THRIFT IN EARLY LIFE.
That Was the Start of the Fortunes Of
Our Greatest Finanoiens.


Our Greatest Financens.
The early life Of the great builders,
the self made financiers of this coun-
try, shows the early cultivation of the
saving habit.
With few exceptions our Rockefel-
lers, Hills, Harrimans, are men who
endured great privations to save their
first few hundreds or thousands of dol
lars.
But In the use of these savings these
great men of business seemed most
reckless.
Each in turn staked his all on a little
known and decidedly shaky PROPOSE
ton and stuck with 1t until he won
out.
Rockefeller put his few hundreds,
saved from bookkeeper's salary, into
making a start in the oil business,
business so unknown at that time, 80
full of failures, that 1t was with the
utmost difficulty he was able to Dor
row any additional funds when In des-
perate need.

would scarcely lend penny.
| Ford staked his own savings on
building a gas engine and small car,

When he was ready to build his first

the organization and build the neces-
sary factory to make and market his
product. On the contrary. his enter
| prise was so poor a risk that the few
thousands necessary to get his first
start came from wage earners and
small business men, the class who no
doubt were considered ''pikers," In
vesting in a business which, had the
so called financial authorities paid any
attention to it at all, they would have
pronounced highly speculative.
Yet these and the hundreds of other
successful enterprises that have built
