IN OUR OWN HANDS

Solution of the financial crisis super induced by the unjust cost of living, is largely in the hands of the American people themselves, according to the United States Federal Reserve Board. Tn his letter to the Senate Committee on Banking and Finance, w. P. G. Harding, governor of the Federal Re serve Board, said:
 Whether viewed from an economic or finaacial standpoint the remedy for the present situation is the same, name ly to work and to>save; work regularly and efficiently, in order to produce and distribute the largest possible volume of commodities, and to exercise econo- mics in order tLat money, goods and services may be devoted primarily to the liquidation of debt and to the sat isfaction of the demand for necessities, rather than to the indulgence in ex- travagance or the eradication of a desire for luxuries."
 America must both work and save. There are many ways to work but only one way to save. That is to save first and spend afterwards, to put aside the first dollar that comes in, not the last dollar that goes out. It was to make possible the saving of even the smallest sums and their safe investment that government Savings Stamps and Treas ury Savings Certificates were offered to the American people.
 Students of economics declare that this country is on magnificent pros perity debauch. Dealers in jewelry, ex- peusive apparel and food delicacies throughout the country say the demand for their wares is unprecedented and that buyers do not care what they pay for them.
 Stop living up to your wages or sal ary. Save regularly and invest in War Savings Stamps.

Eooting by the Ancients.
 After the battle of Cannae-August 2, 216 B. C.-in which the Romans were totally defeated by Hannibal, the Carthaginian leader ordered that the gold rings should be taken from the, hands of the dead Romans and heaped up in the vestibule of his quarters. Enough were collected to fill bushel basket, and they were sent to Car thage, not as valuable spells of war, but as proof of the great slaughter among the Roman patricians and knights, for at that time none below the rank of knights, and only those of highest standing among them, those provided with steeds by the state, had been given the right to wear gold rings. On days of national mourning the gold rings were laid aside as mark of sorrow and respect and iron rings were substituted. This was the case after the defeat at Cannae and on the funeral day of Augustus Caesar in A. D. 14.
