opment of this virtue in the Army
and Navy will contribute much to
the morale of our fighting forces.
Thrift develops poise and peace of
mind-two essentials especially need
ed by the man in uniform. That our
boys are learning lessons in thrift is
shown by the fact that the Young
Mems Christian Association in the
Army and Navy camps and posts is
handling over $1,000000 a month
through the sale of money orders
and the opening of accounts for the
soldiers IN savings and commercial
banks. In one camp alone, over $50
OOO IS being deposited in local banks

of the camps, the sale of money or
