During the filming of one OF the

Object Lesson in Thrift

An ingenious professor of mathe-
maIlcs has figured out that one cent
invested at the beginning of the Chris
tan era Q,919 years ago. at a rate
of interest equal to the government
Liberty bonds, that is. Ala per cent,
with interest compounded to date,
would make 100000 globes of solid
gold, each the weight of the earth.
The earth weighs six and twenty-one

its Accommodations, reduced to a mini
