If one comedies that every dollar
saved eventually finds its way back
into industry, the relation of the
small investor to the present prob

investor can do his share to relieve
the strain on the banks and release

Notes fit the needs of the average
American unaccustomsd to financial
dealings.
There is enough money in America
to take care of every need if it is not
allowed to lie idle. The fact that
every dollar invested releases one
more dollar to finance our own pros
perity, must be driven home. The
every day citizen must learn the val
ne of his idle dollar and that he
counts in financing American busin-
ess. A popular understanding of
the financial situation should pro-
vide the capital needed.

A healthful vacation, 10 gel

is a very necessary mental anG
physical tonic for the hard-work-

Very Ancient Clocks

Mr.. c.. 4. FITZGERALD Of this
place, has clock that is over 400
years old. 1t was sent to her
from England and the tariff (im-
port duty) on it was $3.50.
When it arrived a few months
ago, it was not in running order,
though several artisans both in
England and America had tried to
repair it, but failed. Finally, it
was taken to II. H. Rhoades,
matchmaker of Punta Gorda,
who successfully repaired and
started it to running and it is now
keeping correct time.
Mr.. Rhoades was equally sue
cessful in putting in order
French clock, 300 years old, which
is owned by 7. G. Crosland. He
has met with similar success in re-
pairing various kinds of time
pieces from other European coun-
tries, particularly Switzerland,
which defeated the efforts of
ether watch-makers to put them
in running order.
Mr.. Rhoades served a long APP
premiership in the business and
has since had many years CT sue
cessful experience, and he natur-
ally feels that, if any one can
make either an ancient or modern
time-piece run and keep correct
time, he can do it.
