THE CROWS NEST

Federal experts are being sent out
from Washington for the purpose OF
instructing people in methods OF max
ing thrift tests. The one who is in
charge of the movement in this Sec
ton of the country makes the startling
statement that wives spend three
fourths of the nations income. These
experts are holding meetings in cities
and towns and are telling women how
they can promote individual prosperity
by learning how to spend wisely and
we'll; how they can work out economic
problems because of their share in the
expenditure of the nations income,
and their power to regulate the use
and to control the price Of the COM
mon necessities of life.
Through organization women are
planning to test among their member
ship the wisdom with which money Is
spent. Experiments are to be con-
tinued through period of three
months. The first month is to be de-
voted to keeping accounts, the second
month to saving and the third month
to calculation of how much was
saved on living expenses the second
month. They will not be asked to re-
port the actual amounts spent or
saved, but the percentage saved on the
items specified, s,lch as rent, food,
clothing. household service, amuse-
ments. incidentals, etc.
Something of this kind will have to
be encouraged among men as we'll as
women IL we ever expect return to
a reasonable normal again. These ex-
perts are rapping the tendency to buy
and wear expensive articles of clothing
just because they are fashionable.
Manufacturers of clothing are begin
ming to talk about the standardization
of certain articles of wear in order to
reduce the cost of manufacture.
Whether this will be success re-
mains to be seen. It will not work
in many cases.

article the accounts will show 1t.
There are several ways to keep the
household accounts, but the housewife
wants to use the way that is the most
simple and easiest to keep, for the
obvious reason that if she has to spend
too much time with them it soon be-
comes a tarden and she will wonder
whether it is really worth the bother
After ten years of keeping house
hold accounts and trying different
methods, the following simple method
of keeping accounts on the budget
plan seems to be the most practical
and gives the best results with the
minimum amount Of time.
The money spent is classified under
the different heads of the budget, as
food, clothing, advancement, running
expenses, incidentals, household fur
nishings and repairs, and savings.
Then as many large sized MANILA en-
velopes are obtained as there are divi-
sions of the budget, plus extra ones
for adding to them throughout the
year. The envelopes are punched on
the long side opposite the flap and
fastened together with rings or string.
The face of the envelope is then used
for keeping the account Of one par
ticular division of the budget, the
name of such division, as food, being
placed at the top and the envelope
ruled in ledger fashion. There should
be a column showing the date and item
and also columns showing the amount
paid out, the amount deposited in the
envelope (Which can be either cash or
check and balance column. At the
beginning of each month the amount
of cash is placed in each envelope
which you have determined will be
used for that purpose during the
month. Each time money is taken
from an envelope or put into one, it
is noted on the face of the envelope
in the proper place, and the balance
carried out each time. In no case
should there be borrowing from one
envelope to another, as this defeats
the purpose of the budget system"

A FALLEN COMRACE

A friend and business associate
writes the following tribute to the late
G. N. Parsons for the Elkton Record !:
Great losses to community are al.
ways apparent at the time when they
occur, but occasionally comes sorrow
which time, the great softener of grief
seems rather to accentuate than to
assuage. Such is the passing Of George
N. Parsons
Each passing day brings a fuller
relaxation that in the years OF faith

citizen and business man, he has

THRIFT IN THE HOME

The competition for essays on
Thrift in the Home" offered during
the big thrift drive of several weeks
ago, did not call out very many con
tributions on the subject. One, how
ever, stands out as practical sugges-
ton for household money. 1t is given
below with the hope that others may
profit by this simple way of handling
the household funds.
The real beginning of thrift in the
home is the keeping Of household ac-
counts, This does not mean just to
put down the amount spent and never
look at it again. except, perhaps to
add up the figures. but it means to
keep the accounts so that they may be
compared month by month and. the
amount OF money spent for the same
article different weeks and months
compared. In this way a perspective
or summary, Is obtained which shows

NJ. A. Huse of the American Press
Association published an article In
the January number Of Judicious
Advertising urging manufacturers
to secure cooperation Of country
merchants by advertising in local
papers. He said, among other
things:
"The country newspaper is the
advertisers medium for talking to
small town people and the local
farmers. II you wish to verify this
statement just ask any travelling
salesman or jobbers' salesman and
see what they have to say on the
subject. II they have visited many
small towns they will know that
the local paper Is the heart Of its
community. Its columns contain
items OF interest to every person
who reads them, whether In the
village or on farm down the road.
Its readers are Influenced by lee
