ing Of the armistics was taken by too
many people to mean that II was no
longer necessary or desirable To save
anything. The lessons in thrift learn
cd during the war were forgotten and
the reaction from that program has
had much to do with the era Of reck-
less extravagance the country has wit
nssssd during the past year. Not. only
the high wages paid to labor and other
workers, but the fact that millions Of
people had savings in government se-
curities, acquired during the war,
made this wave Of extravagance posi-
Bile. Many people have been plunging
not only with their wages, but they
have been spending their accumulated
savings. which were represented by
Liberty Bonds and War Savings
Stamps Despite the governments adj
vice, great numbers have cashed in on
these securities, and squandered the
money. One way to stop the wave Of
is for owners Of Liberty
Bonds and Saving Certificates to hold

present era Of initiation. After q year
4 unrestrained spending, during
which many small fortunes tied up in
bonds have been dissipat-
d, there should be widespread recog-
ition now Of the folly of such
curse. The desirability for thrift
hould be readily apparent to all, but
specially to those who have squan-
cred their reserves and are dependent

ffset by the abnormal cost Of living.
