When we save money let US not

alone on our bank books or our

an economic virtue and it docs not
alone spell the difference between
comfort and want. The thrifty
man is happy not alone because he
is providing for his old days or for
the years of unemployment, but in
far greater degree he is happy be-
cause he knows that he has fostered
a strength of character that is equal
to any temptation that the future
may bring.
He is sure of himself. He knows
his own strength. He faces the
future without fear. He knows
that he will never be 4 failure be-
cause he has shown himself to be
the master of his own 7ctionA
In these respects does thrift prove
itself of the greatest value to any
man or any woman.

ito your home town. Get a JOB. Visit
the bank every Saturday evening and
deposit small amount Of your weeks
wages. Thus you will gain the conf.

in general. Get better job as soon az
you can. Continue your weekly visits.
In time you'll find yourself universally

System Brings ResuIts.

It's not necessary to become q re.
cluse to gain fitness. The very fact
that you grow makes present tasks
easy. That gives additional time that
can be applied in still greater attain.
ments. Self-mastery begets self-conf-
dence that reacts again in greater
self-mastery. And that leads to the
mastery Of other things. Each new
attainment helps to make work easier.
The wise man knows he must have
recreation and diversion so he does
not become grind. He just system
atizes his time and marshals his re-
sources in such a way as to startle
the careless worker. The result is
continued growth in efficiency. Every
day brings added satisfaction, for
there is Joy in achievement.--Ex-
change.
