KEEP UP THRIFT IN SCHOOLS
Pupils to Be Taught Principles OF
Saving With Experience In Buying,
Selling and Account Keeping.

With the resumption OF school this
month many of the educational fea.
lures of the Thrift and War Savings
Stamps campaigns will be centered In
the classrooms. The continuation Of
the Little Lessons In Thrift which
were sent direct to all the school
teachers In the five states of the Sew
enth District during the first six
months OF the year will be provided
for. These lessons are designed for all
grades, but pay particular attention to
the younger classes, where IL is de-
sired TO instill early the principles of
thrift and saving.
In all eighth grade schools and in
high schools IL is planned to interest
the pupils in personal accounts, a sys-
tematic and regularly conducted or
ganization being formed In each school
for that purpose. The system will
include personal experiences In buy
ing. selling and account keeping.
Students In all colleges and univer-
slties will be enlisted In n campaign
TO popularize personal accounts and
systematic savings. Domestic science
teachers In public schools, normal
schools and colleges. and agents OF ex-
tension departments will be utilized to
make this individual budgeting Of
students incomes eff sctive.

GOES FAR BACK IN HISTORY
French City Of Montdidier Was OF I'M
portance In First Millennium Of
the Christian Era.

The National Geographic society Is
letin on Montdidier, few miles east
of Amiens:
This little town, whose history
dates back to the first millennium Of
the Christian era, had population
of less than 5000 at the beginning of
associations. 1t is said TO have de-
rived its name from the fact that
Didier or Desiderius, the last Of the
Lombard kings, was imprisoned here
in TIA by Charlemagne. 1t will be re-
membered that Charlemagne, having
put aside his first wife, Desiderius'
daughter, took up the quarrel of Pope
Adrian l with the Lombard monarch,
and after marching an army across
the Alps, captured the erstwhile IA
ther-in-law's capital city, Ticinum,
and took the vanquished ruler back
to France, where he died i'm captivity.
"Montddier is attractively situated
on an eminence on the banks of the
river Don. II is the capital Of an ar
rondissement in the department Of
the Somme. and is GO miles north of
Paris by rail and % miles southeast
of Amiens. Its chief industries be
fore the war were tanneres and the
manufacture OF Zinc-white.
"When the tides of war finally re-
cede it is probable that the three build
ings i'm which the citizens of Mont
didier took the greatest pride will be
crumbling ruins. These are the church
of St Pierre, which was built before
Columbus set sail on his voyage Of
discovery, and which contains II tomb
and font of the eleventh century; the
church of st. Sepulchre, a fifteenth
century edifice, and the Palais de JUS
tice, formerly the city castle. In the
last named building visitors before the
war were shown six unusually hand
some Brussels tapestries of the sew
enteenth century. These were I'M
doubtedly removed before the Ger
mans entered the city.
"MontdidIer's most famous son was
Parmentier. the scientist. who gave
impetus TO the culture of the potato
In France. A statue erected here com
memorates his gift to the nation.
For a number of years this little
city was governed by its own lords,
then passed under the dominion of the
counts Of Creepy and Valois. In the
twelfth century il became a posses
sion Of the French crown and received
charter of liberties. In 1886 it Of
fered a gallant and successful resist
ance to the Spanish invaders"

He Hadn't Realized.

The custodian of an indianapolis
building recently hired colored man.
George, to work about the building.
George had always worked as "house
man" and came well recommended.
The first day Of his employment, how
ever, George was out for lunch the
greater part Of three hours.
The custodian was naturally an
noyed. "Where in thunder have you
beenf he inquired the minute he set
eyes on the erring George. "Me?
Why. Use been home takn' nap"
George answered, In a surprised tone
Il always takes nap In the middle
OF the day."
"Well, believe me-" the custodian de-
clared. you don't do that any more.
You're needed around here"
Was George aggHeved7 Not bit
Of IT. A most appreciative grin spread
over his face.
well, now" he said slowly, you'll
have TO excuse me this time, boss.
It's just that l didn't realize before
how important is around here"

Lsbor-SavinQ Harvester.

One thousand improved wheat-har-
vesting machines, known as combines,
will be used In Washington state and
other states of the Northwest this
year. according to farm-help special
lists of the United States department Of
agriculture, and will effect great sav-
Ing In labor. These machines, which
cut the heads from wheat and thrash
the grain as they travel across the
field. can be operated by two persons,
and each machine Will harvest from
$50 to 400 acres of wheat during
season. They are marked labor savers
over the old type combine, which re-
quired about 20 men.

Avoid Crouch and Live Iona.

Writing for the Minneapolis Jour.
nal, A. J. X. notes the demise of Sc
attic citizen one hundred and three
years old, and suggests that one of the
reasons why he lived so long was
that he never grouched at the break
fast table or elsewhere. Discussing
this, A. j. II. writes
1.-The enjoyment Of breakfast and
OF the sunrise always comes so cas-
ily TO me that / sometimes wall In
charity for persons who, | have been
led To believe, start the generous day
wrong by raising hades at the break
fast table. / will freely wager 70
cents that the Seattle centena-
rian who lived TO be one hun
dred and three never insurged at
breakfast, never complained of the
food, nor sneered at his wife's cook
ing"
The aged Scatter ascribed his lon
gevity TO his own temper; he had not
been angry since he was twenty, and
had driven yoke of oxen most OF his
life. Also. loved everybody, and every
body loved him.

To clean gas globes, wash with soap

THRU MEDIUM OF PUBLICITY

Washington, Aug 11.-Attorney
General Palmer has opened fire on the
profiteering retailer. He is going TO
find out how much of the high cost OF
living is caused by the retailer taking
more than a fair profit on articles OF
food or clothing sold.
The attorney generals scheme is a
shrewd move to get public opinion
centered against the man who is get
ting more than his share. And It was
tho first practical step OF the govern
ment's campaign for a reduction of
prices.

As the means OF getting at the facts
on retailers prices. the attorney gem

be made Of

One representative Of labor.
One housewife.

public, and, II possible, one wholesaler.
To Get ut Cost Facts
Attorney General Palmer points out
that such a committee will be extra
legal" but says it will have the hack
ing OF the department OF justice in
any reports OF boarding OF foodstuffs
it uncovers. The committee, how
ever. is to be charged with ascertain
ing whether the retail prices charged
in the community are fair. 1t is pro-
posed that the committees, as soon
as they are named. shall at once hold
hearings and ascertain the costs of
foodstuffs and other necessities. the
cost to the merchant and ascertain il
the local scale Of prices are justified
or not. Their findings in every event
will be subject to review by the state
food administrator.
