Serbian Families, Once Rich, Now Make Homes in
 Barns and Chicken Coops

In northern Serbia many families, wealthy before the war, have been found by officers of the American Re lief administration and the American Red Cross living in stables and chicken coops.
 Their homes had been destroyed by the advancing or retreating armies. Now their beds were heaps of straw covered with burlap. It was all that remained as furniture in their once pretentious estates. Penniless and with no clothing except what they wore. these people returned in pitiable condition. Many of the refugees made their way across Serbia in makeshift garments of burlap bags, which had contained American food sent to re- lieve their hunger.
 The condition of the Serbian peas- ants is beyond description. A large proportion are homeless. Most fam flies have been deprived of their wage earners by death. The mother Is now obliged to support herself and chill dren on what she can procure on a farm stripped of its machinery and tools.

CHRISTMAS SALES TOTAL
 CLOSE TO 3,oO0,0Oo

Christmas sales, of War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi- cates amounted close to $3,000,000 in the Twelfth Federal Reserve District, according to a report made public by Theodore Hardee, Director of the War Loan Organization for the District. The estimate is based on the heavy bank sales of these securities, which alone amounted to s872,000 for the period embraced between November 26 and December 31. Post office sales as yet unreported will swell the total sales somewhere near the es- timate, in the opinion of War Loan officials.
 Of the total bank sales during this period for the District, San Francisco subscribed 22.74 per cent or $198,500. "When reports are all in," said c. A. Farnsworth, Associate Director of the War Loan. Organization, Eve arc con fident they will show for the Christ mas period, roughly speaking for thirty days, heavier sales than for any month in 1919, thus swelling Cal ifornia's and the Twelfth Districts total subscriptions for 1919 consider ably, and showing us we'll to the front in per capita investment in War Saw ings Securities as compared with the other Federal Reserve Districts"
 The 1920 sales of Government se- curities have started off well. Mrs. Florence I. Meyer, who is in charge of a War Savings station in the An glo & London Paris National Bank in San Francisco, reports sales as nign as $9O0 a day since the first ot the year and averaging somewhat over $7O0.
 In addition to its War Savings se- curities sales during 1920, the Gov ernment is stressing the advantages of investment in Liberty Bonds at their present prices and advising per sons, especially small investors who have some ready money, to snap up the bonds which are selling at various figures somewhat below par, not be- cause they are worth less than thelr face value plus accrued interest, but because temporarily there happen to he many of them thrown on the mar ket by spectators who are forced to liouidate assets. Financial experts are agreed that within short time every issue of Liberty Bonds will not only reach par but no doubt bring premium.

What the Preacher Said

While the editor of a certain news paper was away from home for awhile, he left the paper in charge of minister of the gospel. During the minister's stay in the office the following letter came from a sub scriber: q know very well that paid my subscription to your paper the last time I was in your office. If get any more letters from you as I received last week will come in and maui hI out of you." The min ister answered the note like this: "I have been trying to get that out of the editor for ten years, and if you will come down and maui it out of him then, my dear sir, I have twen- ty members of my church will let you operate on."-Exchange.

HABIT

Ben Franklin is our great example of thrift. He wrote more on it and wrote 1t better than any other man we know. He began practicing thrift when he was 12 years of age, and he prac. ticed 1t and wrote on it all his life. He became the richest man in Amer ica in his day. richest not only in money but in health, brains, sanity, good cheer, influence. He was scien- tist, business man. linguist, a diplo- mat and philosopher. He always paid his way. He founded the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania, founded the first public library in America, organized an insurance company, pretty nearly cap tured the lightnings, invented spec tacles, manufactured the first cook stove, went to France and borrowed money on which Washington fought the War of the Revolution; and the basis of all the strength and excellence of Benjamin Franklin lay in the fact that very early in life he acquired the habit of thrift.
 Thrift is a habit A habit is a thing you do unconsciously or auto matically without thought. We are ruled by our habits. When habits are young they are like lion cubs, soft fluffy funny frolicson little animals They grow day by day. Eventually they rule you. Choose ye this day the habit ye would have rule over you. The habit of thrift is simpl. the habit which dictates that you shall earn more than you spend. In other words, thrift is the habit that provides that you spend less than you earn.
