HAPPY WORKMEN
MADE BY THRIFT
Group Saving Has Proved
Highly Profitable to Thous-
ands of Employees of Sanely
Managed Concerns.

Every business is either thrifty or
unthrlfty. If thrift governs, then
tnere will be accurate knowledge of
costs, sound finance, far-seeing policy.
the best use of labor and materials
With intelligent creation of money
surplus to meet emergencies. II un-
lnTiIty, the concern is bound for
bankruptcy, which will arrive sooner
or later.
Ihrlft goes far beyond the execu-
tive Office, and SO does lack of it. A
thrlft1ly. managed business will have
steady, skillful employees, working in
pleasant surroundings, with every ad.
vantage in the way of equipment, and
every advantage in earning power.
The unthrifty usiness is too familiar.
1t attracts chiefly the driftwood among
workers. Unpleasant surroundings
and poor equipment make work drudg-
cry. Wages are below good stand
ifds, and the year is usually marked
by periods Of idleness, if not Labor
troubles.
thrifty managers have learned in
recent years that thrift facilities ex-
tended to their employees are part of
general thrift in management. The
employee must set aside his surplus.
too. He is more than willing to save
if ne is the kind of man who values a
Job with a thrifty concern But it
has not always been easy for him to
put his weekly savings in a secure
place. Savings institutions may be
far from the pay window. Employers
have overcome this handicap in many
cases by accepting deposits to be
transferred to bank, by selling Sc
curities in their own business to en-
ployees on the installment plan, and
in other ways. They have also taken
pains to see that employees are not
victimized by loan sharks or blue-sky
promoters.
Since the Thrift Stamp and War
Savings Stamps came into existence
there has been wide development Of
this thrift movement for employees,
as part. Of the management of thrifty
business. Employers know that thrift
decreases labor turnover and also in
creases output. The worker who
saves is not worried by debts He
thinks well enough of his job to set
tie in the community, buy a home,
raise a family.
War Savings Stamps offer the best
medium for group savings in business
organizations Thousands Of savings
clubs or societies formed during the
war to help finance the government
have been found so valuable that
thousands more will be organized -.
best proof Of the health, stabilit and
usefulness of any industry is its
hearty teamwork with the Treasury
Department in organizing savings So
cieties for the regular purchase of
Thrift and War Savings Stamps.

C0WAR1S..

lne quarterly Meeting of the
Methodist church, South, convened
at the Johns Creek Methodist
church, Saturday and Sunday April
the 18th and Goth.
The favorable weather made it
possible for large crowd of people
to be present and almost every place
IN the county was represented. The
church house was crowded during
the entire services and no doubt
the audience was the largest that
has assembled at Johns Creek for
quite awile.
The services began at 1000 A. NJ.
Saturday. There were only two
preachers present: Rev. John H,
bradley, of Canton, presiding elder,
and Rev. R. L. Foster, of Cullowhee
pastor of the church at Johns Cheek.
An eloquent sermon was delivered
Saturday at HOO A. NJ, bYs Re.
Bradley. An intermission Of one
hour was then given. Dinner was
served ON the grounds, after which
tne people re-asSembled for the
evening services. Thus, the entire
day was devoted to the work.
Sunday morning gave signs of
oelng a beautiful day; so the people
Hooked III at an early hour. Sunday
School was held at 1000 o'cL,ck
almost every one pdl anticipating in
the work. 1ne services were then
turned over to Rev. Bradley and
congregation enjoyed most inter
estlng sermon. The Sacrament was
partaken OF as the last feature and
lne congregation was adjourned
We feel that the people were all
greatly benefited by the two davs'
meeting. 1t gave them General

that none of us are aroused to q
realization of our dutise as often as

With TYPHOID FEVER.

with the appearance of the beau

an increase in the number of flies

It's beauties that we forget the dan

The warmth of spring multiplies
disease germs and matches the eeds
OF flies, which multiply very rapidly
and soon one germ OF one fly makes
millions. Flies select filth for their
breeding places, and often filth in
which the diarrheal and typhoid
fever germs live, for instance, hui
man filth. When the flies are large
enough, they fly away from their
breeding places, carrying with them
into the houses, filth laden with dis
ease germs. The filth is deposited on
the bread, in the milk, or where
ever the flies alight. Flies have fill

then on your bread. Thew ply be-
