RUN THE HOUSEHOLD
ON BUDGET SYSTEM
Keep Careful Accounts and Divide
Family Income Wisely
Suggestions for vari-
GUS Salaries.

q budget is absolutelysneceSsary TO
the wise and well-prOportioned running
of a household. No budget can be made
to fit all families, even families OF
similar size, locality, ETC., but the we'll
prOportiOned budget provides a fair
financial basis, q starting point from
which to begin the work of wisely d.
viding the family income.
The main thing is to get the budg-
ct started, to keep careful accounts
in a way that will permit analyzatiOn
of expenditures-for at least several
months; a year, if possible. Many
people keep accounts, personal ana
household, only in way that balances
cash and shows how it has been gem
orally expended. A budget should do
better than that.
An exact budget is difficult to pro-
vide at present, with all living prices
in a state of fiux but with a prevailing
upward tendency. Figures differ great
ly in various sections of the country
frequently in various sections OF the
same state But in strictly industrial
centers. it has been authenticity COM
puted, food usually consumes about 43
per cent of the ordinary income, shell
ter IS per cent, fuel and light 6 per
cent, and the various ''Sundries" so
grouped because so difficult of more
exact classification, 20 per cent. In the
following suggestive budgets for vary
ing incomes the Saving" item has
been placed first as most necessary
where the family income is not too
large and is practically inelastic.
This item may include life insurance,
savings bank accounts and such inev-
liable incOme-bearing governmental Sc
curities absolutely necessary with the
kind of incomes nOted-as Liberty
Bonds a ID War Savings Stamps.

THRIFT SCHOOL PLAN
OUTLINED BY EXPERT
Dr.. Smaller Mathews Explains
Scope and Purpose of Great
U. S. Educational Move
ment for Saving.
BY DIR. SMALLER MATHEWS.

VI W. % EouNdktOiiGt
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. K. 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 phase of good citizenship,
give problems of arithmetic in terms Of
thrift stamps, chewing gum, candy
and other things child buys.
II 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 herr
test 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 viii have 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 way of spending money so
as to make Ii for them

How tiny Belgium stood forth alone And kept the road against the Teuton horde Till help could gather; knowing well the price She yet would pay for her fidelity. And France! Proud, debonair, heroic France. What anguish has been hers, so nobly
 borne, What near-defeat, what consummate
 success. "They shall not pass!" she said-and
 kept her word. And all the world is lover to her now, Ardent, adoring, eager to be kind. And Italy! The land of sunny skies And careless, laughter, and the easy

Disposition of members of the
House Appropriations Committee is
to insist upon more than $910,S50 of
the 100000, 900 asked for educational
purposes in the general appropria-
ton bill going to elementary schools
and to meet dollar for dollar the
Federal aid proposed for agricultural
and Industrial work. The appropria-
ton committee will start work this
week on pruning of the appropria-
tion bill which carries over $42,0O0,OOO
and educational appropriations will
be revised.
Last session $1S,000,000 was voted
and it is figured out that the elemen-
year 100000 is asked, and it is
figured out that the elementary
schools will get $15.533,S50 or an in
crease of $910.S50. The normal
schools are asking for material in
creases for salaries, improvements.

debts, while S146,000 more is asked
for continuation schools, $4,000
more for high schools and about s56,
600 more is asked for county super
intendence.
The United States will give the
state $1S6,7S6 for vocational educa
tion which must be matched and the
amount asked in the bill for voca-
tional work is 100000. Under the
Smith -Lefever law there will be over
$500, 600 for agricultural education to
be matched.

Paris, March 10.-All the allied
nations have presented their bills
for indemnities to the reparation
commission, except France. That of
France will not be ready for another
week.
The amounts claimed by the vari-
Gus nations from Germany cannot
yet be made public, the commission
reserving to itself the right to give
out the figures. 1t can be stated,
however, that Belgium's demands
total between thirty-tive and forty
billion francs-twenty billion francs
for actual physical war destruction
and the balance for thefts, requisi-
tions, seizures and the like. This is
the largest figure claimed by any
belligerent with the exception of
France.
Need Is Immediate
There is one thing, however, of
greater immediate importance and
absolutely vital to Belgium than pre-
senting it's indemnity bill," said one
of the Belgian delegation to the cor
respondent this afternoon. THAT
question is priority for Belgium s
claim on the first instalment paid by
Germany. If this cannot be guar
must be made to Belgium imme-
diately. Otherwise tn present stag

economic situation will be crippled
and helpless for long years to come"
