age is 30 years. Glenn L. Latter

kuL1UR IN AMERICA.

In the entertaining article on this
mage from the pen Of DR.. ]. A. Hull is
given an interesting sidelight on his.
forical facts which casual readers OF
ordina.v works of history miss.
The relationship between the reign
~ families Of England and Germany
Is known in general way, OF course,
,and the present English king is DONG
his best to wipe out the fact by the
Adoption Of the family name OF Wind
l,or and the abolition OF the German
Inames and titles that have been used
lin England for generations.
DR.. Hull shows that the war OF the
revolution was brought about by re.
bellion against German rule instead OF
english rule. or mis-rule, and his ar
sument carries conviction.
