SMALL TRACT OF LAND BRINGS
Millions - Rental of Broadway Lot
Higest In History Of Manhattan.

New York, June 8. - Manhattan
Island, once sold by an Indian for
$24 and few drinks Of "flrewater,"
has become so valuable that tiny
plot only 81 feet along Broadway re-
Gently was leased for an annual rem
tai Of about $33 a square foot. Real
estate men said this was the highest
figure for which land was ever rented
here
The site Is at Broadway and 34th
street, and extends about SO feet
along the latter Several years ago
a department store wished to buy
the corner plot, having procured the
land on both sides, as the site for a
sky-scraper. But the owner would
not sell, even for s1,000,000, and the
big store had to erect it's home
around the small building.
"A four-story structure, housing on
the ground floor busy cigar store,
still remains on the valuable corner
lot, on all sides lofty buildings rear
ing tnelr DulKS OIL steel and stone.
The new lessee, who will pay $3,5O0,-
600 for rent, taxes and other ex-
penses over Il 21-year period, plans
to erect a narrow sky-scraper on the
triangular plot. A candy-making cor
poration will occupy the building
Twenty-one years ago Robert S.
Smith, who owns the property, start
led realty men by paying $3S7,0O0
for the land, which has only 1850
square feet Of area. He had come to
America with $5.75 from his native
Russia in 1880. When he bought the
property he was told such small
strip of land was not worth the price
and could never be profitable.
Within few hours after the So
100000 lease was drawn up another
candy concern offered $4,000 more
year for the land, but 1T was too
late.

SMALL CAPITALISTS
RAPIDLY INCREASING
GROWING NUMBER OF MODEST
INVESTORS CONSIDERED SIGN
OF NATIONAL PROS
PERlTY

One of the most hopeful signs for
the future Of this nation is the ever
increasing list Of small investors. This
movement, which gained such grea
stimulus through the issue OF Liberty
Bonds, Is now continuing with added
momentum. Having once tested the
Joys Of coupon clipping, having learned
the rewards OF economy and thrift, the
man Of small means has become an
lnveteraie investor
Never before has the absolute safety
OF investment In government securities
been 80 coupled with opportunity for
sure profit as at the present time. LIB
erty Bonds, Treasury Savings Certifi.
Gates and Savings Stamps offer the
chance for every man, woman and
child to join the ranks Of the capitalists
and to do so without Inconvenience or
danger Of loss.
Equally important Is the effect on
the habits OF the people. Tho
movement strikes directly at the ma.
tional vice OF extrvagance. Already
1t has done much to change the Unit
ed States from a nation Of spenders to
a nation OF savers and the end Is not

Jewelry Returned After Five Years

A Dispatch from Anderson says:
package Of jewelry which was
stolen five years ago has been re-
turned to Mrs. r. l.. Robinson by
mail. Across one end of the pack
age was scrawled the name Carrie
Cats. The jewelry was two rings,
pin, shirt studs and scarf pin.
They were taken from a dresser in a
bed room. The value Is $3.50. There
is no postmark and no clue what
ever to who sent them back. Mr..
Robinson says that whoever the
thief was he evidently made haul
at more than one place and got some
or the jewelry mixed, as the scarf
pin returned to him is not the one
stolen.

SCHOOL SAVERS ARE
DOING SPLENDID WORK
IN THRIFT CAMPAIGN
MANY SOCIETIES FORMED AND
MEMBERS ARE NOW BUsiLY
,."f''TWATcHiNo THEIR MONEY
GROW

Teachers and children are enthu.
siastic over the new thrift spirit In
the school room, which has already
resulted not only In giving novel and
practical interest to time honored sub.
jects, but in the organization Of az.
proximately 1000 school savings
clubs in the schools OF this district.
Last year the gross sales Of Thrift and
War Savings Stamps and Treasury
Savings Certificates in the fifth dis.
trict amounted to more than $2.316.0OO
during the school session, and 1t Is
hoped that when the figures are conf
piled for the 1920.1921 session, an
even better record will be shown.
Thousands Of penny and nickel say.
ings books, text leaflets in thrift and
wall charts for showing the records Of
savings clubs have been mailed out to
schools asking for them. Boys and
girls are learning to put their money
into government savings securities M
stead Of wasting 1t, and in order that
they may not look upon savings rs an
end in itself, and gain false concep-
ton Of thrift as form Of stinginess.
they are encouraged to save for soms
definite, worthwhile object such, for
instance, as college education or
business capital.
Saving is only . third Of the game,
however, for the youngsters earn much
Of the money they save and invest In
Thrift and Savings Stamps. Wedding
tobacco, running errands, clerkins In
stores, washing dishes, raising vege.
tables and live stock are some Of the
callings in which school savings club
members engage during summer yaca.
tons and after school hours, and keen
is the rivalry among them.
Even the smallest tots are taking an
active part In the Earn and Save
movement, and patriotic teachers who
understand the value of thrift as an
element Of good citizenship are deyot-
Ing their time and thought to making
1t part Of their educational work, and
are also encouraging the organization
Of savings clubs by the children them
selves. They realize that, they are
rendering real service to the countr!
by teaching sound economic thought
practical patriotism and prosperity.

A Farmers Daughter.
I'll tell you about the farmers girl;
She has much work to do,
She cannot wear her hair in curl
AS her town girl sisters do.
She cannot go to school much
And get great education,
But she knows how to do
Amy kind Of work on the old plan
tation.
Her smiling face Is always sweet
Because she does not paint;
And when she's told some work to do
She does not say, "I can't"
She simply says, "I'll try
My very best to do
And then starts in cheerfully-
She always succeeds, too.
She can harness the team and drive
to town;
Though 1t may be a shock to you,
She can run the reaper and gather
corn,
And be lady, too.
She proves blessing to her mother,
She's fayorite with dad;
And when she has visitors
She tries to make them glad.
Her education is limited;
For it she has to strive;
But she'll fill her mission in life
AS sure as you're alive.
She takes exercise, too,
And she can sew and cook
But she did not have to go to school
To learn it from book.
This story, true, is very brief.
Describing the farm girl pure,
And II you will only visit her,
You'll find these facts are sure.
Now, town cousins, you may say,
81 don't believe that's true"
But If you would prove 1t to me
Just let me hear from you.
