DOWN TO BRASS TACKS
Few RoCk-Bottom Facts Which
Are Worth Consideration.

BY EDGAR TAYLOR WHEELoCk.
Copyright, 1921. American Press League)
No man ever built a home or estab-
llshed himself in business with the
money he had previously wasted
The business of this country is
largely transacted by the exchange Of
evidences OF credit A savings ac-
count is a basis of credit
a man need not be stingy in order
TO practice thrift. lie need only ex-
ercise common sense and quit wasting
that which he has worked 50 hard to
get.
Webster's dictionary says that thrift,
economy, profit, gain and prosperity
are synonymous terms, which is equiya-
lent TO saying that they all mean the
same. thing.
II was the savings Of the American
people that bought Sl8,50O, 100000
Liberty and Victory bonds, which
helped to pay our share of the cost
of the world war, 1t was thrift that
furnished the money.
Thrift has cleared and broken every
acre Of farm land, erected every build
ing, constructed every railroad, opened
every mine and financed every bank,
commercial establishment and manu-
featuring plant in the United States.
Thrift has many angles. 1t can be
made an interesting study; one that
can be pursued in the market and
kitchen, as well as in apportioning all
daily expenditures. A weekly or
monthly budget viii serve as an aid
to study.
A gaudy SlSdollar silk shirt does
not add one cent to a mans earning
ability. If 1t contributes to his pleas
ure, or his vanity or If 1t may be
taken as his own estimate of his moral
and intellectual measure, he must be
graded with the peacock "A bird with
less than a thlmbleful of brain.
Life liberty and the pursuit OF
happiness" are not the only inallen-
able rights of an American citizen He
also has right to make fool Of
himself by wasting his substance in
riotous living or carelessly spending
all that he earns as fast rs he earns
II; but he must not expect to be re-
Spected or to deserve pity when adj
versity gets him.

COLONA YOUTH
LOSES AN ARM
IN AN ACCIDENT

Earl Erickson, aged Is years. son
of Alfred Arickson. Colona farmer,
lost an arm yesterday as the re-
suit of hunting accident. which
occurred when the shotgun he car
ried was accidentally discharged.
Earl, who was alone at the time
he was shot, says that the gun
went off when he fell. The entire
vclley entered his right arm.
He was rushed to the Lutheran
hospital, Moline. where the arm
was amputated between the wrist
and the elbow by DR.. G. F. Johnson
of East Moline.
The youth was in the barnyari
when he stumbled and fell. He ran
to the house and his grandmother
gave first aid until the physician
arrived. The arm was SO badly
mutilated that there was no pos
bility of saving it, physicians said.
