Japanese Forced Out of
Big Tourney; 1ilden
Opens Title Play To-day

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. s.-Ali was in
readiness here to-day for the start of
the fortieth annual Inns national
championship lawn tennis singles, on
the historic turf of the Germantown
Cricket Club, at Mannheim, at noon to
morrow. Philadelphia awaits the open
ing of what holds every promise of
being one of the most spectacular and
bitterly fought championship tests in
the history of the game, with silent
prayer that William I. Tilden I'd, the
worlds title holder and playing through
national champion, will successfully
defend his laurels.
If the tall son of Philadelphia still
retains his national crown at tie end
of the nine days of furious strife that
lie ahead of him there will be none to
galnsay him the right to rank as the
worlds mightiest exponent of the
game.
1t viii be particularly gruelling
test. that "Big Bill' must face next
week, after his early round matches
have been played tomorrow and on
Saturday.
In the third round of play the
"Wimbledon Wonder" will renew his
sensational battle with little zenzo
Shlmidzu, of Japan, who has twice car
ried the champion to five desperately
close sets. If he survives that meeting
prove his most terrific struggle in the
tournament, and one which is liable to
decide the championship.
Johnston May Face Richards
Either William NJ. Johnston, of Cali
fornia national title holder of 1915
and 1919, and Tilden's most bitter rival
ards, of New York, who conquered Til
den at Providence in July. should bar
the champions path in this bracket.
Johnston has no opposition on .he way
worthy OF consideration, while Rich
ards will find the veteran Walter T.
Hayes, of Chicago. as his most serious
rival before reaching the third round
and Johnston.
| look to see the little Californian
come through against Richards in spite
OF the latter's brilliant tournament
record earlier in the season. Johnston,
| believe, hits too powerfully and is too
great court strategist for the New
York boy at this stage. although Rich
ards has potenuialities that render him
capable of almost any feat, provided he
happens to hit his top form
Then, in the fourth round, we should
see the greatest singles match of the
entire season. for it will be Tilden
against Johnston, East against West
the two greatest players in the world
pitted one against the other
1t is not my intention. at this early
stage, to hazard prophecy as to who
is likely to win this tennis battle of the
century" The men are so closely
matched, on past performances, that
two or three "breaks" of the playing
luck in favor of one or the other may
be sufficient to decide the issue Let
lis wait for two or three days until we
see how these two supermen Of tennis
are approaching their supreme test.
Murray Likely to Surprise
Robert Lindley Murray, of Niagara
Falls, former Californian and nation al
champion, should be the man to face
the winner in the fifth round, and it

Destitute peasants az Mitau, Latlvla,

When an American Red Cross unit
reached Mitau recently and opened up
headquarters in a vacant bank build.

ties were found heaped in corner.
They were beautifully engraved on
fine bond paper, but their value was
absolutely nothing. AS paper was
scarce, the crisp bonds and stocks were
utilized as wrapping paper by the Red
Cross workers.
If the safe deposit boxes and bureau
drawers and trunk trays of America
We're emptied. thousands of bales or
securities equally valueless would be
uncovered. Millions have been in
vested by Americans within the last
year in stocks which. are worth no
more than the securities of the de-
funct government Of Imperial Russia.
Some investors are continuing to buy
beautifully engraved certificates good
for nothing but wrapping paper at the

MORE THAN BILLION
HAS BEEN PUT INTO
SAVINGS SECURITIES
REDEMPTlONS ARE GROWING
SMALLER AS WISE INVESTORS
RECEIVE INTEREST ON
THEIR MONEY

More than one thousand million
dollars have been invested in Thrift
and War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings Certificates by wise and
thrifty persons in this country, &C
cording to an official report recently
compiled. OF this amount, over $780,
100000 is now outstanding, and in
vestments are steadily increasing. The
banner year, of course, was 1918, when
there was a strong patriotic appeal.
Total sales for 1918 were $971,913,-
600 During 1919, when the sales cam
paign was based on national thrift
ra,Eer than patriotism, $165306, 900
was brought into the Treasury, and in
1920 the total was $43,S92,O00. Re
demptions to date include $37S,254, 900
of the 1918 series, $33,441000 of the
1919 series, $SO8O,0O0 of the 1920 is.
sues and about $135.OO0 Of the 1921
series.
Officials of the savings division
point out that by far the greater pro-
portion of the redemptions are of the
1918 series, which indicates that the
more recent issues are being pur'
chased by individuals who plan to hold
them to maturity.
The certificates pay per cent. in
rerest, compounded quarterly, which is
equivalent to approximately ~ per
cent. if held for the full five years.
Those who present the certificates for
redemption prior to the maturity date
receive about 3 per cent. interest.

HARDING URGES
THRIFT AS AN
IMPERATIVE DUTY
SAYS RIGID AND SANE ECONOMY
MUST BE PRACuCED BY MA
TON TO RESTORE NOR
NAL CONDITIONS

The note struck by President Hard
ing in his address relative to the nee.
essity of putting our public house
hold in order" is one fraught with
meaning to millions of individuals in
this country who have made little eff
fort to put their private households in
good shape. The urge of thrift and
economy is strongest with too many
only when a financial pinch comes.
Yet this pinch will seldom be felt if,
as President Harding says, we prac-
tice "a rigid and yet sane economy
attended by individual prudence and
thrift which are so essential to this
trying hour and reassuring for the flu
ture."
Thrift is commendable at all times.
Individual financial emergencies arc
continually arising and to set ones
household in order by planning a pro-
gram of rigid yet sane economy, at
tended by individual prudence and
thrift" is to ward off the serious con-
sequences of such emergencies. Among
the millions OF American Wage-earnerS
those who were thrifty have been least
concerned about high prices or bust,
ness depression.
In getting a good work started, there
is no time like the present. And %sn
getting the good work of thrift and
economy started, there is nothing like
getting interested in the Savings
Movement of the United States Treas.
ury Department. The home of every
American citizen who needs to have
his household put in order will be hap
pier in all that that work can imply,
when the message of thrift and econ
omy of the Savings Movement reaches
