NEW TYPE OF SODA
FOUNTAIN INVENTED

Now that the whole country is going
dry, and while soda water is jumping
out of it's swaddling clothes in a really
great, big future, along comes brand
new type of soda fountain, something
that will put the punch into mer-
chants soda water business, and, last
but not least, greatly please his pa
irons.
It's a practical" white soda foun-
tain. that is, having white interior or
working parts, looks clean, is easy to
clean and easy to keep clean.
Many attempts have been made to
produce a soda fountain with white
interionr. by using covering made Of
enameled iron, sheet celluloid, crock
ery-ware, etc., but finally one of the
largest builders of soda water foun-
tains in the whole country, the Walrus
Manufacturing Company, of Decature,
Illinois, has brought out the genuine
article. 1t is called the Walrus
"White-Iceless," very appropriate
name. because it surely is white, and
also it H an iceless apparatus. Even
the dispensing devices that pump the
syrups can be furnished in white fin
ish.
Soda water is the national beverage.
Everybody likes some of the good
things sold at soda fountains. It's
a business that is growing by leaps
and bounds and any merchant who
fortifies himself with Walrus
"White-Iceless," soda fountain will be
paving the way to big business, CON-
bined with the satisfaction that comes
from having highly pleased customers.

One evening when little Mary had

heard her giving thanks. 81 thank

Mary ate away from the family table.

Keep the Children in School

It is fact established by statistics that the
boy who quits school at fourteen gains very little
financially during the next two years, that the
years between fourteen and sixteen, unless they
are spent at school, are lost. Juvenile workers
between fourteen and sixteen are not wanted in
the industries because they have little no man.
ual skill which would appeal to an employer.
To save these two wasted years, the vocation
al and cultural courses in the high schools have
been instituted. Statistics show that every day
spent in school pays the child more than SO. IN
educated laborers earn on the average of $500 a
year for forty years, total Of $4,000 High
school graduates earn on the average of $1,000
year for forty years, total Of $4,000. This
education required twelve years of school of 1870
days each, total of 2,160 days in school. If
every 2,160 days at school add $4,000 to the in
come for life then every day at school adds more
than SO. No child between fourteen and sixteen
years Of age can earn SO day. These figures
which were compiled by metropolitan news
paper are based on statistics five years ago. To-
day Of course, the figures would be much higher.
Will any one, in the light of these figures,
deny that high school education is a farce or a
failure? Must not every keen witted boy and
conscientious parent admit that in the long run it
pays to keep the children in school to obtain that
preparation for life which is Of assistance not
only mentally but also financially?

honesty, industry and frugality are

possesses every one OF these qualities
but frugality. Now we must seek
that.
First, let US be sure that we know
what we are seeking before we be-
gin our quest. Frugality or thrift
means only good management. Sensl

the present but also for the future.

ESSAY ON THRIFT.

Not only did the gallantry of our
American soldiers help win this great
European War, but the thrift of the
American people played one of the
most important parts.
It not only kept it's own massive
army going, but it has helped to feed
and clothe thousands of starving peo
pie in other countries.
Thrift among us was first begun
when our forefathers first came tc
America, for besides liberty this was
one Of the great causes of immigra.
tion, as it didn't count for anything
in the countries Of bondage.
The thrift of our forefathers helped
them gain the great war with Eng.
land, and so gave us our liberty and
freedom.
George Washington, the founder OF
the nation, had his thriftograms for
the nation as well as for his personal
success. Here are some: "Econor
makes happy homes and sound ma
tions. Instill it Deep" Nothing but
harmony, honesty, industry and fru
gality are necessary to make us Q
great and happy nation" Now our
task has been so great in this greei
war, and we have had to lend SO
! much money that thrift means great
deal more now.
We are being taught more about il
than ever before.
Thrift means success and to make
success you have to have system
with everything you spend and see
that you always have some OF your in
come to put in the bank. Let each
member of the family do part OF
the work and encourage them to
be saving, allow the children a fee
for their work and encourage them tc
save it and you will soon see still
more Thrift Stamps sold; they will
grow to be War Savings Stamps.
Just becuse the war is over doesn't
mean that we have to stop conserving
our food, but we must raise all that
is possible, can all the surplus, use
all perishable stuff and save the un'
perishable.
TO be economical doesn't mean moi
to have wholesome pleasure, 'nutrl'
tious food and proper clothing; we
must see that our income is enough
to more than cover our expenses and
have enough for rainy days.
We Americans are naturally e1-
travagant people, but our women are
learning each day to be more saving
and are doing their house work and
all their other work in a more bus1
ness like way.
