USE IT: DON'T LOSE 1T

When il comes TO spelling. there is
mighty little difference between us
ing your head" and Losing your
head" But when 1t comes to per-
sonal finance. there is all the differ
ence between prosperity and disaster
Some lose their heads in prosperity
and some in times OF disaster One is
equally fatal with the other. Every
able-bodied American can make
money. but every American does not
HAVE money because he loses his
head instead of using it,
The only sound principle of per-
sOnal finance is TO use both your head
and your money and to lose neither.
You work for your money but your
money will work far more effectively
for you through investment If you use
your head.
There are many ways in which you
may use your head and still lose your
money. But there is one sure way of
using your head which will render
your money absolutely safe and at the
same time put il to profitable use
That way is 10 set aside each week a
