Savings societies will make the day a
special one. In these and many other
ways the nation will join in paying
gigantic tribute to Benjamin Frank

pre-war MASTERS, became notable saw
ers under wars pressure Matchmaking
this newly acquired thrift habit is the
task undertaken by the United States
treasury. Wise buying, sane saving
and sane investment are the watch
words of the 1919 thrift program.
In Franklin's day the almanac was
one of the most popular forms of lit
erature. For years Franklin himself
was the author OF an almanac bear
ing the signature of Richard Saund-
ers, popularity known as Poor Rich
ard" Many of Franklin's trite say
ings are as applicable now as then.
Money can beget money, and its
offspring can beget more, and so on"
said Poor Richard" in his advice to-
a Young Tradesman.'
He that waits upon fortune is new
Ell sure of dinner again said
Franklin. Look before or you'll find
yourself behind. Beware of small
expenses; a small leak will sink a
great ship"
These and many other of Franklin's
sayings will be utilized as texts in
special birthday anniversary events
on January II.
Officials of the United States gov
eminent point out the necessity for
continued thrift. There are many
tasks in Europe to be completed the
army Of occupation must be main
tanned, and many hundreds of thous-
andS of American soldiers are to be
returned TO their homes. The treas
ury department has therefore launch
eo a program of education of the
American people in thrift and saving.
This program will reach every line
of endeayOr.

eaten-a great deal of suffering would
be saved to humanity.

dry, the tongue coated, nasty taste,

poisonous after effects right out of the
