Lessons In Thrift
Buy More W. S. S.

The fact that money saved TODAY
VIII buy far more, say five years hence

invest it for future use according TO
Theodore Void, governor of the Min
neapolis Federal Reserve bank. Pres
ent high prices, he declared. yesterday,
are an important factor in the situa-
ton.
Let us take a certain sum of mon

other words the money which would
buy 7.6 pounds of butter today will

This is not necessarily an argument
against buying butter, unless one is
buying more than he needs said Gov

the public must save and that saving

by reducing consumption. If we con-

Thousands of Passes
Issued By Rail Adm.

Washington. Aug. 25.-Among the
interesting disclosures in the report To
the senate on railroad passes by Di-
rector General of Railroads w ID.
Hines is that William Gibbs McAdoo.
who announced when he took over tho
railroads that he intended to reduce
materially the number of passes, no
only had a pass himself, but three
members of his family also had them.
Perhaps even more interesting, he
still retains a Pullman pass and so do
the members of his family. Mr.. Nc
Adoo is described in the report as ex-
planning he has a pass as special
counsel for the state of New York"
The members of his Iamily who have
passes are Mrs. McAdoo, President
Wilson's daughter; Robert II. McAdoo,
a son and Miss S McAdoo, a daughter.
Inquiry in the number of passes was
made by Senator Truman II Newberry-
of Michigan, who defeated Henry Ford
after he noticed a travelling compan
ion the other day with a pass good
owe all railroads in the states.
Passes Numbering 10000 Out
Mr.. Newberry found it numbered
higher than 10000, so on his return
to Washington he put in a resolution
which the senate adopted, calling for
the number of passes granted to Of
icials and their families. The figures
do not include passes to works other
than officials, and do not include trip
passes.
Senators were astonished at the re-
suit, it having ben thought govern
ment control would have the effect, as
promised by Mr.. AcAdoo, of greatly
curtaiIing the number of passes. espe-
cially to members OF families of Off
Gals.

COTTON CONTINUED IN

Washington, Sept. 24,-Cotton con- tlnucs in most satisfactory condi tlon, the national weather and crou bulletin for the week ending Tues day announced today. Rainfall dur ing the week was frequent in Texas and much of Arkansas and Oklahoma. but elsewhere in the cotton belt it was mostly light to moderate and the temperature averaged generally above normal.
 Cotton made fairly good progress in Mississippi, Oklahoma and Western Texas but elsewhere little or no i'm provcment was reported and the crop deteriorated in many localities. In North Carolina, continued dry wealth CT was harmful. In South Carolina It IS only poor to fairly good with only fair prospect for a top crop. 1t IS beyond possibility of improve mcnt in Georgia.

Interest on Russian
 Liabilities Great

London, Sept. 1.-(Correspondence of The Associated Press) s).-Interest on Russia's state liabilities today amounts annually to approximately $643 ,000, according to state ment issued from Omsk by the min ister of finance of the Kolchak gov ernment.
 In 1914 the national debt was B. 637 100000 rubles, the statement says. Internal war time loans aggre- gated 33,000,00O,000 rubles while loans contracted abroad amount to 8,O00,O00,000 rubles, thus bringing the debt to total of about 50,000, ,000,- 900 rubles. About 5O,OOO,OOO rubles yearly would be required for the amortisation of this tremendous sum.
 The statement points out the fact that the figures quoted in rubles rep resent fictitious values as the for eign loans were issued abroad in Eng fish, American, French, Japanese and Italian currencies which cannot be converted into rubles at the old gold rate of exchange.
 Whereas France, in pre-war days, was Russia's largest creditor, it is noted that Great Britain supplied the bulk of Russia's financial require ments during hostilities with France, America, Japan and Italy ranking in the order named.

Paris, Sept. 24.-When the French Chamber assemblies after the coming election it is expected that fifty per cent of the deputies will be veterans of the great war. Ev- cry one is looking forward to a ho- rizon blue chamber.
 Binst-Valmer, writer who ren- dered such eminent services with the tanks in the last two years of the war expects to be returned to the chamber. He has written thatone of the first measures that he will try to have passed will be the rewarding by titles of the victorious French Generals. Commenting upon the title granted by the King of Eng land to General Byng, making him Lord Byng of Vimy, Binst- -Valmer writes:
 "I shall ask the new house that the names of great battles be added to the names of our great marshals and generals. For a tentative list Joffre, Duke of Marne; Marshal Foch, Prince of the Yser, the title of Prince has to be foreign one, Duke Ina cmfw i vb vb vbg vbgvbgvbgbgkq of St. Gond and of the Aisne; Mar shal Petain, Duke of Verdun; Gen eral Castlenau, Duke of Nancy; Gen eral Mangin, Duke of Villers- Cot terets, Gouraud,, Duke of Chalons: Debeney, Duke of Montideder."

should make love as he did everv- thing else. 1 was not prepared for his cyclonic declaration when it came. had suspected it would come and in true Crittenden style. And it did.
 He called one evening and the mo- ment he entered the room began. He looked his finest that night, his chin high and his steady eys mas terful, compelling. He walked right up to me and told me all about it And well, just stood there and let him hold my hands and look at me while he told it. 1 couldn't have done otherwise-not with Crfittenden
 No girl, l am sure, ever had a lover more impetuous.
 "l love you Bess, and I want you,' he said. And l must have you. You are everything 1 can ask for in a woman" Then, looking at me and holding my hands with his own warm, strong ones, he went on: "You love me, too Bess,, don't you? Say it Bess-say you love me!''
 My goodness! That was my thought as think of his proposal And the next moment he had his arms about me; and was kissing me, and him. And another moment and told him l loved him; that would marry him. In fact I told him everything he asked, granted all he demanded. I must say demanded, for it was nothing else. He was like some wild barbarian, but a very handsome barbarian, sweeping down upon his lady love and fore, ing her to return his affection whether she wanted to or not. But Il wanted to return it.

IV.-HE MAKES LOVE TO ME.


 "And you are the most attractive man. MT. Crittenden Hayes, that l ever met" 1 said, boldly, indeed, for girl of twenty. And the next moment l blushed guiltily, although there was no one to hear this very candid expression of opinion. For l voiced it after he had gone, when was standing in front ot the mirror in my bed room letting down my hair.
 "Well, he is," 1 retorted, defiant ly as the girl in the mirror looked at me reprovingly. Then 1 turned away to escape the rebuke in the mirror girls eyes and went to bed thinking, 1 confess, of the man whose attention l had attracted and who had attracted mine.
 My favorable impression of him came to see me ofter. We swam a great deal in the weeks that follow ed-swam and motored and grew to be friends. Also we became Grit tenden" and "Bess" to each other.
 Daddy looked on apparently with out interest, although, of course, his devotion to me was quite sufficient to establish the fact that he wanted me to have the happiness that every girl must want. He told me Crit tenden Hayes was a fine type of young man; that he came of a good family; had a successful business of his own, and that he had no objec- tion to him.
 "As matter of fact, Bess," he teased one day when Crittenden's visits had become more and more frequent, "you are a wise little owl as I we'll know, and l can depend upon you to send him packing if he

doesn't measure up to one hundred per cent
 l said nothing in reply, but at the time l was quite firmly convinced that Crittenden not only measured up to one hundred per cent, but that he was many, many points above par.
 ~ And yet-and yeti knew then that Crlttenden was obstinate, az gressive and tremendously asser- tive. He was as insistent as he was handsome, as energetic as he was physically strong, while the force of his convictions was comparable only to his keenness of mind.
 There had been many little incl dents in the time 1 had known hlm that showed he was a man to have what he wanted if such a thing were humanly possible. l had no trouble in guessing him to be an only child as was.
 It seemed he had a nature that could not be denied. l knew later that he always had had what he wanted; and now that he was man -shrewd, capable, forceful, with de- sires and tastes developed by the comfortable world he lived in-he wanted many things, and got them before he stopped. Nor was it self ishness altogether. It was that he wanted his way. If he chose to give one something, he would force it's acceptance in spite of all protests he would have his way regardless of everything and everybody.
 Yet knowing these things then, I liked him better than any man ever had known. And my liking for him developed the more saw him.
 It was natural that Crittenden
