THRIFT AS A
STABILIZER OF BUSINESS.
rhe Foundation Upon Which All
Successful Enterprises are
Based.

In q recent address in Now York
Jity Mr.. William Mather Lewis con-
rasUed thrift with mere saving.
Thrift, ne said, is much broader mat
ar than mere saving. Thrift is care
nd prudence in the management OF
)ne's affairs; the foundation upon
which every successful and enduring
business enterprise is based.
The man who boards his money, who
leprives himself Of the decencies Of
ife in order to accumulate, is going
counter to the Declaration of indie
Dendence-He is narrowing his life,
restricting his liberty, and shutting
himself away from true happiness.
He who spends his money wisely,
who aporttons hts dollars inteiltgently
against the needs Of today and the
needs of tomorrow, who, in other
words, is practicing thrift, is investing
in Liberty and happiness, is securing
life more abundantly.
The miser lays aside a surplus by
refusing to buy those things which
necessity and comfort and the good of
his community require. The thrifty
man buys literally and intelligently;
be makes very sure that the shoes fol-
which he exchanges the product OF
many hours labor contain good work
manship and good material; that the
meat he carries home at night goes
on the table, not in the garbage can
He insists that the dollar he hands
the employee be earned by an hour Of
honest labor A thrifty man is careful
of other things than money. Such
+ me does not arrive at the station hal
an hour before train time. If his time
! is worth three dollars an hour he does
not use It Up On work THAI thTee-dol
| lar.a-day assistant could DO. Thrift
consists in making the most Of ones
resources, tangible and intangible
making the most of them for the bene
fit Of self and of ones fellows.
As q means OF thrift, Mr.. Lewis ad
vecated the formation of War Savings
Societies and investment in War Saw
inys ssra-uSxs.

HOW TIE FAMILY INCOME
SHOULD BE DISTRIBUTED
Every Family Should Have Own Per-
sonal Household Budget

The household is a corporation
with esrtsin definite obligations
and q more or less certain income,
and it should, therefore, have a
definite budget.
No general budget can be so framed
as to fit the needs of every family,
Families differ, even when identical in
size, number, sex and general sitna-
ton, but no family can thrive and
progress without sound and sane f.
RANGING, without arrangement of rea'
5onable financial margin, without reg
ular saving and Investments, such as
are offered by Thrift and War Savings
Stamps; and only intelligent adher
ence to an intelligent budget can be
trusted, under ordinary circumstances,
to bring about the desired results.
Methods Of appropriation, however,
differ; method which proves feasible
In a given family would be worse than
useless in another; but certain car.
dinal principles may be safely laid
down.
The amount Of possible savings
shoaM be set apart definitely and
rigidly adhered TO. Other allowances
may be variable or they may be held
within hard and fast limits. One plaa
after another may be tried, il liked
until the best one suited is found
All things considered. the most easily
efficient budget usually is that which
allows a certain share Of the income
for each budget head listed, holds
rightly within the items of appropria
ton, ar1 wisely applies any balance
or surplus to the savings or recreation
account.

61 RADICALS
 FROM WEST TO
 BE DEPORTED

New York, Dec. 19-Sixty-one members of the Industrial Workers of the World, anarchists, communists and Federation of Russian Workers asitators, who were ordered deported by the courts at Seattle, San Fran cisco, St. Louis, Chicago and Pitts burgh, were landed at Ellis Island yesterday after being brought across the country in a special train.
 They were placed in what is known as the Soviet colony" which is com posed of eighty four other radicals, including Emma Goldman and Alex ander- Berkman, who, according to government officials, are to be de- ported to Russia within a few days.
 Coming across the country the train, known to the agents of the Depart ment of Justice who accompanied t as the anarchists special" stopped en route only long enough to take on the radicals assigned to travel on it. At Jersey City the travellers were put aboard an immigration tug and hurried to the island. Their arrival was made the occasion for a little BolsheVik demonstration.

MCCORMACK IS
 GOOD DAD ID
 FAMILY OF TEN

John Mccormack, the great Irish tenor, who appears at Polls theatre next Sunday afternoon, does not seem unduly worried by the parental re- responsibilities he has taken unto him. self, in adopting his ten nieces and
 nephews by marriage, who were made orphans by Hun ruthless U-boat war fare
 As he talked Of them last night his face darkened as he told of -..eir pa rents fate on the Dublin, mail boat, Leinster; and 1t lighted up as he spoke of the eldest's brightness and the baby's pranks.
 T shall feed, cIothe and educate every one of them; God granting me my voice and the American public" he said.
 The singer was playing and softly humming over 8 tune. Just hum ming over a touching little ballad, Why, Oh. Why Has Montana Gone Dry, Mary Ann, Mary Ann?' It is one of the many receive every day and l am expected to make famous" he said in the way of a greeting. But what of this new family of yours? Are the boys to be famous singers and what do you propose do- ing with the girls?" was asked He stopped in the middle of the room for 8, second and with his hands in his pockets, gazed dubiousIy at the floor Looking up quickly he crossed the room and threw himself on a lux urioUs davenport.
 Relates Tragic Tale.
 Its @ tragic story, I don't tell it very often, but when I do here he drew deep breath) I get more and more worked up over it. As he said this 3, faraway look with a, hard steeIy glint came into his genial blue eyes. Their name is Foley. There arc five girls and five boys The eldest is q boy of seventeen and a half years old, and the youngest a boy of two years. The baby is with us in Amer ica now, but I have not been able to bring the other nine over yet. Their father, Thomas Foley, of 1 Dublin, was a brother of Mrs. Me i Cormack. In October, 1918, he and his wife received word that Chris l Barrett, Mrs. F'oley's only brother was dying in a London hospital. They l took the first boat from Dublin to Holyhead, via, the Irish channel Ii happened to be the Leinster" While these two were on an errand of mercy, the Leinster was torpe- doed,' continued the tenor. cIenchtns his fists and leaning a, trif1e forward Both were drowned. Toms body was never found, but they picked Mrs Foley up later. While their bodies were being lsshed and hurled about by the rough sea waves, Chris died in the London hospital. and Won Tir. pitz's sea sharks added ten more or phans to the glory of the German ern- pire.
 Lilly my wife, and I got the news while at dinner in our summer home Tokeneke Park, CoI1ender's Point Conn. It was a terrible shock. Al that time said 1t was the most
 damnalble thing that happened since the Lus:tania. But the situation
 called for action. I cabIed another
 sister of my wife's in Dublin that I
 would be a father to the children, and
 that they should not worry I'm proud of them, from the big gest down to the smallest one,'' he said with his face Iighting up and his voice jubilant ''The eldest one now is working. He has taken his fathers place as assistant town clerk in Dublin. And the youngest ?''- Hmm, Hmm, Hmm, he hummed up

the scale as he rose and walked to another end of the room. Turning he said, In a voice full of pride: Hes just two years old. Last night he talked to me by long distance, and guess what he said': Hello! Hello! Daddie John, I'm being a good boy!" Mccormack raised his eyebrows and voice In a high G and sang the words in such a clear melOdious childish voice as to make the imitation al- most uncanny
 AS for the others, they are all in private schools and kindergartens in Dublin. The baby is a great ad- vent to my other two wee ones. They love him dearly. My wife wrote me the other day that the baby had just said, When Daddie Johns here Tse good" Here the tenor threw his head back and laughed heartily. It is good to hear Mccormack laugh He does it from his heart and the mirth fairly shines in his eyes.
 When Mccormack laughs, the world laughs with him. and when he sobs in a song, it's one time man does not weep alone.

SEEK ID GET MO.22E WATER
 FROM FALLS
New Treaty Would Take 6O,OOO Additional Feet a
 Second

Washington, Dec. 19-A new treaty with Canada, providing for the with drawaI for power purposes, of 1000 ; additional cubic feet a second frCin the Niagara River above the Falls, was proposed to the State Depart ment yesterday by Representative Clarence MacGregor of New York. The diversion of water for power pur- poses authorized by the existing treaty is 36,0OO cubic feet per second by Canada and 10000 by the United States. Canada was given more on the theory that the United States took a considerable part of the supply of water from the Great Lakes through the Chicago Drainage Canal
 Under the treaty as proposed by AIr. MacGregor each country would be given 3O,O00 cubic feet more than it has at present bringing up the amount which could be utilized on the American side to 50.00O feet, and on the Canadian side to 66,O00 feet, NIr. MacGregor declares riis amount could easily be taken without dis turbing the scenic beauty of the Falls
 It was learned here that there vii be considerable pressure in Canada for this treaty. The Hydro Electric Power Commission, of Ontario, it is said, is very anxious to get more water, and is now constructing a. new plant, the Chippawa Power Development, which is expected to develop half a million horsepower, and which plans the r7f- version of water from above the Falls. to be returned below the Whirlpool Rapids.
 Sir Adam Beck, 1t Is understood here, is anxious for @ treaty permit inc no HiT- a water in order to provide power for this plant, and to satisfy the consum CTS dependent upon the Hydro-EIec- tric Power Commission, which sells it's current at a rate very much lower than the companies on the American side.
 IL has been understood that Sir Adam Beck would take the question up shortly with the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, but so far he has not been in Washington on this question.
