 IF GOVERNMENT
SERIES OF WAR SAVINGS soci. ETiEs SPONSORED BY THE
 TREASURY DEPARTMENT.
THRIFT IS THE KEYNOTE
Uncle Sam Wants Each individual to Have . Nest Egg With Which to Make a Good Start
 In Life.

Government officials at Washington are watching with no little interest the growth of series of societies that are springtng up all over the United States, and that have already attained a membership that reaches well up into the millions.
 Treasury Department officials are particularly interested in this move. ment. as it is fostered by that depart. ment, and as soon as a society is formed the names of the president, secretary and each individual member are placed in the treasury departm ent archiw .
 These societies are War Savings Societies, and the motive of each so- ciety is Thrift
 At conference in Washington re gently, which was attended by L. A. Wilson, of St. Louis, federal director of the War Savings Organization for the Eighth Federal Reserve District, the War Savings movement was re- viewed and plans were formulated for the further extension of the societies.
 Trained organizers are visiting sec- tons of Missouri, Arkansas and Kea- lucky. aiding the local workers with the formation of the local organtza- tons. The responses have been mar velously numerous, and at the present rate of increase there will scarcely be a county or city in the Eighth Dts. trict by January 1 that does not pos sess one or more of these societies.
 The government, in favoring these organizations, has not only' in view the replenishing of the U. s. treasury through the sale of Thrift and War to cause each individual member to learn the value to himself of being thrifty.
 The government Is not seeking to divert capital from legitimate com mercial enterprises. It does not want to tie up vast sums. It is the person who has never saved systematically that 1t is most anxious to reach. He can put aside the small amounts that he has been accustomed to spepl, and this drawing four per cent compound ed quarterly will in an incredibly short time grow into large enough sum to make the first payment on a home, or to provide sum with which one may make a permanent invest ment.
 The intention of the government is manifest from the fact that it will not permit any one person to hold more than s1.000 in the baby bonds in any one series.

HER FIRST REAL MONEY.
Farmers Wife Rejoices Over Chance to Buy War Savings
 Stamps.

This card represents my first real money" recently said farmers wife, with an odd look of mingled pride. dep recation and something like triumph.
 At home, as a girl, l had no money. Mother bought things for us with what ever money father gave her. Since I've been married it's been much the same. I've got things at the town stores and Jim's paid the bills for them. Even my egg and butter money has gone, as rule, to help with the household upkeep-turned in on the grocery bill usually. I've never seemed able to hold on to a penny.
 But when the War Savings Stamps came along I said to myself: Here's your chance, Mary and now l buy War Savings Stamps regularly, take 'em in change as regularly as I sell chickens or cash the creamery check at the bank I've filled several cards already, and I can tell you l gloat over 'emi When these War Savings Stamps mature, I'll have real money of my own!"

Seemed in Distress.

One Saturday morning Kefmit's mother was baking pies. She asked Kermit to go open the oven door and see if the pies were getting too brown. As 1t happened the oven was quite hot and the juice was bubbling out of the top of the pies while the crust was heaving up and down. Kermit opened the oven door and said: No, they're not too brown, but they're breathin' awful hard"

TRADE CONDITIONS.

NEW YORK, November s.-Brad-
streets review of trade says:
THE trade and industrial effects OF
the coal strike in it's early stages re-
senble very much those of its unsuc-
cessfuI predecessor in the steel industry.
Actual effects upon distribution are, ex-
cent in purely coal mining regions, al
most negligible. Concern verging upon
uneasiness Is expressed. whereas in
some cases. supplies of coal for future
manufacturing needs are small. but re-
ports from large consuming centers
point to thirty to sixty days supplies
of fuel being available. and confidence
is expressed that the strike will end
before the extreme pinch comes.
1.-The heartening effect upon business
men of the strong stand taken by the
government to help order and to insure
the non-un!on mines. which employ a
third of the soft coal miners, running,
and the results of the Massachusetts
election cannot be underestimate. 1t
is felt that the tide has definitely turned
in labor matters. and this view is but
tressed by the failure of the steel and
longshormen's strikes. while many small
err labor troubles have also disappeared.
Commerce at the port of New York
has been actively resumed, and the
tie-ups at New Orleans and San Fran
cisco are expected to shortly disap-
pear

Great Britain In China Is living proof
that their long-public policy is the
only course that will work out success
fully in China
Has Not Struck Stride.
I'm the matter of credits and other
financial arrangements peculiar to
trading with China the United States
has not yet struck it's stride. Perma-
nent success in this field is dependent
largely upon our willingness and
ability to extend credits to merchants
and manufacturers; frequently these
credits are of such a. nature that the
moral standing of the buyer forms the
only collateral. but through the work
ines of the compradore system or
through the information at the COM
mand Of the seller the risk is reduced
to a minimum; but in any event the
standard Of Chinese business morality
is high. The extension of credit to
Chinese purchasers will have to arise
out of the resources of American ex-
porters per Sc, or from the facilities
which large banking institutions or
financial organizations in the United
States are willing to extend. The
strength of British trade in the Orient
is a result, in large part. OF the BACK
ing which British firms are enabled TO
secure from British banks.
England Knows HOW.
'Of course, England has had
long experience in this sort Of thing,
but we ought to capitalize on this
experience and realize that IL we are
not willing and able 10 extenu 10
Tbinese merchants and manufacturers
sufficient credit for them to carry on
their business, purchases of American
goods in China will never reach any
great total. The Foreign Credit
Corporation. which was recently or
ranized in New York. and other Amer
in,n ;n.t;tutions OF like character
, HSou,d 'n prove Of great value in trade
with china because Of the facilities
the nossess TO render aid to Ameri-
can exporters and importers.
