Would you like to know where that
five-dollar bill that was in your purse
yesterday went? Would you like to
know why your last months allow
ance did not hold out so you could
have the new hat you wanted and

know just how much money you
spend year on food?
Of course, every housewife would
like to know. Why don't you find
out? Gust wondering will never
tell you facts. A business man does
not "just wonder" whether his
business is paying or not. His books
tell him. But you say since your
books would show money being spent
and never money being. made, you
wouldn't have the satisfaction the
business man realizes at the end of
the year. You are dealing with
much more satisfying results than
the business man. You are fac

whether you are getting value receiv-
ed for the energy and money expend-
ed. Is that important?
Are the questions pertinent that
you ask yourself concerning the
amount of money it costs you to live,
the amount you spend on essentials,
and the amount you spend on things
you would be better without? If they
are, then it is important and neces-
sary that you keep account of the
money spent, in order that those
questions can be answered.
Accounts Must Be Accurate.
Accounts are of practically no
value if they are not accurate. L
you are not willing to put down
everything for which you spend, if
you do not intend to spend little
time and thought on the subject OF
accounts, do not start; for, like
everything else worth while, it re-
quires energy and thought.
Keeping accounts is a peculiar type
Of burden. If done correctly, it les
sens other burdens. In keeping ac~
counts, if you know the questions
you want answered the time you
spend in the daily routine is sure to
be decreased.
How will you go about keeping
your accounts? Not by haphazard
method nor yet one with too much
detail, for either evil will make them
lose their intreset and value long be-
fore you can expect results.
Three Plans Suggested.
Three plans of keeping accounts
are commonly suggested by econo-
mists, ANY one of them will work
out successfully, according to home
economics specialists of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
The first has the advantage of taking
little thought or time when accounts
are entered, but on the other hand it
does require more time on the day of
reckoning at the end of the month.
The second requires a little more
time in the daily setting down, but is
more logical and more business-like
and requires much less time at the
end of the month.
This will be easy to total at the enl
of the week, month or year, and thus
will give total expenditures, but will
not tell you at glance in what line
you should economic or answer the
question, "How much did | spend
this year on clothes?" A summary
may be made, however, in which each
item is entered in its proper column
at the end of each month or at the
year,
Classifying AT Entry.
The second method includes classifi-
cation as the item is put down. 1t
requires larger book, such as an or
dlnary account book, so that all the
group headings may be across the two
pages facing each other. For the fol-
lowing months items, the tops of the
next pages may be cut off so the
headings on the first page may be
used again.
Farmers Bulletin 964, issued by
the United States Department Of
Agriculture, suggests a grouping of
expenditures which is logical vet not
cumbersome in its detail. After YOU
have kept your accounts for time
you will perhaps originate some other
classification which may satisfy your
needs more fully. This is a suggest
i've outline, however, that bears
study and viii aid in drawing up
your other plan.

A. b. EATON WAR SAVINGS
DIREG TOR FOR IDAHO

James X. Lynch. Governor Of the
Twelfth Federal Reserve District. has
just announced the appointment OF
Allen h. Eaton of Boise. as State Di
rector of War Savings for the STATE
of Idaho. Mr. Eaton was executive
SECRETARY of the War Savings Com
mittee Tor Idaho with Ex-Governor
James H. HaWley as Director. After
the resignation of Mr. Hawley in thC
middle of the year MFR Eaton was IL
active charge of the War Savings
headquarters.
Mr.. Eaton. in commenting on the
War Savings plan for the War Saw
ings work for Idaho for this year,
SAYS: Il am fully aware of the diff
culties in connection with the war n
nance work at the present time With
the war over there is a marked ten
dency on the part of the people in
general to feel that they have al
ready done their part. and that moth
ing more is expected of them This
attitude is wrong and entirely illog-
ical, and yet it constitutes one of the
important factors that must be taken
{ into consideration. Did you eyer stop
I TO think of the situation in this way:
D
serious illness in your family, but
! that after all OF the strain and wor-
ry the members of the family had for
| tunately recovered. You would be re
\ lieved and delighted and would thank
God for your good fortune. You
would not, however, make the mis-
take of saying that your responsible
tiles were ended, for you would still
have many OF the bills to pay and
would have to provide for the neces-
sary period of convalescence before
you would get back on to the old nor.
NAL basis once more. Our national
situation is an exact parallel and il
ought not to be very difficult for any
intelligent person to understand just
why this is so.
We are going to try to do Idaho'i
part in the War Savings campaign
for this year without special drives
and we hope to have the money pu
into War Savings Stamps represent
the actual and consistent saving o.
what otherwise would be wasted. 1
the people OF the state respond as
am sure they will, there will be nj
need for resorting to the special high
pressure drive method However
] Idaho has pledged herself to do he
part and II is only just and fair tina
she should. Idaho is not accustomed
to be classed with the incompetent
and failures in any respect, and 1t i
certain that she will not be so classeC
in work which is both patriots
one and one of great benefit to her

The Short Line has entered into
a contract with the Gum Supply com

shipment was made on the March

ira gang on this railroad, for the
purpose OF supplying department en-
pIOyes with the means of securing
their groceries and other supplies
with the least Inconvenience and at
the lowest cost consistent with mar
ket conditions. This arrangement
will permit of foremen securing their
own personal supplies and also for
the furnishing of supplies to men in
their gangs on a monthly deduction
basis, thereby eliminating the present
unsatisfactory arrangement of fore
men guaranteeing accounts at local
stores, and while there is no restric-
ton against employees patronizing To-
cal stores on a cash basis or securing
credit on their own responsibility, 1t
will not be permissible for foremen
to make any such arrangements for
their men and no deduction orders
will be accepted in favor of outside
stores.
1.-THE Gum Supply company is in
position to furnish groceries and dry
goods OF all descriptions and of any
make or brand required, and 1t will
be necessary for foremen to specify
on their order list just what is need

After installation of initial stock,
foremen will order each month just
what is required to keep up their
stock to offer desirable assortment.
Orders will be shipped on supply

Why Colds are DANGEROUS,

You are often told to beware OF a
cold, but why? We will tell you:
Every cold weakens the lungs. lowers
the vitality and paves the way for the
more serious diseases. People who
contract pneumonia first take cold.
The longer a cold hangs on. the
greater the danger, especially from
the germ diseases, as a cold prepares
the system for the reception and de-
Velopment OF the germs of consump-
ton, diphtheria, scarlet fever and
whooping cough. The quicker you
get rid OF your cold. the less the
danger OF contracting one of these
diseases. Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy has a great reputation as a cure
for colds and can be depended upon

with capital and labor at daggers
drawn; with soldiers on guard here
and there to protect life and property
and with unrest widely prevailing.
1t is not the America they expected
to see. 1t is not the America that
should have been presented to them
1t is not the America we can take the
greatest pride in showing to men who
have heard so much about us.
Now, of all times, America should

home demands are great, and the out
side world is looking to us for much
assistance. Our competitors for world
trade are getting into action. If we
are to achieve what we have in mind
as to trade we must get into action.
And yet production is crippled here,
brought to dead halt there, and
threatened with assault yonder. Bust
ness of all kinds is nervous. The most
experienced men of affairs do not see
their way clearly.

where, despite our temporary trou-
