saving some money.

Another large manufacturing COM
pany maintains a saving plan that is
based on taking out certain amount
from the employees pay envelope
each week, with the employees con-
sent, of course, and depositing it to
his account in savings bank. Be-
cause it makes saving automatic, once
the man decides to start, this plan has
been signally successful. In one Of
the plants of this company, employ
ing several hundred, every employee
has a savings account of this sort. In
another plant of this company, LOO
of the 1000 people employed are saw
ing regularly.
These results show what can be &C
complished by making money-saving
dramatic-and easy. Perhaps we all
could adopt the same methods and in
crease our savings by making a game
of the thing.

Savings, Dramatized.

Possibly no man will deny that saw
ing money is a matter of habit, and
that the reason why so few men make
any worth while savings is because
they have never acquired the habit.
It seems to us that the thing needed,
if more men are to acquire fund Tor
old age, is to have the bankers, the
philanthropists, and all the others IN
terested in having people save money,
make the saving habit easy and attrac-
tive, make it dramatic.
During the war nearly everybody
bought Liberty bonds, because it was
made easier to buy than not to buy,
and because it was the patriotic and
right thing to do. It was dramatized,
and made easy.
In the same way, the Christmas
Savings Clubs have been tremendous
ly successful in getting people to save
for definite purpose, because the
subject was brought to their attention
right at the time when the need for
having money at Christmas time was
easily realized.
In many progressive manufacture
ing plants the need for savings has
been emphasized and a definite plan
for easy saving outlined, with the re-
suit that very large part of the men
employed started to save-and have
kept it up.
In one plant they have what they
call the "$1 900 Club" This compa-
ny maintains an employees newspa-
per, and the employees are constant
ly kept interested in the ISL 900 Club"
through its columns, with the result
that most of them who have started
the saving plan have stuck to it. This
plan calls for deposits of $3.50 per
months from each member, and at
the end of 100 months the member is
given the $1,000. The employee can
take out as many of these member
ships as he can carry, receiving the
$1,000 for each one after the 100
months. The name of the club, and
the fact that the man is striving to
reach a definite goal, give the plan
something of the nature of a game.
and make the saving much easier and
more interesting than if the man was
simply laying aside so much each
week or month with the vague idea of

The Bathtub.

No doubt it would shock many of
the present day inhabitants of Boston
THE Hub Of the Universe'-to know
that their city of culture and learn
ing, actually passed an ordinance
along about 1916 forbidding the use of
bathtubs except on medical advice.
However, Boston was not alone in
its fight against the evil" of the
bathtub; about this same time, the
legislature Of Virginia levied tax Of
thirty dollars year on all bathtubs
erected within the state, and very hea-
Wy water rates were laid on them. In
l643 the Common Council of Philadel-
phia considered an ordinance to pre-
vent any such bathing between Nov
ember and March and the ordinance
failed by only two votes.
To most of US, this resentment Of the
then modern bathtub, upon the part of
our ancestors less than eighty years
ago, sounds like fiction; yet the facts
in the case, prove that our relations
were all wrought up over this new
tangled cOntrivance, that was thought
to be injurious to ones health.
The trouble all started-it seems
humorous to US now-back in 1912
when Adam Thompson, a wealthy
grain and cotton dealer Of Cincinnati
returned from London with the idea
and had a local cabinet-maker con-
struct a bathtub in his home.
The tub, built of mahogany, measur-
ed seven feet long and four feet wide;
it was so heavy-weighing seventeen
hundred and fifty pounds-that it was
10 ~, e
the room in which it stood.
Modern plumbing, of course, was
unknown in Adam Thompson's day,
so he had to erect large tank in his
attic to keep the bathtub supplied with
water-and it took six men to keep
the tank pumped full
And then Thompson faced another
difficulty; the water was too cold for
winter bathing, so he arranged a coil
of pipes in the chimney, so that the
heat from the large CRATE fire warm
ed the water sufficiently to make the
new sport comfortable and pleasant.
ThOmpson's bathtub created wide
open discussion in the Cincinnati pa
pers as well as those elsewhere as to
whether it was dangerous to health;
many doctors were "sure" in their
statements that at invited rheumatic
fever, and inflammation of the lungs"
Until 1850, the White House did not
contain a bathtub. In that year Mil
lard Fillmore, who had seen Thomp-
sons tub in Cincinnati, invited bids
for White House bathtub. It was
made by Harper and Gillespie, Phila-
delphit, of thin cast iron.
The tub remained in the White
House until Cleveland became Presi-
dent, when it was replaced by more
modern one.

Plants for Christmas.

Other things being equal, it is bet
ter to buy plants near ones home than
to travel afar. Do not be tempted,
even by cheap offers, to go miles
away, for counting car fares, packing,
expressage and lost time, the ultimate
cost is very likely to be more than If
you paid good deal higher price at
home Of course it may happen that
one grower or florist has large stock
of some one thing and can sell at a
low rate, but dealers usually have an
understanding with one another es-
pecially regarding holiday prices, and
for weeks before the holiday season
they have been balancing stock with
each other, so that the better quality
plants are of an almost fixed value.

ONLY 44O VOTES CAST AT
LAST GENERAL Election

Only 440 votes were cast in Pow
der River county at the last general
election two years ago. The weather
on election day, however, was decid-
edly inclement and but few voters
went to the polls. 1t is ON the basis
of this vote that calculations are
made this year for independent can
didates getting their names on the
ballot. The law specifies that 5 per
cent of the number of names cast for
any particular office shall be neces-
sary to file .as an independt candidate
for election. so that 25 names signed
to any Independent candidates petit
lion will suffice. From reports, it is
not necessary for the 25 signatures
to come from more than one pre-
cinct. Independent candidates petit
tions must be filed with the county
clerk at least twenty days prior to
the general election. which this year
falls on Tuesday. November 2.

ARTESlAN WE'LL At CEMETERY
OIL SHAl.E 4 COAL

An artesian we'll being drilled at
Valley View cemetery at Broadus by
V. T. Red6ing has penetrated oil
shale and coal veins. according to
the log record Al IL depth of 2n0
feet an oil shaie was encountered
which continued so feet down A
tive-foot coal vein was punctnred at
a depth OF 50 feet and another L.
foot coal vein at 10 feet. The we'll
is now down to a depth OF 400 feet
and up to the present time it has
failed to encounter water only in a
slight degree. This may he explained
from the fact that the location is on
an elevation above Broadus. Five
other wells III Broadus have previ.
ously been brought in With good
water flows at depth ranging from
400 to 600 feet and the driller is
resolved to go to the later depth in
the we'll at the cemetery if necessar ~
to touch the water sands.
