WAYS OF EARNING MONEY
DURING SUMMER VACATION
Many Opportunities Open to Children
Who Wish to Encourage Habits
of Thrift and Saving.

A great many questions about how
children may earn money in order to
purchase Thrift and War Savings
Stamps during the summer vacation
period have come into the War Loan
Organization at Richmond, and it is
to answer these inquiries that the
present article has been prepared.
The suburban or country child prob
ably has the best opportunities for
making money, though selling papers
and magazines, running errands and
doing chores offer several ways for
the city child to earn the where!with-
all for Thrift Stamps.
In the country there Is first OF all
tie garden, and at this time growing
food stutfs should receive special at
tention. It Is not too late to plant fall
crops which may be marketed with
profit. Lettuce and radishes are
easily grown and always find good
markets, especially in the late sum-
mer and fall. There will probably be
more Of some kinds Of vegetables in
the garden than can be eaten or can
ned. These should be sold.
On almost every farm there is time
when much Of the fruit ripens at
once, and the problem Of disposing OF
It arises. Some Of It is eaten, some
preserved. A quantity Of it not in
frequently rots. This should be sold
IL there is a market near enough, but
IL such Is not the case the children
can put it up and sell the canned stun
, in the fall.
Pigs, chickens, turkeys or rabbits
are easily raised in the summer vaca>
tion, and all Of them will bring In
large returns for the time and labor.
Berry picking is another way OF max
ing money that children should enjoy,
and this year there is plentiful
crop.
Many mothers and fathers will be
glad to pay the children for taking
care of the yard, cutting wood, run
ming eSrands or doing daily chores.
In fact there are so many ways OF
earning money during the summer
that the list might be indefinitely
heightened But Of course the object
of any and all Of these ways is not
simply to make money, but to make
and save money; in other words,
enough to buy War Savings Stamps
which will bring in four per cent in
terest, compounded quarterly.
You can do this, every boy and girl
In this big country.

JAPAN TO MODIFY KOREAN RULE.
So Predicts Or. S. e. Haoer, Is Years
a Southern Methodist Mission
ary In The Orient.

Nashville, Tenn-That Japan win
moderate her rule in Korea is the pre-
diction Of DR.. S. T. Hager, recently
returned missionary Of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South. DR.. Haser
has spent more than quarter Of
century IN. japan doing religious work.
Japan Is learning that her success
In giving good government to Korea
Is fraught with difficulties, and that
tolerance and good will must take the
place of harsh and severe methods.
1.-THE military leaders aim mainly at
making their rule thorough and perma-
uent, and naturally there Is great
temptation to the man Of the sword
to make his rule severe.
But democratic ideas are growing
In Japan. and more temperate treat
ment OF the subject race will come
about"
DR.. Hager says the Christian mis-
sionaries in the Orient are elated at
the success of the Centenary move
ment through which the church raised
$50, ,OC0 100000 for missionary work In
all lands.
Millions of this will be spent In the
Orient. Hundreds Of new missionaries
will Ns GENT and there will be a great
advance movement in medical cork,
education and evangelism. -

TELLS HOW OTHER
PEOPLE GET AHEAD
Pamphlet Issued by U. 8. Treasury
Answers Question "fow Can
Save Money"

AS an answer to the question, How
Can I Save Money!" the Savings Di.
vision Of the Treasury Department has
compiled an interesting and helpful
pamphlet entitled How Other le1pIs
Get Ahead"
For individuals and families whose
i-comes are less than $4,000 year
this pamphlet offers a number Of en-.
tightening suggestions as. to the dis
bursement Of incomes Of various
amounts from SIS week upward. Not
only does the material furnish a ready
answer to the problem of e1psnsesd
but 1t affords an authentic source Of
information as to living costs. The
figures were compiled from records of
official government investigations into
the several subjects and may be rel
garded as up to date and accurate.
This material makes possible al
new attack In the moveme Mt To make
thrift national characteristic and to
foster the habit of Save First-Spond
Afterward." II will interest people I'M
saving more money by showing chem
how much other people find it possible
to save and also by showing them how
they can cut down the cost OF living
comparing their costs with average
costs at the same income.
The Savings Division suggests that
an excellent way to drive home thel
truths of the budget system is to have
the schedules discussed at school and
taken home by the children for con-
sideration by the families. Another
method Is to organize house-to-house
canvass through committees OF wo
men who will bring the budgets to
the attention Of families and secure
their agreement to study their own
situation.
Saving and spending budgets have
been prepared to meet lo2al condi.
tions at. a number Of points, and much
interest in the application Of the bud
gets to the campaign is being iSant
tested in sections Of the country
where the National Thrift Campaign
Is being carried out successfully.

BEN FRANKLIN EARLY
LEARNED FRUGALITY
Great American Examplar of Thrift
Knew Value of Regular and Sys-
tematic Saving For Future.

Thrift is not stinginess. In fact 1t Is
more often than not that the thrifty
man is the one who is truly generous.
Benjamin Franklin, our national ex-
emplar of thrift, was, from boyhood
up, always liberal and unselflsh. Rene
Bache, his great-grear-great grand.
son, gives an instance OF this charac.
teristic of his ancestor in stccy he
tells:
"The price of bread two centuries
ago was a penny loaf. Thus 1t hap.
pened that Benjamin Franklin, boy
of seventeen, on arriving in oEiladel'
phia, was able to buy three loaves for
three-pence; and with them he walked
up Market Street from the wharf,
holding one under each arm and eat.
ing the third. An hour later he gave
two of them to woman and her
child who had been fellow voyagers
up the Delaware"
Rene Bache goes on to say OF
Franklin: Where his own expendi.
lures were concerned he was always
frugal, saving what he could out OF
his wages as printer, while his fei.
low-workers spent theirs as fast as
they got them. or faster. In this way
It came about that, while a mere
youngster in a printing office, he lent
them money every week.
Though the earnings Of most OF
them were greater than his, he was
capitalist. BY the middle OF each
week they were penniless, and came to
him for loans to carry them over until
PAYDAY. He would accept no interest,
but each Saturday, on getting their
money they gave back to him what
they borrowed-only to repeat the
borrowing a day or two later"
The secret Of Franklin's success
was systematic and persistent saving,
from the time he first began to earn
money. And always having savings
fund he was ever ready to grasp his
opportunities-those Of lending a
helping hand as we'll as those OF self
betterment.
Let Benjamin Franklin be your cx'
amlpar-start saving today. Thrift
Stamps are an easy beginning and
pave the way to a certain future.

LEPERS SET SpETNDID
EXAMPLE IN SAVINGS
Colony Of Unfortunates In FarawaJ
Hawaii Buys War SAVINGS Stamps
At $62 Per Capita.

Recent reports from Honolulu con
tain an interesting and unusual les
son in thrift which may be considered
a record for the states to attempt
Sales Of War Savings and Thrift
Stamps among the inmates OF the PEN
ikese Island Leper Colony during July
amounted to $62 per capita. Alto
gether 80 purchasers Of these securi1
ties took a total Of 1884 Of stamps.
When 1t Is considered that this
amount is far more than the per CAPT
ia quota for the United States 1t Is
that the optimism OF these
lepers, despite their station in life, II
little less than remarkable.
Up to date the total sales OF War
Savings and Thrift Stamps in Hawaii
is more than 100000, or more than
1920, 900 in excess Of its quota"
