many person has been discouraged
before ever starting on any regular
thrift system.
In reality, thrift brings the deep
happiness of contentment and the
wholesome eXhilaration of success.
If you want proof that there is real
joy in thrift, set aside small sum
each day for a given length of time.
Make the amount small enough so that
you will be sure that you can keep up
your experiment during the prescribed
time without subjecting yourself to
serious inconvenience. The result will
be that you will gain more happiness
from that small sum of money thus
saved than you could get from the
same amount of money no matter how
you might spend it.
Learn to save the pennies. The dol
lars will take care of themselves.

What Is a Penny Besides Copper

There is an old Spanish proverb
which says: "He that does not save
pennies will never have pounds"
1t is safe to say that most persons
who do not save money neglect to do
so because they feel they cannot save
enough to be worth while. And this
is where they make a grave mistake.
1t is better to save a penny a day
than nothing at all.
Even though one might be otherwise
extravagant and wasteful, even If a
very insignificant sum is laid away at
regular intervals some progress at
least is being made. 1t is better to
practice on one per cent. thrift than not
to practice it at all, because he who
practices on one per cent. thrift than
not to practice it at all, because he who
practices one per cent. thrift will soon
and then into the five per cent. class
and on up the scale until eventually
he will become a one hundred per cent.
thrift exemplar.
1t is regrettable that there has been
such a vast amount of mlsconception
fostered in this country regarding
thrift by persons and agencies VINO
have only looked at the subject from a
superficial viewpoint. Encouragement
has been given to the belief that the
man or woman who practices thrift
must be prepared to live bleak and
iovless existence. Undue stress has
been laid to self-denial, the elimination
of all pleasure and the surrender OF
every form of diversion. AS result
of such widespread misunderstanding

$. Smith. manager of a local moving

A new policy has been inaugurated

After viewing the show they walk to
the door where a box with a slot in
it has been installed. If they liked
the performance they drop thirty
cents in the box There is no atten-
dant to stop the patrons if they
don't care to drop the money in the
box. There is a girl stationed at a
little booth just inside the lobby to
provide change for the patrons who
want the correct amount.
Manager Smith says that practi-
cally all the theatre patrons pay. The
only ones who don't drop their money
into the box, according to Smith

that the coming event will exceed

tunity for saving.
Wilmington Dollar Days" are
unique in merchandise selling, be-
cause local merchants have con-
Quoted these affairs with satisfaction
TO their patrons and to themselves
whereas in many cities where the
same events have been staged, they
have proven so unsuccessfully that
they have been discontinued. Local
merchants believe that the secret OF
success here lies in the fact that
people are honestly treated, and that
no attempt ever has been made to
take advantage Of the public.
The Chamber OF Commerce has re-
ceived a large number OF requests
from other cities for detailed expla-
nations Of the methods OF handling
this event so successfully, and wher-
ever local methods have been em-
ployed, satisfaction has followed for
both merchant and people.
During the February Dollar Day
sales il was necessary for some
stores to close their doors several
times during the shopping hours in
order to permit the salcspeople to re-
arrange stocks and obtain a brief
rest
Wide publicity will be given the
coming fall event throughout Della
ware, Pennsylvania, Maryland and
New Jersey. The automobile bus
lines radiating from this city to al
most every town i'm Wilmington
trade territory will bring many peo-
pie here by opening new opportun-
tiles for transportation, and motor
parties from other points to VIII
