The suggestion Of PTesident.elecs
Harding, made TO Senator Knox, Of
Pennsylvania, and to Z. B. Mclean.
in charge Of local inaugural eere-
monies, that his Inauguration on
March Z be made very simple and
thrifty has been accepted very gen.
orally as q wise and patriotic move.
Il will certainly be an innovation
TO lnaugurats a President Of the
United States in . thrifty way, but
it indicates very clearly the trend Of
the times.
Keeping q lot Of money in the
United States Treasury instead Of
wasting Il on ga show" Is very much
more practical, and the people At
large will recognize that President
elect Harding proposes to carry out
the pledges he made during his
campaign.

The National Vice.

The National Vice.
Our national vice is extravaganza.
We have many people who resent
the TACT that other people have ac-
eumulated wealth and they have
not, and yet there are dozens Of
men / have known from boyhood
Who have consistently spent every
thing which has come INTO their
hands and were temperamentally
50 constituted that they would
have spent every cent they re-
ceived, no matter how much It
might have been.
A Fool Question.
Il may seem like q fool ques-
ton, but the man who has no
capital and resentS the fact that
others have should seriously ask
himself:
"How long will L take me to
get rich Il continue 70 spend
everything get3"
Conserving and Spending.
A determination to save, il car

National Resources.

Many people are discouraged
from practising thrift In the belief
that all Of the wealth that can be
accumulated has been accumu-
lated This is ridiculous. Nobody
knows accurately at this time
what the accumulated wealth of
the entire country is, but rela-
lively it is quite small when meas
ured by rational standards For
centuries we have been converting
the natural resources OF this coun-
try, which cost us nothing, into
wealth, and yet the entire amounts
laid by which represent our accu-
INFLATED wealth, both private and
public, would not be sufficient to
support US on our present scale OF
living for a period of ten years,
even assuming we could convert
this wealth without loss from the
form in which il now exists into
the things we would need to live
on. In less than ten years every
thing, including the house over
our heads, would have to be sold
TO furnish US with what we con-
sumo.

What Thrift Does.

Here is another example: II the
workers Of the country should
save 10 per cent. Of their salaries
and wages, and this we're invested
at 6 per cent, interest, they would
in q single generation accumulate
more wealth. than has been accu-
mulated IN all Of these centuries
and all OF these generations.
Here is still another example:
II one family had come TO this
country at the time Jamestow
was settled with a capita "
$1,000, and this fund, toget lar
with its procee Is, had been CON
tinually invested at 6 per cent, ever
since, this one family alone would
now nave a greater wealth than
our entire accumulation Of wealth.
Every one working for better
morals, better citizenship, better
cOndi ions OF enArity subjects, can
perhaps attain the des red emu
more quickly by working to make
thrift universal than by working
along his present lines.

Rich and Poor.
The fact that laying by and IN

later a pleasure, and often become
q mania, Is one reason why, on
one hand, we have many people
who are quite rich and. on the
other hand, a great many more
people who never have anything

where opportunities are very n .ly

House and President OF the Senate
as the law requires.
"The Republican House presented
the amazing spectacle Of quitting
work after giving only three days
to the real work on the session and
quitting at time when not one ap-
preparation bill for the support and
conduct Of the State Government or
the penal institutions, schools or
courts Of the State had been passed
and perfected in both houses, and
quitting at a time when it was only
necessary to stay on the Job three
or four hours longer to finish the
work of the Session.
"ln excusing his act in permitting
the House to quit at sUch a time the
Speaker stated that he could not
keep the Republican members in
session on $500 per day any longer
and that, an extra session to finish
the work must be called so that they
could receive $500 per day. Such
course on the part Of the Republi.
cans results in the loss Of practically
all the work that has been done
during the past session and presents
most perfect instance Of utter dis.
