ALLOWANCE TO CHILD
Is ROAD To ECONOMY
Home Economics Expert Says
Way Is to Teach Youth Early
Proper Apportioning
of an Income.

"The best and most natural way Of
beginning true national economy, wise
spending and wise saving" says
Ruth Wardell, head of the home eco
Monies department Of the University
of Iowa, and who last summer started
n home economics department in a
Cleveland (Ohio) bank, "is by giving
the children an allowance. The lesson
of properly apportioning an income
thus is early learned"
Miss Wardell favors the allowance
arrangement at very early age, say
at six or seven. 1t may then be very
small, and out of ii the budding citi-
zen may be expected to provide only
school pencils, tablets, etc. The pur-
chase of school books provides log
zeal next step; little later some per-
sonal belongings, such as shoes, may
be added.
Il say Shoes" explains Miss War
dell, because children seem to take
more interest in shoes than in most
articles of wearing apparel, and be-
Decorah public opinion. (Decorah, Winneshiek County [Iowa]) 1895-1928, 1919-03-19

cause shoes represent a highly impor-
tant item to which children frequently
pay little heed"
The allowance should provide q
little margin to encourage careful buy
Ing and saving possibilities. 1t should
not necessitate so much care or
thought as to burden the growing
youngster. 1t should never under nor
NAL circumstances, be helped out"
by irregular gifts or expected to cover
other than the recognized items. The
allowance, with Its purchasing respon-
sibilities, should be increased gradu-
ally, steadily. BY the time high school
is reached the boy or girl should be
buying practically all his or her own
clothes. - -. - -. .->s-s.-,
Miss Wardell tells an interesting
story of a boy who called upon her
in Cleveland, telling her of his man
ner of apportioning the rather gener-
Gus allowance made by his father. He
knew to a penny what every article
be wore had cost him; he was intelli-
gent regarding relative textile and
wearing values; he saved steadily, syss
tematically, with JOY.
A Chicago mother started her little
daughter out, similarly, at eight years
old and at sixteen the girl was a bet
ter buyer than she was. These chill

KILLS WIFE WITH HAMMER.
Worth County Man Also Assaults
Babe With Deadly Weapon.

Emmons, IA terrible tragedy
took place here when Bernt Benson
killed his wife with a hammer and
attempted to kill his fourteen months
old sleeping babe and himself. The
crime was committed between and
Z O'Clock in the morning Mrs. Benson
attempted to get out of bed to dress
when Benson without warning drew
a hammer from beneath his pillow
and struck his wife a violent blow
upon the head. The hammer crashed
thru the skull into the brain. Benson
then got out of bed and dragged his
wife's bleeding form from the bed
across the floor to the stove where he
struck her five more terrific blows
about the forehead and top of the
skull. ~ ,ta {, - i'-'--'--r>
Mrs. Benson's oldest boy (son of

$4,000 Animal Made Him Money

A few years ago c. S. Mulks, a
young farmer and dairyman moved
from near Whitewater, Wis.,, to a
farm three miles east of Riceville,
Iowa. He went into high grade stock.
About three years ago he laid down
cool $4,000 for a sire for his herd.
Most of the farmers in that section
shook their heads; they could think
of nothing appropriate to say, but
privately they entertained the opin-
ION that the price was fake or the
Mulks was crazy. This week in
Waterloo the holdings of Mr.. Mulks
and those of another stock raiser
from a nearby state, were sold at
auction. Mr.. Mulks goes back to
Riceville with approximately $70,-
600 of real money in his jeans, which
is some wad of lucre even in these
days of swollen rolls" OF course
tie moral is obvious. 1t pays to pro-
duce tho best; blood counts.-Water-

THINK BEFORE YOU SPEND
Diamonds7 Why Not w. S. S.?

Diamonds to the value of $2,OO0,000,-
000-more than half the available
world supply and value-are owned In
the United States of America.
Pretty things, diamonds, fascinating
to watch, pleasing to wear, of high
commercial value. Diamond prices
rise every now and again, truly, but
the rate of increase cannot be pre-
cisely calculated, and the risk OF own
ing diamonds is large-unless they're
tucked away in the safety deposit
vaults where no one ever sees them.
Now $2,OO0,OOO,OO0 invested in gov
eminent securities, War Savings
Stamps, for example, would mean
much better times for the country.
Why not, for the sweet girl graduate,
the bride, wife to be hOnOred, War
Savings Stamps instead Of diamond;
Bright thought! The War Saving
Stamps now and the diamond fly
years later-out of the War Sayln
Stamps profits when they mature.

understand that this sum, with his

Do you recall the day Jim Jeffrles,

you recall the fact that following that
fight 1t became an axiom that They
never come back?"

Prince Henry of Prussia long since

hard to say that the old spirit is con-

the same power In Hunland that they

hold on the German mind.
So, with the making of peace and
the taking of guarantees and the FIR
ing of cannon announcing the end OF
the war--all is not done. The plain
truth is that Germany must be watched
long time yet. States that have
been rent apart have way OF putting
themselves together again. That is
why the armies OF the allies must be
maintained in considerable strength.
That is why the American soldiers are

Until all that is done we will be pay
