AuTTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By 8. W STRAuS
President Of American Society for Thrift

Thrift Of effort is personal ef-
ficiency, which depends largely on
enc thing ut time.
Carelessness in the performance of
a duty no matter how trivial it may
seem constitutes one of the worst
drawbacks 10 personal success.
An old adage tells US with deep
truth that anything worth doing is
worth doing well There is no place
in our progressive American life to-
day for the slipshod, careless person.
Those who merely shuttle along,
lodging essential details. are out of
place ina our current life
Opportunities to broaden and adj
vance come only to those who prove
their ability, step by step. and are
willing TO take infinite pains with
each thing they do. Nature does not
cndow as with the genius Of doing
big things quickly and we'll Pro
gress must be acquired by diligent
application and concentration, first
upon the seemingly unimportant
tasks and then on those of constantly
increasing consequence.
Learn how to DO we'll one thing at
a time This invoices not only the feat
Of accomplishing the definite under
taking, but It is a lesson in valuable
accuracy
The mistake often is made Of try
ing to do too much or of endeavorinF
to advance too rapidly. As a result
no forward steps are taken, time and
energy are used up trying to correct
mistakes made under pressure of
undue haste, AID general son.

County School Notes

When you have thing to say
Say it, don't take half day.
When your tales got little in it;
Crowd the whole thing in a
minute,
Life is short, affecting vapor
Don't fill up the whole blank paper
With tale which at a pinch
Could be crowded in an inch.
Boil her down until she SINNERS,
Polish her until she glimmers.
When you have thing to say
Say it, don't take half day.
