Definition of Intelligent Saving

The savings division of the United States
treasury, after study of thrift, says the key
note of the definition of intelligent saving is that
wise spending is the basis of intelligent saving
and that waste, whether of commodity or time,
profits no one. Under this theory intelligent
savers utilize saving as means of postponed en-
ioyment with added interest. AS intelligent
saving, it is opposed to mere boarding or miserli-
ness. It states it's definition in this expanded
form:
"a WISE SPENDING. This means spend

Who Was First
School Teacher
In Richmond?

Miss Lizzie Hill, of North Tenth
street, has come forward with infor-
nation as to the identity of the first
teacher who ever taught in Richmond,
after reading The Palladium's article
saying the first teacher was unknown.
Temple Unthank, who taught here
in 1918, on South Fourth street, near
the river, was the first teacher, says
Miss Hill. He did not remain in Rich
mond long, leaving in less than a
year, and the second teacher was Beu-
lab Pucket, who taught in 1922 and
1923, in building in the square where
the courthouse now stands
Miss Hill says she has often heard
her father, Charles Hill, speak of the
two pioneer teachers, and that he
would often talk of the old-fashioned
ways of the two Her grandfather was
Robert Hill. Richmond pioneer, and
a conductor" on the underground
railway" by which slaves escaped to
Canada during the Civil war.

A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has

this through your hair, taking one

gray hair disappears, and after an
other application or two, 1t becomes

URIC ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take Glass of Salts II Your Back
hurts or Bladder bothers you

Drink more water.
If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys
authority who tells us that meat forms
uric acid which almost paralyzes the
kidneys in their efforts to expel 1t
from the blood. They become, slug
gish and weaken, then you suffer
with a dull misery in the kidney reg
ion, sharp pains in the back or sick
headache, dizziness, your stomach
scurs, tongue is coated and when the
weather Is bad you have rheumatic
twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full
of sediment, the channels often get
sore and irritated, obliging you to
seek relief two or three times during
the night.
To neutralize these Irritating acids,
to cleanse the Kidneys and flush off
the body's urinous waste get four
ounces Of Jad Salts from any pharm-
acy here; take a tablespoonful in a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fine, This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, SO it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in

it that all the income is not spent on the first
needs desires lest other more urgent needs or
desires appear. The determination of what is
wise spending must rest with the individual but
he must be helped to overcome the temptation to
satisfy present needs to the neglect of future
needs. On the other hand urgent necessities of
today must not be neglected for the petty ones
of tomorrow. Provision must be made for the
rainy day and unforeseen emergencies, but
economic stability implies also some capital with
which to turn around, or to take advantage of OPP
portunity
(2) INTELLIGENT SAVING. This consists
largely in foregoing -considered or foolish pres
ent expenditures in order to be able to secure in
the future either necessities or ever the more
substantial luxuries. Such saving is the opposite
of miserliness in that it involves chiefly the post
ponement of expenditure until small sums, which
would purchase little in themselves, have accumu-
lated into substantial buying power. Such saving
contemplates the maintenance of family, eff
ciency meeting of real necessities as they arise,
and, at the same time, capitalizing a part of the
individuals earnings and placing the family on
a sound financial basis

also gives the individual personal share in his

ther of commodity, time, or money, benefits no
one. The taught us to combat waste as
means of helping our army and navy and winning
the war. Incidentally what was saved undoubt-
edly contributed directly to the well-being and
happiness of each family. Avoidance of waste
of course, is important to the nation or to the
individual in peace as it is in war. The work of
the division, however, will be concerned princi-
pally with helping individuals salvage waste in
forms that directly result in monetary savings
susceptible of investment or wiser spending.
Although this definition primarily is intended
to assist the government in it's sales of savings
stamps nevertheless it holds true of all forms of
government investments, the Victory Loan not
excepted. If a person has saved any sum of
money in excess of $50, he can find no better form
of investment than a Victory Bond.

The Advantage of Good Highways

There are 2,457 1874 miles of public roads in
the United States of which only 296290 miles, or
about II per cent, are surfaced. The rest are
earth roads. If all the automobiles were evenly
distributed over the roads of this country, it is
estimated that there would be five motor cars
to every two miles of road and if every car were
loaded to its limit with passengers, one-half the
population of the United States could be hauled
at one load.
About 81 per cent of all the motor vehicles in
the world are the roads of the United States.
OF the 100000 automobiles in the world on
January l, 1919, 6,146,677 were in the United
States and the motor owners paid in license and
other fees $51 Atlas. The department of agri-
culture estimates that these 100000 motor cars
when they run on unimproved roads pay about
twice much for gasoline and tires as when they
run on surfaced roads.
Owners of automobiles, therefore, should be
intensely interested in expenditures for road con-
struction, which in 1919 will reach about $780,
100000. Virtually all the states are planning
continuous systems of connecting highways and
there is indication that the various states will
cooperate among themselves so that hard sur
faced roads will not terminate at the state lines
but continue. We find good example of this
in our own country where the old National Road
has been improved beyond the Ohio line SO that
one may travel almost the entire distance be-
tween Indianapolis and Dayton on hard surfaced
roads.
The United States has entered upon an era of
road construction that may parallel the tremen-
dous expansion of railroad construction number
of decades ago. The development of our nation
has been attributed and rightly so, to the ex-
pansion of our railroad systems. The events of
the last four years have demonstrated conclusive
" that the railroads running through the dense
ly settled sections of the United States unable
to cope with traffic that has been offered them,
forcing shippers to find recourse in shipments by
motor truck over highways.
The construction of hard surfaced roads will
serve as an auxiliary means to relieve the ship
ping tension. With the development of the motor
truck, the highway has come back into its own,
and it is safe to predict that those states and
communities which first realized the advantage
of hard surfacing all roads, SO to facilitate
: shipmen will reap corresponding harvest in
new trade relations. Just as the railroads that
penetrated new regions brought wealth to the
cities they touched and to the people who lived
in the surrounding districts, so good roads will
nowadays bring money to the districts that ap-
preciate their value.

Ghosts of the Argonne

(By Grantland Rice in the Saturday Evening Post)
You hear them at night when the moon is hidden
They sound like the rustic of winter leaves,
Or lone lost winds that arise unbidden,
Or rain that drips from the forest caves,
AZ they glide again from their silent
To meet and talk of their final fight,
Where over the group some stark tree losses
Its eerie shadow the night.
If you'll take night with its moonless weather
know you will beyond doubt
That the rain and the wind and the leaves together
Are making the sounds you will hear about =
The wintry rustic Of dead leaves falling
The whispering wind through the matted glen;
But it's sergeant calling
The ghostly roll of his squad again.
They talk Of and its crimson glory
And laugh at the trick which Fate has played;
And and over they tell the story
Of their final charge through the Argonne glade;
But gathering in by hill and hollow
With their ghostly tramp the rainsoaked loan
There is set rule which the clan must follow
They speak of returning home
They whisper still of the rifles clatter,
The rvetng racket machine guns gave,
Until dawn and the clan scatter
AS each glides to his waiting grave;
But here at the end of their last endeavor
However their stark dreams leap the foam
There is set rule they will keep forever:
Death to the phantom which speaks of home!"
