THRIFT IS PATRIOTISM

Germany forced France to pay an
indemnity of billion dollars after
the Franco-Prussian war.
The French pople in every walk of
life practiced thrift. Every washer
woman, every newsboy, every truck
gardner and digger and ditcher, as
we'll as her noneyed men, great and
small, rushed to the buying of gov
eminent bonds.
Result: In two years, not only was
France free from her hated creditor,
but her people had formed the habit
Of thrift. This so fortified her that
in the war just ended Germany broke
her heart, her bank and her man
hood on the rock foundation finances
Of France.
Because Of her thrift preparation,
France was able to check and hold the
onslaught until the forces of freedom
elsewhere rallied to crush Germany
and make the world proper place for
free peoples to live. .r.
Isn't, this lesson one we of America
should take to our hearts today?
Our government must finish the job
so magnifcently carried to it's present
stage.
To make this possible, the individ-
uals who form that Government must

BY doing this only can we insme

ture prosperity.
We should practice thrift now fm,
two major reasons:
First: To furnish the money uur

After all, and in view of what We
escaped, is our Government requiring

The news has come to the Budget
through Professor Selden that the
death of Mr.. Eikard Austfjord, 10,

information. He mentions having en-

Mr.. Austfjord has been teaching, who

was the cause of Mr.. Austfjord's
death. We hope that the report is a
mistaken one. Mr.. Austfjord finish
