Our After War Trade.

From the Springfield (Mass.) Republican.
The business situation calls for q consid-
cradle revision Of Americas ideas of
trade. Those who would hedge the nation
around with tariffs designed to limit
imports az much as possible. must also
be prepared to have the nation limit its
exports coirespondingly. There is no
such thing as being a nation chiefly of
exporters unless We wish to assume a
decidedly Ill adjusted balance of trade
to ship commodities without receiving
value in goods for value delivered.
America, however. need nave no COM
junction about becoming a nation of
raiders. In trade. botn sides are gamers
otherwise there would be no trade.
Trade Is the great life blood Of industry.
between nations as between individuals
and localities. Let US ave moro of It.
Unless . reactionary school Of economies
gets full control. there will be more Of

A BIAS THE POOR HOUSE.
Has Effect of Eliminating Aims Houses.

Poor houses are going out of style. it seems from the report of the super. intendent of hospital for the poor in Massachusetts.
 Until the past year, the inmates of poor houses had steadily increased from year to year. In almost every case of want among these forlorn old people it is> ascertained that their present state could have been avertef if, during their earning years they had learned the principle of thrift.
 Bat for several years, since the ad- vent of the governments savings plan. there has been less and less demand on public institutions of charity. This can be traced directly to the bene1- cial results of campaign for thrift. together with the easy accessibility of government securities bearing splen- did rates of interest. The savings hab- it may be acquired with hardly more effort than that of squandering, if the right incentive is supplied and an of fective means of investment provided, It is proved.

BEWARE THE AFTERMATH.
British Economist Warns That War Time Prosperity VIII Not
 Continue Forever.

The people of the United States are rapidly coming to realize that the worlds need for saving and economy did not end with the war This con tinued necessity for thrift is vigorous y presented and emphasized in a pramphlet written by R. H. Brand, a British economist. and published by the British National War Savings committee. In this pamphlet, called "The Financial and Economic Future" 1" MT. Brand calls attention to the fic- titious character of the apparent pros perity brought about by the war, and warns against the fallacious appear ances of wartime progress.
 We have been enjoying the tenn porary prosperity of spendthrift speeding toward bankruptcy SC says. We have been living easy because we have been living on our capital When we come to live on our income and not on our capital we shall find that the hard lessons of the past apply also to our own days, and that nations as well as individuals can make good only by work and saving"
 The. burdens of saving to put tue world on safe financial and economic basis, MT. Brand declares, eust mb shared according to the ability of in dividuals to bear them, and the great est sacrifices-measured, at any rate, in worldly wealth-must be made by the rich.
 The United States government an ticipated this situation and inaugural ed National Thrift campaign dur ing the war by placing Thrift Stamps and War Savings Stamps before the public. These securities serve a dual purpose-give the government money for the reconstruction period and erect a foundation for individual prosperity.

Friend of Amherst Students.

Prof. David Todd. the astronomer
 who recently took pictures of the to-
 tai eclipse of the sun from an airplane flying from the west coast of Africa, is better known at Amherst college, Amherst, Mass, as "Davey" Todd, the best excuse-maker for the boys in the whole school, and naturally one of the most popular members of the faculty. It is said that he has helped out sev- eral thousand students, with his ex- cuses for them, during the 30 years that he has been "official excuser" at the college.
 One day "Davey" met Mrs. Fitch walking shame-facedly away from the school with her son, who had been ex- pelled. He prevailed upon the moth CT to wait around the campus until he could argue with the board about the boys expulsion. He was successful, and today Amherst points proudly to her playwright son-Clyde Fitch.
 Professor Todd, in addition to hls studies, has also invented improvements for flying ma chimes. He helped Professor Langley with his experiments thirty years ago.

CHAMPS, A TOWN IN LAFAYETTE COUNTY, SELLS $s,0oo
 IN ONE DAY.
S6oOo SOLD TO ONE FAMILY
Hereafter Each County Record Will Appear Month, in Savings
 Herald.

Stamps, Arkansas has an affinity That affinity is War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certificates.
 Stamps is a town of 2,300 popula- tion in Lafayette county, in the ex- treme southwest corner of Arkansas. The county has population of 13,- 741.
 One day during the latter part of August, F. A. Ramsey, one of the field workers under Moorehead Wright. state director for Arkansas. visited Stamps and in one day sold $6,000 worth of the new Treasury Savings Certificates. One family took six of the $1.000 Certificates, as follows: Robert F., Mrs. Ella, William T.. Alma V. and Mary O. Buchanan. O. L. Nc Cabe, president of the Bodcow Bank, was another purchaser, as was Mrs. Omah Albaugh.
 When one stops to do a little calcu- lation 1t will be seen that MT. Ram sey, in one day. achieved $S.47 per capita sale for the city of Stamps. and for the entire county he had in one day obtained per capita sale of 5s cents.
 This does not begin to tell of the participation of Stamps or Lafayette county in the Thrift campaign inaugu- rated by the United States Treasury Department It merely records what one salesman did in one day.
 Beginning with the next issue of the Qav{nra HaraJd tho racord If each county in Missouri. Arkansas and Ken tucky will be tabulated and printed. The record thus established by Lafay- cite county is certain to be good. In many other counties, in all of the states, some of the counties will have a most enviable standing. Unfortun- ately, some of the counties have failed to grasp the opportunity offered, and the sales have been DO scant ss tc be almost nil.
 Every person who takes an interest in the standing of his community should therefore see that the Bales during September increase to the ut. most SO as to give his community . high standing in this movement that has tho endorsement of the fnanciere everywhere and which has been urged by the United States Treasury off. cials.
 Counties in the Eighth District are going to have to put new energy into the campaign if they arc to remain in competition with counties in some of the other states.
The Prescott daily news., 1919-09-12

Texas just now is making a remark ably good showing. German, Tex, re, ports the sale of s71, 200 worth of the new Treasury Savings Certificates inl g brief campaign. Desdemona. Tex. bought s38,00O worth of the CertiA, cates and advises that before Septem-i Der 15, $25.000 would be added. One of the banks in Annahuac, Chambers country, has bought $75.000 worth of the Certificates for resale. Liberty county, Tex, with a quota of $65, ,0O0, has already exceeded it's quota.
