TEACHING OF THRIFT
AN IMPORTANT DUTY

"In the recent war, America gave
about $12,000.0O0,00 for the great
cause-France gave about $24, 100000,
0OO.'' said J. III. Puelicher, Director OF
Sales for the Seventh Federal Reserve
District. "We in this country had not
learned the lesson of saving, as France
had-but in the last year we learned
it. and in many cases, learned it most
effectively.
Our government. with the war say
ings plan. provided means by which
we could be effectively schoOled, both
in thrift and patriotism. The effect
iveness of this lesson is shown by the
fact, that in one. year, the war savings
campaign raised the proportion OF the
population having thrift accounts from
| to Z. to 5 in T. Teachers, parents and
school officers will be interested in
knowing that former Secretary Nc
Adoo, declares that he considers the
educational side of this movement the
important one.
Never was there a greater oppor-
tunity for the teachers of America who
believe that teaching should function
immediately in deeds in the life OF the
child. The treasury department stands
ready to meet all teachers and parents
halfway in the teaching of thrift by
offering the child who has been in.
structed in thrift an opportunity to in
vest his savings Immediately in Wan
Savings Stamps or other convenient
forms of government securities.
THE members of the teaching pro
| fession now realize that they may nc
longer with a clear conscience pass
this responsibility along to someone
| else Teachers and parents realize
also that they must be honest in this
matter and teach thrift by example a!
we'll as by word of mouth. We wan
coming citizens to say i save fol
/ America, my America and me- Th'
time has come to gather the parents II
with the children in war savings sOc1e
ties that the children may have th
support of the parents in this move
ment to foster thrift

CONVENTION WAS
WELL ATTENDED
Delegates From Most of COun
ty's Sunday Schools Attend
Meeting Here

What was perhaps the largest Coun
ty Sunday School Convention ever hel(
III Rusk county, and one as brimful OF
enthusiasm as any ever held in the
state, was held in the local NJ e
church on May 23rd. Friday of last
week.
Delegates of all denominations were
the county. most of the schools being
represented.
County Sunday school officers have
done very creditable work during the
past year. Special mention might be
made Of the work of the County Presi-
dent. Jim VanPatter, of Ingram, and
Il. l.. Beyeridge, of Sheldon, who is the
county secretary.
Special features which added much
to the program were a reading by
Orvia Nichols, solos by Mrs. Calkins
and w. f. Thompson; and a chorus by
the training school glec club.
Delegates were entertained in differ
ent homes of the city and at the hotels.
The modern tendency is to have as
many trained workers in the Sunday
school as possible; and to make the
Sunday school an institution which
aims to reach out from its own doors
through the home-department, cradle
roll, and general community work, so
that in the final analysis the Sunday
school may be found one of the strong
est factors in Christian work, as it
should be- This thought seemed domi-
nant in the talks by local and county
talent. as well as in lectures by the
state workers, Miss Mabel Bailey, and
Mr. Rogers. who were in attendance at
the convention.

My Dear Mr.. Bell We cOngratu-
late you on the splendid way in which
your county, state and district have
finished the Victory Liberty Loan job.
The campaign just closed could not
have been successful if it had not been
for the fine cooperation given by the
newspaper men and the unusually
effective educational campaign carried
on through columns of weekly papers OF
your county and of the entire district.
We appreciate that. this cooperation
was the result of the fine patriotic
spirit of the newspaper men, which has
never failed and which has made the
fraternity such valuable part of our
citizenship during the whole war
period.
We also know that the effective
work in your county would not have
been done if it had not been for your
interest and activity. Your reports to
us of War Loan publicity carried in the
papers of your county have been yalua-
able and have given us Dettef INSIGHT
and kept us in closer touch with the
situation than ever before. Please ac-
cept our thanks and those of the Fed
eral Reserve Bank and the Treasury
Department for the services you have
rendered.
We hope you will continue to be in
terested in government financing prof.

Savings movement, which from now on
will occupy the center of the stage ano
which we believe, if properly conduct
ed, will bring unreasonable benefits t(
the people at large.

DISEASED CATTLE
SOLD in SOUTH
Department of Agriculture Acts
to Prevent Fraud i'm Dis
posing of Infected Cattle

Cattle have been shipped from some
points south which were in advanced
stages of tuberculosis. Agents of the
Department of Agriculture are investi-
eating into the sources of these cattle.
Persons about to buy stock, especially
in sections from which tubercular cat
tie have been shipped are urged to
make full Investigations into the health
of any stock they may purchase.
tuberculosis has been relatively in
frequent among the cattle Of the south
and the Bureau of Animal Industry is
determined that the new dairy COM
munities of that section shall not be
made the dumping ground for diseased
cattle sold by unscrupulOus dealers in
the north.
In one lot of 16 cattle, Is reacted to
the test. and when slaughtered showed
well marked LESSONS of tuberculosis.
Other lots showed conditions almost as
bad The damage done by shipments
of this kind is beyond reckoning, es-
pecially when the depressing effect Of
the fraud on the local dairy industry
is considered.
With Wisconsin the first state in
testing of cattle for tuberculosis, with
scrub bulls being first replaced by bred
for reproduction pure-bred sires, and live
stock interests right on the jump at all
times, the state may well look forward
to benefiting through the buyers being
diverted from it's less progressive
neighbors to districts where they are
assured of healthy cattle-and good
cattle at that.
