Little Paul, age four, was much dis
gusted with the rules for the after
noon. They were, mot to dare so out

But he did go out of the yard, and
he also got terribly mussed, and some
one was provoked about it at the time.
For the first five minutes, which
is long time, considering his age,
Paul followed instructions.
Then, looking up to locate the source
of loud humming noise, he spied an
airplane circling above the arsenal.

time than it takes to tell it Paul was
violating very old rule, Never go
on the boulevard" a new one, Don't
go out of the yard" and, If running
in the tar and gravel as fast as his
short legs would carry him would muss
him up, he was in a fair way to vio-
late a third.
He had covered one block when the
noise became so loud that he looked
up. The plane thpt before had seemed
so small as it clrcled, high in the air,
was now headed directly at him, and
was roaring, snorting monster,
With good sense, far In excess Of his
years, he dropped down and rolled over
the dirty tarred road to the grassy
side, while the plane, passing over him,

SAVE; HAVE A PERSONAL
- SHARE IN THE FUTURE
BILLIONS FROM THE NICKEL:
Ever Stop to Think OF Vast Sums That
Can Be Saved From Small
Amounts2

If every person in the United States
saved nickel in one day it would
mean that at night the people would
be just five million dollars richer. And
then suppose the people kept this up
for one month? 1t would mean that
at the end of thirty days they would
have saved one hundred and fifty mil
lion dollars.
Why not keep it up for the rest of
1919? What would be the result? One
billion five hundred million dollars.
Sounds like lot Of work for one little
nickel to do, doesn't it, yet there are
scores of industries in the United
States which are paying big dividends
on the little nickels gathered day by
day.
This immense sum if invested in
War Savings Stamps would earn for
the savers approximately sixty-four
million dollars in l920-the work of
"old man interest" VINO never takes
day off and who Is continuously on
the job.

THRIFT SCHOOL PLAN
OUTLINED BY EXPERT
DR.. Smaller Mathews Explains
Scope and Purpose Of Great
U. S. Educational Move
ment for Saving.
BY DR.. SMALLER MATHEWS.

[chairman of w. S. S. Educational
Committee for Seventh District and
Vice Director for lllinois.l
Thrift will be taught in the schools
of the states constituting the Seventh
federal reserve district.
The children of Iowa will help pre-
pare the Little Lessons in Thrift which
are being written by Prof. Macy Camp
bell of the Iowa State Teachers col
lege, under the general direction of an
educational committee of the district.
Besides the chairman the educational
committee consists of w. +. Larson,
department of public instruction, Wis
consin ]. V. McNally. Detroit public
schools, Michigan, and Macy Campbell,
Iowa State Teachers college.
The Little Lessons in Thrift appear
fortnightly on printed sheets. The les
sons are prepared for the different
grades in the schools. They are Illus
trated and interesting. They teach
savings as a phase of good citizenship,
give problems of arithmetic in terms Of
thrift stamps, chewing gum, candy
and other things child buys.
1t is a new field which is thus being
opened up and the war savings organ
izatiOn is rendering a great service to
the rising generation. Nor Is it all
mere theory. The teaching of the prin-
clples of thrift is combined with a sort
of manual training in thrift, through
the sale of War Savings Stamps in
schools.
Along with these Little Lessons in
Thrift the educational committee fur
nishes the schools with pupils thrift
cards. on which the teacher keeps an
account of the amount, however small,
which the pupil brings to her for the
purpose of buying stamps. This prac-
tice itself becomes educational, be-
cause the pupil gets introduced to
simple bookkeeping and banking.
These plans have received the hear
test cooperation of the school admin
istration in the various states and
cities The parochial and private
schools also are cooperating in the use
of the material and plans prepared by
the committee.
The young men and women of the
next generation will have higher re-
Spect for thrift and a better under
standing as to how to spend their
money, for they will learn even in the
primary grades that thrift is not miser-
illness but a way of spending money so
as to make 1t for them.
