EoR YOUTHFUL SAVERS.

Decide first how much you can put
by each week or month from the
amount you earn, and then stick TO
that weekly or monthly saving.
Figure how much you can save,
not how much you win have left to
spend. BY the first way you en-
courage q saving frame OF mind. BY
the second, you keep your spending
frame OF mind.
Begin bank account. You'll find
the banks officers ready to show you
how. They do not advise you that
you can grow rich by putting a
stated amount in the bank each week
and simply sticking to 1t the rest of
your life. But as you grow older in
account increases, good investments
are necessary, and the bank will help
you to pick them.
The important thing to remember
Is that ii takes only small sum to
open an account. Everything must
have q start and some OF the biggest
fortunes have grown from O first
dollar saved.
The amount You save is not so
valuable as forming the saving habit.
That habit is worth more to you than
a gift Of $4,000 would be. Ifsyou
are spender the money would soon
be gone and you would have nothing
to show for IL. But If you are thrift
ty, you are richer with one dollar in
the bank than any apender is with
$4,000 there.
The habit of thrift trains you SO
that you escape being spender.

ARRIVAL OF GERARD.
Party With Former Ambassador Re-
veal True Conditions in Germany.

Party With Former Ambassador Re-
veal True Conditions in Germany.
Habana, March, 12: Appalling
conditions prevailing throughout Ger
many were revealed yesterday when
James W. Gerard, the recalled
American Ambassador at Berlin and
his party arrived here from Spain.
While Mr.. Gerard refused to make
any statement before he sees Presi-
dent Wilson at Washington, for which
place he starts tomorrow, several
men and women who left Germany
with him, said the people were starv-
ing and had reached that stoical
stage where they did not care whether
victory or defeat came. What they
want is food.
The iron hand of Prussianism still
throttles the people of Germany,
keeping them in ignorance of true
conditions, hiding from them the
strength of their enemies and boil
stering their weakening courage
with false reports of victories.
The last straw to break the camels
back will come before another
year, when harvests must fail for
lack of men and fertilizers, when
starvation must be even more acute
than now, when even the troops may
not have sufficient food and when the
people must know and realize the
failure and the futility of Prussla's
last desperate chance-the ruthless
submarine atrocity.
Several of the passengers spoke
of the conditions among the allies,
Al man whose high Office made 1t nee
essarv for him to stipulate that his
name be not used said that the fu-
ture conduct of the war must be IN
the hands of England.
Germany and France have now
reached the limit Of their man power
he said, "and today are putting up
the utmost of their resources. In
France man of Importance told me
that it is now up to England; that
France has done her best and is now
doing her all. And England is COM
ing forward with all and more than
is needed, and that henceforth Great
Britain will bear the greatest burden
in the continuation Of the war. She
will meet it squarely, bravely ana
adequately"
