The allowance should provide a

not necessitate so much care or
thought as to burden the growing

NAL circumstances, be "helped out"

understand that this sum, with his

Savings Societies Important.

Organized effort along the lines Of

of the big factors in keeping the

The early organization of hundreds
of additional war savings societies in
the industrial concerns of the state,
through which employees are induced
to compete in saving and the elimina-
tion of needless expenses, is now be-
ing actively planned.
In the schools of the state war saw
ings societies generally are keeping
up the good work started last year. In
some of the city schools the years

ALLOWANCE TO CHILD
IS ROAD TO ECONOMY
Home Economics Expert Says
Way Is to Teach Youth Early
Proper Apportioning
OF an Income.

"The best and most natural way Of
beginning true national economy, wise
spending and wise saving" says
Ruth Wardell, head of the home eco
nomics department of the University
OF Iowa, and who last summer started
a home economics department In a
Cleveland .(Ohio) bank, "is by giving
the children an allowance. The lesson
of properly apportioning an income
thus is early learned"
Miss Wardell favors the allowance
arrangement at very early age, say
at six or seven. 1t may then be>very
small, and out of it the budding citi-
zen may be expected to provide only
school pencils, tablets, etc. The pur-
chase Of school books provides a log
ical next step; little later some per-
sonal belongings. such as shoes, may
be added.

IOvNANS PAID FOR SAVING
More Than $4,000 600 viii Be Turned
Over by v. S. for Thrift in One
Year, II Stamps Are Held.

More than 100000 will be paid to
the people of Iowa by the United
States government for their thrift dur
ing 1918, If the War Savings and
Thrift stamps sold in the state last
year are held by buyers until maturity,
according to an estimate made at state
headquarters of the Iowa War Saw
ings committee.
This sum, representing the interest
on war savings alone, shows the great
Importance of aggregate saving in
small amounts, and as well, the indi-
vidual advantage TO the person who In
vests part of his savings In inter
est-bearing securities.
The people of Iowa in 1913 bought
nearly 100000 Thrift and War Saw
ings stamps, and it IS reasonable to
believe the lessons of thrift and saw
ing learned then will result in a far
greater amount Of sales this year. II
this is the case, the government will
be called to pay to the people of the
state for their thrift in 1919 probably
O good deal more than S10,00000O.

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

A budget is absolutely necessary to
the wise and well-proportioned running
of household. No budget can be made
to fit all families, even families Of
similar size, locality, etc, but the WELL
proportional budget provides fair
financial basis, a 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 way that will permit analyzatiOn
of eXpenditures-for ut least several
people keep accounts. personal and
household, only in a way that balances
cash and shows how it has been gen.
orally expended. A budget should do
better than that.
An exact budget Is difficult to pro-
vide at present, with all living prices
in state of flux but with a prevailing
upward tendency. Figures differ great
ly in various sections of the country,
frequently in various sections Of the
Suhic Dut III StilNtiy
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 8 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-
table income-bearing governmental Sc
curities absolutely necessary with the
kind of incomes noted-as Liberty
Bonds and War Savings Stamps.

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 phase of good citizenship,
give problems of arithmetic in terms Of
thrift stamps. chewing gum, candy
and other things a child buys.
1t Is 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
test cooperation of the school admin
istration in she 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 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 It for them.

BILLIONS FROM THE NICKELS
Ever Stop to Think Of Vast Sums That
Can Be Saved From Small
Amounts?

If every person in the United States
saved nickel in one day it would
mean that at night the people would
be just five million dollars richer And
then suppose the people kept this up
for one month? 1t would mean that
at the end of thirty days they would
have saved one hundred and fifty mil
lion dollars.
Why not keep it up for the rest of
1919? What would be the result? One
billion five hundred million dollars.
Sounds like lot Of work for one little
nickel to do, doesn't 1t, yet there are
scores of industries in the United
States which are paying big dividends
on the little nickels gathered day by
day.
This immense sum II invested In
War Savings Stamps would earn for
the savers approximately sixty-four
million dollars in 1920-the work Of
"old man interest" who never takes
day Off and who is continuously on
the job.
