4 THRIFTOGRAMS.

Thrift is iabor's greatest reward.
Time and circumstances change
thereby giving US new opportunities
to be thrifty
Thrift throws the light of knowledge
on the financial pathway of life.
Lies three great virtues faith,
hope and charity-are all strengthened
by thrift.
Thrift is the power that opens the
gates to the realms of financial indie
pendence.
Thrift is the chinook winds that
melt the ice barriers to the spring
time of success
The thrifty homes where the saw
ings are weekly and monthly increase
Is usually the realm of peace.
No matter what religious belief you
follow your financial doctrine should
be the creed of thrift.
Thrift not only builds a strong foun-
dalton for the present but stores up
great benefit for coming generations.
Beware OF promised big dividends.
Thrift says: "a safe investment is
one which bears reasonable interest
and always keeps the principal unim-
paired"

Belgium-An Inspiration In
Thrift.

sour people are thrifty and they
will pay their debts"
It was Albert, king of the Bel
gians, who spoke.
Could there be higher tribute
to the virtue of saving?
Belgium, who accepted death
and devastation rather than stain
the flag OF her people.
Belgium, who unflinchingly
barred her breast to the iron heel
of Prussianism.
Belgium. her sons dead; her
daughters despoiled: her homes
gone: her industries ruined; her
cities sacked!
Yet blood bathed Belgium looks
up from the ashes of her desola-
ton and with a smile, beautiful
despite starvation pallor, tells the
world that she will pay debts
piled upon her by a war forced by
power-crazed Huns.
She will pay only because Of
one reason and that reason is
that her people are thrifty.
Belgium. hero OF all nations. be-
comes a striking example OF the
art Of intelligent saving and
sensible buying.

these days?
TOO many satin-upholstered limosines
and not enough cows
TOO many consumers and not enough
producers.
TOO much oil stock and not enough
savings accounts
TOO much envy Of the results of hard
work and too little desire to emu
late it.
Too many desiring short cuts to
wealth and too few willing to pay
the price.
Too much discomfort that vents itself
in mere complaining and too little
real effort to remedy conditions"

LOWER COST OF LIVING
ONE RESULT IN SIGHT
Permanent Purchase Of Securities and
Individual Economy Urged In
Government Appeal.

Announcement has been received
from Washington to the effect that
not only will thrift and war savings
stamps and treasury savings certi-
6cates be sold in 1920 but that en-
larged plans have been prepared to
stimulate the sale of these securities
throughout the nation and to intensity
the general thrift movement.
A communication has been received
from Carter Glass, Secretary of the
Treasury, by r. A. Young, governor
of the Ninth Federal Reserve district,
outlining the work for next year.
''In launching the new plans" said
Governor Young, at will be the aim
Of this district-composed of Mime
sofa, North and South Dakota, Mon
tana and parts of Michigan and Wis
consin-to lead the nation during the
coming year in thrift work and the
sale Of securities"
1920 Plans Explained.
The official communication from Mr.
Glass forms the basis of suggestions
now being sent throughout the dis
trict.
"The savings movement, said M.
e. Harrison, director of the War Saw
ings Organization of the Ninth dis
trict, has two objects: to sell war
savings securities and to get satisfac-
tory results in total sales, so market
ing them, however, that they will stay
sold, and in the second place to de-
velop and protect secondary market
for the liberty bonds and treasury GER
tificates of Indebtedness.
1T will be the purpose of the move
ment to continue its effort to maintain
the value of these government savings
securities and to keep the market at
tractive for new offerings. This in
wolves an active campaign against
scalpers and get-rich-quick promoters
and to induce owners to hold their
bonds and stamps.
To Cut Down Living Costs.
More timely than any other phase
of the work will be the association of
the thrift movement with the effort of
the government to bring about
through application of individual saw
ing effort reduction of the high cost
of living. The public will be shown
that in their hands rests power to
bring about more favorable economic
conditions.
1.-The 1920 movement involves the
establishment of many additional war
savings societies in industrial, mer-
camille and other organizations to pro-
mote the regular sale of government
savings securities. Publicity material
is to be supplied these societies and
occasional talks by government thrift
experts will be made.
Schools to Teach Thrift.
1.-THE new plan includes unprece-
denied activity along thrift lines in
the public schools. The cooperation
of state superintendent of education
and all lesser educational workers is
being obtained and so pronounced is
the prospect along this line that the
introduction of thrift as part of cur
ricufum seems assured
"Women's organizations will be
asked to even more actively partici-
pate in the thrift campaign than in
the past When it is known that wo-
men spend 80 per cent of the money
which goes for merchandise, the inn
portance Of cooperation on the part
of the women is apparent.

Mother Goose On Thrift.

There was an old woman who lived
with a crew
OF children SO careless
Their money all flew.
She bought them some thrift stamps.
She gave them the card,
And now to save money
They try very hard.

likes it, let him do it," he had told the
family defiantly. 'I'm going to some
big city where a fellow has some
chance to see life and make his for
tune. I'm through with haying all day
long in the scorching sun, milking
cows and feeding hogs, and then hav-
ing to sit in the dark on the porch
listening to nothing but frogs and
katydids until you have to go to bed
if you want to get up in time to do it
all over again next day. I'm through,
tell you"
The family had tried to reason with
Dan, but it was of no use. One morn
ing they found him gone, leaving only
the briefest note of good-by to his
mother. And now the third Christmas
since his going had come and the fam
lily itself was going in to the big city
to spend holidays with Julia, who had
married and lived there. ...
Ordinarily Julia and her husband,
with little Bobbie, came out to the
farm visiting the old folks and
brother Jim at Christmas, but this
year Julia had a new baby, scarce
four months old, and hadn't felt equal
to the trip. So father and sweet-faced
mother Morris-their hair already
white and with the years anxiety for
their missing Dan reflected in wrin-
killed. faces-packed up all sorts of
homemade eatables in baskets and
had sun-burned brother Jim take
them for the first time to the big city.
1t was a bewildering adventure to
those simple souls; each incident of
the journey and novel sight after ar
rival was never-to-be forgotten ex-
perience. Fred, Julia's brisk and
