THRIFT TALK.

Hez Thrifty is a wise young
duck who does not trust himself
to luck, but cultivates the
thrifty prank of putting money
in the bank. nv
''Be thrifty" is his wise advice,
"from every pay check save
slice, and you will be surprised
to know how fast your little
pile can grow.
He shows a sense of goodly
share who banks what money he
can spare, for dollars wisely
put in soak will keep a man from
going broke.
"Misfortune's apt to skip a
guy who has little cash laid
by. and thus it's well to Guilt
vaNe and carry out the saving
trait"
m. A. Lufburrow.

Veteran of Two Wars,
Returns to Old Work
(By Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Feb. 19- The Ameri-
can line steamship New York-a vet
eran of two wars, in the first of which
she served her country as an armed
cruiser and in the second as an armed
transport-has again resumed CONNER

yards where her war equipment was
removed and her passenger accomo-
dations replaced, she will leave here
today under her old Captain, w. J.
Roberts, with passengers and cargo

The New York is credited with the
honor of being the first American ship
to leave a European port for America
in defiance of Germany's submarine
lane routs for ships in the proclamat-
ion on Feb. 1, 1917. Not only did the
New York come through, following not
the lane prescribed by Germany, but
the direct route selected by Captain
Roberts, but she also made the trip
without the German prescribed VERT.
