VICE PRESIDENT SEES IN THRIFT
HABIT SIGN GOOD CITIZENSHIP
Saving Of Money, He Says, Is Founda-
ton Of Character-Spendthrift Is
Of No Value TO the Community.

One Of the banks Of Minneapolis re-
Gently conducted thrift campaign to
encourage the people OF that city in
the practice Of systematic saving of
money and wise investment. News
papers Of the city devoted much space
to the subject, and considerable pub
licity was given to message from
the Hon. Calvin Coolidge, Vice Presi-
dent Of the United States. The Vice
President said:
1.-The conveniences of modern civil
ization have been secured solely by
means of the accumulation of capital
Modern conditions have been estab-
lished by saving of money. 1t is this
which has built great cities, laid out
spacious avenues, established rail-
roads, provided gas and electricity for
daily use, and developed the whole
econamic system of modern society.
Money is not to be saved for its own
sake, but by reason of the additional
power or service that 1t gives to its
possessor The combined savings of
the people are the only support of
modern civilization.
There is another reason TO rsaying
money and that Is because in most
cases it is likewise the foundation CT
character. 1t is the result OF self
control, in the first instance. and Of
the use of sound judgment. A spend
thrift is of no value to himself or to
the community in which he lives. The
dissipation of capital is the dissipation
of the power for public service. The
accumulation of capital is the accum-
ulation of power which results not
only in serving ones self but in the
promotion of the public welfare.
Where there is more capital there is
more employment and higher wages.
Among the real benefactors OF the
race have been tohse who, by self-con-
troll and organization, have accumu-
lated capital which has been put to
the service of their fellow men in the
ways already mentioned.
Saving is representative of good
citizenship. 1t is difficult to imagine
thrifty man who is a bad citizen.
There is nothing that so contributes
to the stability of society as the gen.
eral ability to own home, which re-
suits from saving"
