BENJAMIN FRANKLIN's BIRTHDAY
Was Philosopher, Statesman, Patriot
and Deputy Postmaster General-First
American Exponent OF Thrift.

Liz SpCCIdI observance Oh bEn1d01ln
Franklin's 213th. birthday on January
II recalls the fact that besides being a
great writer, PHILOSOPHER, scientist.
statesman and patriot, Franklin was at
one time postmaster a. P%hiladelphia. and
later became Deputy Postmaster General
for the colonies.
By a singular coincidence. Just as the
pOstmasters of today are inseparably as
ISOLATED with the War-Saving8 movement.
franklin has come TO typify the ideal OF
that movement. Among his many illus
trlOus achievements, his teachings and
shining example Of thrift stand out most
conspicuously. The likeness Of this pi0-
neer exponent Of thrift has been chosen
by the United States Treasury to adorn
the 1919 War-Savings Stamps, kaown as
the Franklin Issue.
Thrift will therefore be The preGomina
ting note in the celebration Of his birth
day. The $50, 900 War Savings Societies
and other organizations throughout the
country ave prepared programs stress
ing the |soundness of his thrift PRINCIPLES
for the meetings on that day. Children
will lily kites-Franklin having made his.
famous discovery regarding electricity in
that Way-bearing such slogans as Save
and Serve, Buy w. S. s., etc.
~Franklln)s first connection with the
post office was in 1877, when he was 0
pointed postmaster of Philadelphia bv
Colonel S~p0ttsWood, The Postmaster Gen
eraI. He was then &c years old. His ap-
polntment was due to the careiassness of
his predecessor in rendering accounts to
the Postmaster General. Franklin took
the lesson much to heart and made the
point to recommend to other young men
'tha5 they should always render accounts
and make remittances with great clear
ness and punctuality."
In 1853 Franklin, jointly with William
Hunter, was made Postmaster General.
u to that time the office had brought no
revenue to England. Not long after
tranklins incumbency it paid nm and
Hunter the six hundred pounds thew were
allowed from the profits, and Welded
three times as much to England as the
post office Of Ireland.
Franklin attributed his successes pri-
marlly to his ability to save. Many Of
his Ideas on thrift are embodied in the
shreWd sayings which appeared in Poor
Rlchard's Almanac, the almanac being
the most popular form Of publication in
those days.
The need for thrift is greater today.
perhaps, than at any other period in our
history. Billions Of dollars are needed
