CHILDREN, THRIFT AND
PATRIOTISM.

In summing up the total of War Saw
ings Stamps activity in 1918. some
remarkable records made by children
in the schools are shown. This means.
not only a vast amount of present
help to the Government, but snug sums
of money for the children themselves
when the stamps reach maturity. But
the prospect of financial gain, excellent
as it may be, is but small asset when
compared with the practical training
in thrift and the lessons in genuine pa
| triotism which the young folks have
received.
Parents have been accused, often
justly, of oyer-indulging the children.
and it is true that many children grow
to maturity with no conception of the
| value Of money until forced to earn it
| for themselves. Even then they are
/ ignorant as to how to apportion their
income, because. untaught, and the
thought of contributing ia the general
j welfare does not enter into such plan.

HOW MOVITZ HELPED WIN
THE WAR.

MovitZ is a name which indicates
that the diminutive individual who
bears it first saw the light in a land
which was ruled by an autocratic
car, but Movitz is a loyal American
now and eagerly doing his part to hold
aloft the torch of liberty. He goes to
school in big New England city, and
one day he handed in the following
composition to his teacher:
"One day in August my eldest
brother came in the house with book
in his hand. He had signed my name
and had given me Thrift Stamp to
start with for helping him sell papers
Sunday l read in the papers of the
German mustard gas and how many
American soldiers had been gassed
then made up my mind to try to run
errands and buy Thrift Stamps with
what | earned The Germans launch
ed their last great drive when | had
FIVE Thrift Stamps.
Zone day after we had sold papers
for two hours / fell down and hurt my
ankle and thought | would not be
able to sell papers the next week. But
was very glad when / could rur
once again and did not miss ms
weekly stamp. 1t was but two more
weeks when | had fourteen stamps
and two more were needed to make
War Savings Stamp. Here is how
earned them in one week Monday
+ j had earned ten cents, and it took til
Thursday until ! earned five more
cents
Sunday we had ten papers we
could not sell. My brother had gone
into a house to sell a paper when
man came up to me and asked m,
what had. told him and he handet
me the price and took the papers
Just as soon as my brother came VI
he was SO glad that he said he woul,
put up my pay and give me what
needed to buy the Thrift Stamps /
was just one month before the emf
Of the war!"

A REAL PATRIOT.

Uncle Sans War Saving and
Thrift Stamps are better than any
stock in the world" wrote boy in the
eighth grade of a certain school in a
big New England city while the stock
is likely to drop and ruin the man who
owns that stock, Uncle Sans stamps
never fall but gain steadily. They
are better than any bank, for the banks
are liable to fail while the stamps
never fail.
Here are some ways for people to
save. For adults: stop buying trash
that is no good for any one; stop going
to foolish places as moving pictures
and theatres unless some historic play
is at that theatre or picture house. Eat
only nutritious food.
For children: girls can earn money
by doing sewing. washing dishes, and
doing other domestic works.
For boys: boys can earn money in
a dozen different ways Here are 4
few. Shoveling snow, sitting ashes,
doing domestic work, doing odd jobs
running errands, and putting ashes on
| slippery sidewalks.
| Nov here are a dozen different
ways to make money for. adults and
| children. Being thrifty is one OF the
best habits. that any man. woman OF
