THRIFT SCHOOL PLAN
OUTLINED BY EXPERT
DR.. Smaller Mathews Explains
Scope and Purpose of Great :
u. S. Educationa! Move
ment for Saving.
BY DR.. SMALLER MATHEWS.

Committee for Seventh District and
Vice Director for Illinois.

Thrift will be taught in the schools
of the states constituting the Seventh
federal reserve district.
The children Of Iowa will help pre-
pare the Little Lessons in Thrift which
are being written by Prof. Macy Camp
bell of the Iowa State Teachers col
lege, under the general direction Of an
educational committee Of the district.
Besides the chairman the educational
committee consists of W. E. Larson,
department of public instruction, Wis
consin; J. V. McNally, Detroit public
schools, Michigan, and Macy Campbell,
Iowa State Teachers college.
The Little Lessons in Thrift appear
fortnightly on printed sheets. The les
sons are prepared for the different
grades in the schools. They are Illus
trated and interesting. They teach
savings as a phase Of good citizenship,
give problems of arithmetic in terms Of
thrift stamps, chewing gum, candy
and other things a child buys.
It is a new field which is thus being
opened UP and the war savings organ
ization is rendering a great service to
the rising generation. Nor is it all
mere theory. The teaching of the prin-
ciples of thrift is combined with sort
of manual training in thrift, through
the sale of War Savings Stamps in
schools.
Along with these Little Lessons in
Thrift the educational committee fur
nishes the schools with pupils thrift
cards, on which the teacher keeps an
account of the amount, however small,
which the pupil brings to her for the
purpose of buying stamps. This prac-
tice itself becomes educational, be-
cause the pupil gets introduced to
simple bookkeeping and banking.
These plans have received the hear
tiest cooperation of the school admin
istration in the various states and
cities. The parochial and private
schools also are cooperating in the use
Of the material and plans prepared by
the committee.
The young men and women of the
next generation will have a higher re-
spect for thrift and a better under
standing as to how to spend their
money, for they will learn even in the
primary grades that thrift is not miser-
illness but a way Of spending money SO
as to make, it for them.

FINANCING VICTORY LOAN
WILL HELP INDUSTRY
Must Be Distributed Among All the
People-Every Americans Savings
Needed to Keep Wheels
Turning.

julius RosenWald, president Of
Sears, Roebuck & Co., and a dollar
year government employee, stated re-
Gently that Germany surrendered, not
SO much because she was beaten as
because her military chiefs saw the
Impending WhirlWind Of American
men, munitions, airplanes, food and
supplies, which they knew meant an
Inhalation in the not distant future for
the German armies.
"The Victory lOan-it should be
called the Thanksgiving loan-which
pays a part of the bill for that prep
aration that saved the lives Of hun
drCds of thousands Of American boys,
can in no wise be weighed against the
destruction of life which our prepara-
tons averted," Mr.. ROsenWald pointed
out
1.-THE loan must be financed before
industry can go ahead. Proper fnanc-
ing of the loan means that it must be
distributed among all the people,
means that the savings Of every Amer
lean must be loaned to his government.
Unless such wide distribution is eff
fected-and it can only be effected
with the assistance Of the great or
CARNATIONS which have been built up
during the past drives-the financial
houses will have to absorb the loan.
Such a result would be disastrous to
the business world, for funds needed
in trade reconstruction would have to
be withdrawn from circulation and in
terest rates would mount so high that
private concerns would find it almost
impossible to borrow for their neces-
sites.
Il bespeak the cooperation of ev-
cryone who lent aid to the govern
ment in the past drives. I am fully
convinced that the American people
will respond as readily to this appeal
for funds as they have to the past. I
am sure that statesmen and organizers
who during the last drive found so
ready response that they sold nearly
$1,000 100000 worth of government Sc
curities will find an even more pleas
ant reception when they seek subscrip-
tons to the Victory loan," Mr.. Rosen-
valid concluded.

Milk Provides Fuel

Milk gives your children fuel to burn
in their bodies. They need the fuel TO
keep them warm and to help them
run and play and work, much as an
automobile needs gasoline or a steam
engine needs coal. They are so active
that they need more fuel for their size
thah grown people do. The fat and
the milk sugar and part of the pro-
TEN in the milk all burn up as fuel.

No Safer Guarantee Than Our
Surplus Gold Possible.
Gold is the basis of all credit.

Gold is the basis of all credit.
The United States is now about to
enter fifth great popular campaign
for the sale of government bonds to
the citizens of the nation. America
has contracted more than $5,OO0,O00,-
600 of debt since December l last in
paying war bills, and this money must
he raised by the people.
Every reader of this paper undoubt-
edly believes that United States gov
eminent bonds are the safest invest
ment on earth. But many of them do
their belief.
One Of the reasons why United
States government bonds are the
safest investment on earth is that the
United States now possesses one-third
Of the worlds gold. This has come
about as a result of the war The ma
ton had large gold holdings before the
fighting began in 1914, but since then
the nations of the earth have been
forced to send us shiploads of gold in
order to get needed supplies and main
tain trade relations.
The Federal Reserve banks do not
hold, probably, more than two-thirds
Of this nations supply of gold, yet
they have in their reserves more than
One-half as much as the state banks
Of the next IA most wealthy nations,
and abroad the state banks have col
lected practically every gold piece that
the people possessed.
The following table bearing this fact
in mind, tells why the government
bonds are the safest investment
known:

HEAVY HOG LOSS CAN
BE LARGELY AVOIDED
Greater Care Should Be Used
in Shipping Live Animals.
Cars Ought to Be Thoroughly Cleaned
Before Loading and Not Over.
Notwithstanding While in
Transit Is Helpful.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Last May 651 hogs, weighing ap-
proximately $4,000 pounds, were I'M
loaded dead, or died in the stockyards
at the South st. Paul market. Of this
number, $50 hogs, weighing approx
mately 100000 pounds, died in transit
or in yards during the last six days
OF the month. This was the week of
the first real warm weather, and as
is usually the case during the first
hot spell in the summer season, the
loss of hogs in transit was extremely
heavy. The difference in price between
dead or live hogs during this week
was approximately Is cents a pound,
which would mean a total loss of
about $18,36O. This loss might have
been largely avoided if the shippers
had taken proper care in loading, see
ing that all cars were properly cleaned
before loading, and that cars were not
loaded as heavily as is the custom in
cooler weather. If these hogs had been
loaded in clean cars the losses could
have been further decreased by having
them sprayed often in transit by the
carrier, especially upon arrival at
transfer points. and also upon delivery
to the terminal. One of the largest
buyers Of hogs at the South st. Paul
market, who reships to other markets
for slaughter, states that the losses of
his firm during the last week in May
were no heavier than usual, but that
they were extremely careful to have
their cars thoroughly cleaned and sand
ed before loading, in addition to load
ing lighter than usual and taking the
adequate precaution of requesting the
railroad officials to issue instructions
to have the hogs sprayed as often as
possible in transit.
