Thrift Teaching.

INSTRUCTION in the practical a.
only means of stemming the tide of
waste and extravaganza" recite reso-
buttons adopted in this city by COM
mittee of state school superintendent
meeting with Treasury officials and
representatives of the American Bank
ers' Associa ton. These resolutions
advocated the teaching of systematic
thrift to school children. No more
valuable lessons could he given the
children of America. They have al
ready received training in saving
through their purchase of thrift and
war saving stamps, both during and
since the war. Millions of dollars are
now held to their credit in the Treas
ury through these securities. The
first issue of these stamps will soon
be funded and large sum of money
will be paid back to the children. who
should be trained meanwhile in thrift
in saving, So that they will use these
sums properly and not s;quander them.
If the children of the country can be
made to realize the need of thrift they
will be more independent and self
helpful when they reach manhood and
womanhood. Much of the wasteful-
ness and extravaganza of the present
adult generation is due to the lack
of training during it's childhood. Had
these people who are now spending
money recklessly and indulgently and
without thought for the future been
taught the lesson of thrift in their
youth they would not today be living
up to their incomes in luxury and
pleasure. but would be saving margins
against emergencies and the day of
declining earning powers.
This country has been suffering dur
ing recent years severely from the
extravaganza Of people whose incomes
were increased in consequence of the
war expansion Of industry. All sense
Of values seems to have been dis
torted. 1t is now proposed by this
present committee of educators and
Treasury officers and bankers to in
sure against such habits by systematic,
nationwide instruction of the young.
1t is an excellent plan and should be
adopted by the school authorities
throughout the country.

Mr.. Harding and Patronage.

Although the President elect is TAX
ing vacation his mail is following

This appeared in special to yester
days Star from Point Isabel:
Everybody writes to Mr.. Harding
nowadays to tell him how he should
run the government after March 4
They tell him whom he must put in
his cabinet. who must be appointed
postmaster or collector of internal
revenue. as the case may be. They
even tell him what he should eat and
drink and wear. and nearly every one
is an original Harding man."
Mr.. Wilson is believed to have had
less trouble with office-seekers than
any Of his predecessors in the White
House. He managed in two ways
First, he kept people at a distance
His aloofness began with his assump
ton of the duties of his office. So.
Letting place by letter or through a
friend is slow business.
Second, he owed his election less to
the activity of his friends than to the
faction fighting of his enemies. The
republican family row had made him
President. Had the Taft people and
the Roosevelt people stood together,
the activity of the democrats would
have awaited nothing.
There is no aloofness in Mr.. Hard
ing's composition. He is approach

we'll as those desiring only to pay their
respects will be able to reach him.
But he could truthfully say to Of

less with his election. When the time
came the voters surged toward him.
They could not have been kept back.

The Harding Cabinet.

Springs, where a number Of prominent
republicans are resting from their

There was considerable talk among
the republican leaders concerning the
possible makeup of the cabinet of
President -elect Harding Fred w.

national committee. in an interview
said he was of the opinion that Sena-
tor Harding will have his mind made
up to substantially every cabinet po-
sition before anything can be accom-
plished either for or against any in
dividual through the efforts of any
organization or any group of men"
AS rule. cabinets are not formed
so quickly. Some have been formed
slowly. and with difficulty. Some have
been recast several times before TAX.
ing the final FORM
Gen. Garfields cabinet was one of
these. He had fractional differences to
compose, and they proved to be stub
born. Uncle Jerry Rusk's name was
on tentative list, but was removed
before the names were sent to the
Senate; and it was not until eight
years later that Uncle Jerry" as Sec
rotary of Agriculture under Gen. Har-
rison. filled a cabinet place.
Mr.. McKinley's cabinet was another.
1t las not until the eleventh hour that
Cornelius n. Bliss of New York was
induced to accept the secretaryship of
the Interior. His private engagements
were pressing. At last, however, he
consented. Had he held out, it might

eral changes in the list prepared.
There is an abundance Of excellent
material at Mr.. Harding's command.
But so many considerations-facti
sectional and other-enter into sorting
it out, 50 as to get we'll balanced
service, the process might we'll be slow.
He has a little more than three
months in which to satisfy himself

Social Cooperation.

The question as to whether or not
the interests of social service work
in Washington could best be furthered
through financial federation by the
many individual agencies here en-
gagged in the work of alternating pow
erty and distress is moot today The
peace chest" theory, whereby the
separate budgets of these various
agencies are united and single drive
made for one lump sum for the sup
port of all. undoubtedly attracts.
There is. however. admitting much in
favor of such a proposal. much to be
said on the other side Of the argu-
ment. And, as a step which would
call for d general burning Of the
bridges of the several agencies-in the
form of their carefully constructed
subscription lists-the scheme which
is being urged upon them. and which
would have to be made largely in the
form of an experiment. must be most
carefully scrutinized.
There is, however. an alternative
dangers which are inhert mt in the
proposition of financial federation. in
sures large advantages, in the form
of increased efficiency for service, tc

social service in general in the Ma
