together.
There was a delay e. several hours

the main line was cleared. due 20
the condition OF the track. which WINS

gers, were finally pushed TO one side
Of the tracks BY the wrecklng crew,
and left there while all efforts were
turned toward clearing up the main
line for the resumption Of trasiic.
Stories Of the wrecS a. told by the
nassengere who were on the train
when u occurred, were OF many dif-
fereni varieties.

ment in Eastern and Middle States
during the past thirty years. very
few of the Southern States have any
considerable number of these Associa-
tions. Only Kentucky, North caro-
lima and Louisiana cut any figure IN
their development. This is unfortu-
nate, because the Southeastern States
have a majority of rented homes,
where Eastern and Middle States
have majority of homes occupied by
owners. This section is also behind
the Eastern and Middle States in the
matter of Savings banks, although
there has been a considerable growth
in the last few years.
There is no section of the country
that needs Thrift as much as the
South and that is why tremendous
effort is being made by the organiza
ton of Savings Societies to establish
the savings habit among the people.

REAL PROSPERITY

Real prosperity consists in produc-
ing an abundance for everybody ana
making good use of it. To consume II
all would be extravaganza. TO con-
sumo a reasonable amount and save
the rest so as to accumulate capital
to employ people and so increase their
comfort would be the best possible use
of the resources at our command.
This is the meaning of the Thrift
nrogram which the Government has
nut on and Of the organization of Saw
ings Societies throughout the country.
It is said to be fact that after all
great wars there is a period OF extraV'
agance at the very time when there Is
the greatest need for industry and
economy to repair the frightful losses
caused by war. The Government II

Savings Deposits Increase

recent big increases is freely given
tc the work done in the Savings Stamp
campaigns. Persons who get the thrift
habit practice it in savings deposits
as well as in Thrift and Savings
Stamp purchase, it has been shown.
The figures prove that in the tre-
mendous call upon the people OF the
country for money to float the Liberty
Loans and the War Savings Cam
paigns, deposits were not generally
withdrawn from the savings banks.
On the contrary, it appears that extra
effort has been made to pay Tor
stamps and bonds out Of the family
income without touching the nest
eggs" that are growing in the saw
ings banks.
An interesting statement prepared
by the National War Savings Commit
tee of Great Britain says, "The estab
l.shment of the National savings
Movement did not starve other organ
izations for thrift. 1t stimulated

goes deep into the causes of what it

fearless fairness when it has come
to the point where it's findings are to

This journal has looked into the
cause of the race ructions" in Wash

used practically non-existent in north

accustomed to self control, INDUCED

ritated their white neighbors to the
danger point.
Another explanation develops the
