A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
BY 5. W. sTRAUs
President 81 American Society for Thrift

People often imagine that economy
means a bondage, and that il re-
stricts them in the full enjoyment
Of life's advantage and blessings.
On the contrary economy and thrift
open a direct road to independence
and liberty
Independence through thrift, would
be good motto to keep constantly
in mind~
Economy wrote DR.. Samuel
Johnson, els the parent of integrity,
Of liberty and ease and the beauteous
sister of temperance, of cheerfulness
and health"
The value and satisfaction of
liberty and independence, so general
ly unrecognized in the bloom and
vigor of youth, looms larger as the
years advance and we begin to crave
freedom from the seryitude which
always goes hand in hand with
poverty and dependence upon others.
The ways of extravaganza and
waste, which appear so inviting at
first, soon begin to narrow down and
present the terrifying prospect of
penury.
But it is possible to avoid this
gloomy outlook in the afternoon of
| life.
Systematic economy, and preeau-
ton against waste and extravaganza
in the days of prosperity, win pre-
vent this unhappy condition in
later years.
It is not necessary that one should
have had the advantage of a good
education or even possess greater
opportunities than other persons in
order to achieve this freedom.
Waste, in fact, is sometimes the re-
suit of too much imaginary independ-
ence among those who are fortunate
at the beginning of life. Great
ability to earn, and rapid advance
ment, sometimes destroys the true
perception of happiness and success.
Do not contemplate thrift as a
sacrifice of personal liberty. It's
consistent and regular practice pro-
vide the only way one can attain
genuine liberty and complete full
fillment of the ultimate objects Of
life.

Sanasarium Physician Resigns.

Announcement was made this week
T to the effect that DIR. NJ. s. Hosmer,
who has been the experimenting
/ physician at Pureair Sanatorium
since that institution was erected by
the counties of Ashland, Bayfield,
and Iron, had rendered his resigna-
| ton 10 the Board of Trustees of
that institution. The announcement
followed a meeting of the board held
Tuesday at Pureair.
The resignation of DR.. Hosmer is
in accordance with his own desires,
and follows general plan he has
had in mind since taking the place
two or three years ago. Last year
he presented his resignation and it
was accepted upon his request, but
was held over for final action pend
ing the time when the institution
would reach the stage in its develop
ment when resident physician was
necessary. Not having the time to
devote to the institution as such
resident physician, and the institu-
ton now being in need of such at
tendant, DR.. Hosmer requested the
board Of trustees Tuesday that they
secure such resident physician and
relieve him of the duties he has been
performing.
Preceding its construction, and
during the past two years DR..
Hosmer has been most instrumental
in promoting activity in the fight to
stamp out tuberculosis and his SER
wees have been most valuable to the
medical profession and to the public
in that respect.

Ye Editor and Force



The cost of living is an old and
threadbare subject, yet it bears
heavily upon each home every day.
1t has been high enough for the past
year to cause profound discomfort,
and now according to many prophets
it is destined to 90 higher yet. The
tendency has been slightly upward
for number Of months.
Nevertheless, it is a good deal be-
low the peak Of the boom times of
1920. The National industrial con-
ference board finds that living costs
October Is were 81 per cent above
July 1914, but they were still 20
per cent below July 1920.
While there may be some little
further advance, yet there seems no
legitimate reason why the price
level should come anywhere near
that Of 1920 At that time popular
extravaganza made 1t easy for pro.
ducers to raise prices. Goods were
not being turned out fast enough tc
supply the demand Many manu-.
features put up their figures with this
idea Of discouraging purchases. They
had more orders than they coulC
possibly turn out and they were EN-
barrassed and bothered by the clamoi
Of purchasers to have stuff delivered
TO keep business down to the point
where they could handle it, some Of
them raised prices above a point tina
would have yielded handsome pro
fit. II was poor policy. and it made
the crash worse when it came
But many other people in their plac,
would have done the same thing
Free spending by the people CAV
the proflteers big opportunity 4
ask any prices they saw fit.
The business community should b
urged to do business on the closes
possible margin. Advertising is
great help to low prices, since it en-
ables enterprising dealers to secur
q big volume Of trade. On tina
basis a small profit for each articl
sold makes good earnings on tn
total business. The people Wi
warmly appreciate the dealers tina
serve the public interest by dom
their best To keep the cost of Twin
down.

According to the weekly report of
the government employment Office at
Ashland the demand for woods labor

their dough.

lnflammable Rubbish.

One of the worst fire perils in q
modern town exists in the tendency
eff business men and householders to
allow inflammable rubbish, particul-
arly light shipping boxes and pack
ing material to accumulate in base
ments, storehouses and back yards.
The public is often warned Of this
danger and it should realize how
much difficulty and peril are created
for the firemen by such risks,
Such aecumulations enable fire
TO get big start in few moments.
and they make a thick cloud of smoke
that fills a building and imperils fire
fighters and impedes their work.
