The Message
b of Franklin
n HIS, the anniversary of Benja-
min Franklin's birthday, is,
o,,;+o o,ornnr;o tal1 fba In


min Franklin's birthday, is,
quite appropriately, the be-
ginning Of National Thrift Week.
We say quite appropriately be-
cause of all the many virtues pos
sessed by Franklin none of them is
more worthy of emulation by the
people of this day and generation
than the practice of thrift--a prac-
tice which enabled him to start as
poverty-stricken tramp printer and
end his days as one of the wealthiest
and most influential men of his time.
One might properly ask, What
is thrift" and "Why do they start
a campaign to try to persuade me to
start bank account, own my own
home, make a budget, carry life in
shrance, pay my bills and make a
Wilt" These are fair questions
aid here is a fair answer:
.aiaS'Thrift is vision. Vision is
thrift"
Eat times the idea of starting a
bank account or taking out life in
surance or buying our own home,
Or making budgets, or wills, occurs
to all of us, but, with our usual
human frailty and procrastination,
we lack that quality of decision and
determination to crystalline the idea
into concrete action.
Therefore, a number of nationally
prominent men and women have
banded themselves together to con-
centrate the minds of Americans on
THE THINGS WE OUGHT TO DO
things that we owe it to ourselves
and to our relatives to do-and for
the next seven days they will preach
the gospel OF thrift, which is the
gospel of good sense, so as to focus
our attention on our plain duty.
Throughout National Thrift Week
you will find the bankers, insurance
men, real estate dealers and others
whose advice you will need ready
and willing to be of unusual service
to you. And-don It forget that friend
wife is one of the greatest little
fnanciers in all this world, and that
she can give you a tremendous lift
when it comes TO making up the
family budget.

Significance
Of Backs

~ the head of the National
League for the Amelioration
of the Dorsal Vertebrate, gives a
prize to the most beautiful back in
America.
Among the competitors there
figures a certain movie and stage
star whose dorsal presentment might
be actually characterized as "some
back!'' For we are informed that
she has it insured for a million
dollars.
Although this might be called by
the captious backward movement,
it is in reality a move in the right
direction.
There has been entirely too much
attention paid to the face.
After all, the face is a small por-
ton Of the human charm. And there
is no reason why one who happens
to be defective in this one little re-
spect and abounds in other beauties
such, for instance, as Trilby feet
or Katisha shoulder blade-should
be out of the running.
And so to the truth, as Talley
rand or somebody else said, that
words were used to conceal thoughts,
we might with equal justice add
that faces are trained in hypocrisy.
Most of us have entire control OF
our facial features. We can smile
when we wish to snarl. We can
look modestly down when we are
full of pride, and women have been
known to weep for a purpose.
But you cannot do that sort OF
thing with your back. Backs is
backs.
The character of people is quite
often determined by their resem-
blance to lower animals. And herein
it is our backs that betray us.
This truth has even entered into
our language. We speak of gentle
man having his back up, by which
we mean he resembles an angry cat.
Independence, courage, and all
such militancy is much better indi-
Gated by stiffening ones back than
by any sort of motion that can be
made with the mouth or the nose.
And the most eloquent gesture OF
humility is the bending of the back.
When we wish to do homage to the
duchess, we curve our spines and
kiss her finger tips. When we ap-
proach his majesty, we bend our
backs.
If humility is the browning virtue
of the wise, then surely the back,
which best expresses this, is most
glorious instrument.
It is the back that is really the
class symbol. For is it not the bur
den bearer of the world, alias the
proletariat, whose backs are bent
by the fat and pampered bourgeoisie
who sit upon them'
And, then, there is another thing.
Have you not often had back view
of woman walking along the street
and almost fallen in love with her,
only to have your dream shattered
when she turned aroundi And, we
ask, is this fair to the woman'
Was Shakespeare Wrong?
