THE MEANING OF THRIFT

Our fathers knew the meaning Of thrift
lbut their example has been forgotten. It
is no longer the age Of thrift. It is the
period fthe spendthrift. We find him
everywhere: It is easy to make money,
but hard to save it, and the spender is al.
ways in the majority.
The thrifty are Knocked and laughed
at and reviled. Extravaganza is having
its golden day. It shines with the blaze
of glory. It dazzles the eye and quickens
the pulse. But there is day of reckon
ing, UNDECIDED and unthought of.
And now we are to fall back to the ex-
ample Of the staple life. We are to be
reminded Of the advantage of thrift. It
as high time. Visionary theorists are
wasting effort on ideals too lofty to be
reached. Reformers are urging the i'm
possible and impracticable, and dema-
gogues are leading the crowds along the
highway Of unreason, unrest and I'm
belief.
1t is pleasure to turn from all these
to welcome a nation wide movement for
a revival Of American thrift. Thrift does
not mean a pinchy miserliness or the
hardship of self denial. 1t means a les
sening of extravaganza the cutting off
OF useless expenditures, the cultivation
OF the savings habit and preparation in
time OF prosperity for the inevitable hour
of need.
Thrift means larger deposits in the
banks, greater investments in reliable
securities, fewer victims of the get-rich-
quick schemes, better homes, a happier
and more contented people, and, above
above all, returning sense Of apprecia-
ton OF the manifold blessings showered
upon the American people by an ever
Kind and indllgent Providence.-Cris-
field (Md.) Times.

PRO-WAR SOCIALISM

The Socialists Of all lands are as much
divided about the war as about Socialism,
than which comparison there could be
none stronger. The object lesson of So
cialism given by the BOlsheviM warns
them that socialism will be defeated ire
trievably with Germany unless now they
dissociate socialism from defeatism in
any land. That is why Mr.. Spargo, who
repudiates and is repudiated by the reg
ular American Socialists, is now touring
across the ocean in an effort to form
league Of pro-war Socialists. Only in
that way can socialism be preserved
from the wreck Of this war. The diff
Guilty is that internationalism stands re-
vealed as anti-nationalism, and the re-
pugnance is so great that socialism suf-
fers from the reaction. r
Mr. Spargo travels abroad on his mis-
sionary trip because he sees that he can
speak for Americans only by putting So
cialism in second place. Albert Thomas,
the leader Of the French Socialists, is a
Frenchlnan first and and a Socialist Sec
ond. Scheidemann is strong German
nationalist, and altogether for German
peace. In what land is there Socialist
who is first for international socialism
and who is not repudiated by his country
men? In this supreme test nationalism
has beaten internationalism, and social
ism might as well be buried with the de-
feat of Germany. The idea Of preserving
socialism so that the war on society may
be renewed when the war on Germany
is over has nothing to commend it to any
but Socialists. This war is war enough.
Nobody has complained of insufficiency
of this war or Of its poverty of issues. Its
all-inclusiveness is its chief merit, per-
haps its only one. If socialism succumbs
with Germany, the tears will be as few
for one as for the other, both beingSsele-
revealed as enemies Of the worlds rest
and happiness under cover of pietistic
professions which no longer should gull
any.-N. Y. Times.

the United States is fighting" The
principles for which Austria has suf-
fered much and ignobly were visible in
the ultimatum which she presented in
July, 1914; and nations so powerful and
remote from the immediate scene of the

far away as Honduras and Siam, have
now joined the alliance which is pledged
to the creed that these principles shall be
definitely removed from international
politics.-N. Y. Times.

have given rise to much speculation
not only on the part OF tourists blu.
Of Psychologists also. The holes are
about an inch and half In diameter
and are bored through walls four
feet thick. They occur In pairs, each
pair on opposite sides OF a great
central room. The holes in each
pair are In line with each other, SO
that one standing in dark first
floor room behind the central room
may look through the innermst hole
across the central room and through
the outermostN hole at the sky. One
pair points due east. The other
pair points north at declining an

THE interesting people who built
this most ancient of pueblos have
left no traces behind them. One
can only imagine. by analogy from
better known neighborhood races of
later period. what their civiliza-
ton may have been. That they
were deeply religious people and
worshipers of the sun In an assump-
ton. Recently an interesting the
DRY has ben advanced to explain the
holes.
According to this theory these
holes from what might be called a
seasonal clock. Twice year, once
as the sun works north and once as
1t works south along the eastern
horizon, 1t rises In line with the
eastward pointing holes and for one
morning, for possibly three minutes
throws bar of light into the dark
inner room.
From this the ceremonial calend-
, ar could be dated and certain fes-
rivals would fall on the same day
year after year. One is reminded Of
Stonehenge In England where the
sun at its summer solstice shone
down long alley of stone monu-
ments upon an alter placed in the
center OF series of circles Of
stones.
We come now to the northern
pair Of holes which are placed In
the north wall Of the central room
and the corresponding outer wall Of
the building. This pair trends
downward and to the east so that
they never overlooked the defensive
wall which surrounded the group Of
buildings around the Casa Grande.
At first thought this precludes any
astronomical use. but the ingenious
theoist has an explanation for even
this condition of affairs.

ants the use Of an instrument Of re-

as TO which bright star near that
particular angle could have been
moved from that exact angle by the
procession Of this equinoxes, and 1t
is hoped by this point to establish
the date when the Casa Grande was

How long ago this was Is uncer-

with 500 years and more radical
guesses going to 1000 or more

CHARWOMEN ORGANIZE
AS FEDERAL WORKERS
Union May Later Be Affiliated to
National Federation.

Forty charwomen from the gov
ernment buildings met last night
and formed a unit of the National
Federation of Federal Employees.
The meeting had not been adver-
tised at all and the Federation ex-
poets to have a membership OF all
six hundred women in the govern
ment buildings shortly.
All the women present last night
pledged themselves to go among
the departments and solicit members
for the unit. As soon as they are
we'll organized the Federation will
take up their grievances and work
for relief of the women. They all
have to work three or four hours
a day. they state. although their
examination calls for only two
hours work.
Because the pay is SO small many
have left the departments and the
extra work must be done by those
left. This means longer hours with
no more pay.
The Federation will also insist on
the $120 increase for these women.

to the hospital late the following
night. Staples was seen Thursday
evening by the night Waterman at

driven him out. The Waterman re-
ported the matter to the police at
about 1910 Thursday night, and
shortly after that hour Officer Hal
pen Of the night police was standing
in front Of City hall when Staples
passed the building. Night Officer
Corbett was also approaching the
building at that time and the two Of
ficers took the man into custody. An

and took Staples back to the institu
