The Secret Of Wealth.

Jus. Why We Have grea1 fortunes
in this country, and why some people
are always in debt while others have
trouble spending their money, may
be forcibly brought TO our attention
by the power OF interest" More
money is paid annually in Interest
than IS needed to pay the debt of this
government for the World War. We
are used to reading of billions and
they mean little to us. But here is a
concrete example tina should result
in every man, woman and child open
ing 4 bank account and starting
money at interest. A certain resident
in Ded1am, in 1888, deposited So in
the Dedham Institution for Savings
He lef the money there at compound
interest without depositing any more
or without. Withdrawing any hing, A
few days ago he closed out his ac
count, Withdrawing $2S1,93, or more
than Sc times the amour that he had
deposited. during much of that time
interest rates were much below those
paid by the bhnks today. Everybody
Knows that ahe paying of interest on
mortgages, taxes. leans and other sim.
liar items soon amounts to consid-
cradle sum. The interest payments
by every municipality Is one Of its
heaviest burdens in its tax budget.
Most OF us are let ing somebody elses
money do our WORK and we are paying
literally for it. Why not join the
ether class and put a few dollars at
work at compound interest and see
what fascina ing game it is-thls
game of lie ting your money work for

L. H. & ST. L. r. r. TO HELP

The first step towards building a
water-works system in Cloverport
was taken at the regular meeting of
the City Council held Monday night
when by a unanimous vote Mayor
John A. Barry was authorized to call
an election for the issuing of bonds
to help raise the necessary funds for
this enterprise.
ing the election was easily disposed
Of Mr.. John d Babbage, editor and
publisher of The Breckenridge News
agreed to print the ballots free, and
several of the citizens volunteered to
fill the election officers place without
charge for their services.
Among the citizens who were pre-
sent at the council meeting and lend
ing their support to the water-works
proposition were, +. {. Ferry, Mas
ter Mechanic of the l. II. & St. l..
shops, Paul Lewis, Cashier. Breckin-
ridge-Bank of Cloverport. ID. B.
Phelps and Jno. d. Babbage.
Mr.. Ferry stated that the l.. H. &
St. L. X. X Company would do its
part to help the city get water-works
and fire protection, and that the local
shops would get its water supply from
the city.
Movement to Reorganize
Commercial Club.
The next movement on foot is to
reorganize the Cloverport CONNER
cial Club at once 1t is believed with
a good vigorous club not only can it
help to put the water-works PROPOSE
ton through. but it may be able to
get other enterprises located here. 1t
is therefore imperative that the citi-
zeps re-organize the Commercial Club
as soon as possible, and if the women
of the town would organize a Civic
Improvement League, Cloverport
could reap rich benefits from two
such live wire organizations.
