LEARNING TO MAKE
MONEY ONLY HALF
Wise Spending Is Also Essential
According to War Savings
Organization.

Learning how to make money is
only half. 1t is learning how to
spend wisely and save judiciously that
counts.
Even saving does not necessarily
mean wise spending, since the pres.
ent day offers so many equivalents for
our money. 1t is only by making a
careful, systematic study of the house.
hold administration that a proper bal.
ance may be found between the diff.
ferent items in the average budget of
the home.
There are items in every household
on which too much money Is spent.
The fact must be faced that if too
much is spent on clothing, for in
stance, less must be spent for. other
necessities of life.
Saving. however, is the item that
should be most emphasized. Poor.
houses are full Of people who did not
have a savings item on their budgets
Unemployment. sickness. old age and
many other demands necessitate a call
on the reserve fund, the lack of which
will result in suffering and want.
Every going enterprise is conducted
on system. If the home is to be sue
cessful institution it must also com
ply with this wise rule of economics
Systematic household accounting will
make home more cheerful and pros
porous Household accounting alone,
however, will never return it's full ben
eft until it is backed by an intelligent
family budget.
One must consider the problem OF
whether it is wiser to pay rent or tc
build home. In large measure this
depends on local conditions as well as
the size of the income.
Amusement and recreation are es'
sential in family life. The child and
the adult should have an allowance
for this, though the total be very
small. averaging from to 5 per cent
of the income of the family.
The wise spender plans the needs OF
the family so that the amount spent
in the miscellaneous" items will be
as small as possible. This item should
not be catch all' in home records.

MUCH JUNK FOUND BY
VIRGINIA COMMUNITY

Thrift and junk business are boom
ing at Emporia, Va. at keeps me
busy running to the post office to get
Thrift Stamps to pay for all the sal
wage that is coming in now," said
the proprietor Of one Of the junk
shops. Where all the junk comes
from is a constant wonder. No one
would have believed that so much
stuff could have been hidden away in
a town of this size"
Under the voluntary organization
of Mrs. w. B. Goodwin, of Emporia
all the housewives OF the town have
been conducting an organized salvage
campaign, in accordance with the
plans outlined by the War Loan Or
xanization of the Fifth Federal Re
serve District.
Salvage so collected is sold to the
local junk dealer for its full value in
Thrift Stamps. According to arrange
ments already made with most deal
ers in waste materials in the Fifth
District, wagons will call for junk
wherever a Salvage" card Is dis
played. These cards have been dis
tributed all over the State.
Not only has Emporia found that
,this organized campaign is resulting
in a highly beneficial town cleanup"
but a source OF economic welfare
hardly known before has thus come
to light.
The salvage campaign has proved
so satisfactory in Emporia that junk
wagons are now being run out to the
surrounding towns.

Relics OF Old VILLAGE Found.

Digging for woodcEuck on the out
skirts of a virgin forest near Cato, n.
Y, led to the discovery by Maynard
A. CrameG of a buried prehistoric
Indian Village, which bids fair to
prove the largest of several which
have been excavated during the past
half century in the Finger lakes re-
gion of Central New'York, one of the
most heavily populated by Indians Of
any equal area in North America.
Rones were found a few inches be-
low the surface of the ground and be-
meath these lay two skeletons OF In
dians, so determined by the shape
of the skull. Led on, Mr.. Cramer,
who is member of the State ArchH-
logical Association, excavated large
area, finding a mass of rare Indian
relics in many dumps. y
For the first time in history, it is
believed, relics unearthed disclosed
both Algonquin and Iroquis occupan-
cy of the same camp site. Hundreds
of arrow heads, with bone avis, beads,
knives, hammers, mortars or M 'aling
stones, notched sinkers, fish Aooks.
picks, cylindrical pestles, pipes and
broken pottery were mingled in the
masses of debris which lay beneath
the moss of the forest.
Besides one skeleton was charcoal
believed to have been used in thawing
out the ground in winter that the IN
dian might be buried. 1t is estinat-
ed that the village was occupied about
five centuries ago. Rep rts of the
State Archnlogist,- who is expected to
