 Twenty miles distant, lovable and loving Muriel Lane looked out upon a bleak, white expanse, surrounding the old farm home. Her six little brothers and sisters nestled about her.

She took a chair at the win dow and began telling them stories Finally she leaned closer to the pane and strained her glance. A speck of luster held her vision until it had re- solved itself into mingled colors of red, white and blue.

 Forth from the amazing air vehicle stepped form familiar to the wonder eyed children-the Santa Claus of last year with frosted beard and a bulging bag of gifts on his back.
 And only the two older children ever guessed the identity of this grand Kriss Kringle on wings. And, oh the marvellous gifts he had for them all! And Boyd drew Muriel behind a door and kissed her, and only old Grandfather Lane, going up the stairs to his bed, witnessed the event, and chuckled serene1y.

SAVING OF MONEY
 @ IS POSSIBLE
.Dr. Andrews Gives His Rules For Thrift

That it Is possible for one to save money despite present high prices is brought out by Dr. Benjamin R. Andrews, vice director of the Say. ings Division, who as an aid to help ing people save money advises them to follow these four rules.
 T will earn all can by produc- ing all that I can. I will spend the money intelligently and wisely. I will save part of all the money I receive when I receive it. I must inVest safely"
 Dr. Andrews in speaking on the subject of wise investments says that the people of America waste one half billion dollars a year by loss from fraudulent investments. He brings out the fact that the money of thrifty people which is deposited in such safe investment >as Thrift Stamps, War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certificates is the basis for all expansion in govern ment business.

LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT
By Marshall Field

If you want to succeed, save.
 This is true, not so much because of the value of the money which the young man accumulates, but because of the infinitely greater value of the system and organization which tEe practice of saving introduces in his life.
 This result of the saving habit is not generally nor properly appre- ciated. I consider it to be almost the greatest element in making for a young mans success.
 In the first place, it creates deter imitation.
 This is at the start Then 1t de- ve1ps steady purpose, then sustained energy.
 Soon it produces alert, discrimi- hating intelligence. Better and bet ter returns follow up his industry, ability and judgment and his capital is now steadily increasing.
 Soon he is secure-and that com paratively early in life; and each day widens the gulf between him and incompetence and it's Invaluable companion, improvidence.
 This is the real foundation of the structure of success. Each of it's supports, it will invariably be found, rests upon a foundation of an early dollar saved.

 Mr. Turkey walked proudly about, as though some creatures really hadn't enough brains to bother talking to, but soon great noise was heard.
 The pigs were all squealing and gruntfng.
 "It is the time of the year when ev- eryone should give me presents" squealed Pinky Pig.
 Everyone should give me presents. That Is what Christmas means" said Porky Pig.
 ''They should all give them to me-" said Brother Bacon, "or you pigs don't know the spirit of Christmas giving"
 ''You don't know 1t yourself" said Miss Ham. "Christmas is coming. I'm all ready for presents"
 But the other animals sighed and shook their heads.
 Pigs don't even forget they are pigs during the Christmas season."
