Financially Handicapped.
You learn from those you meet that
the farmer is really after an equality
of opportunity rather than special
privilege. In ways financial, in times
past. he was distinctly handicapped
ms TO borrowing money. rather by
circumstances than from the fault OF
faraway and remote sections or In dis
tricts on the railroad. he suffered
from lack of adequate and economi-
cal transportation whereby to market
his products. Want OF educational
facilities and opportunities was the
worst of all often one-room school
houses. with scant equipment. educa-
tionai or sanitary. poorly paid teach
ers. children walking miles to school
through snow and ice and mud. The
high school usually long way off
in some large town. Country roads
that were clouds of dust in summer
and impa ssa BILE in winter. Such too
often was the story, and those who
stuck to the farm. under such cir
cumstanccs. did so because they could
not get away. or because they loved
| nature rather than the ease. comfort
and social life of the city.
Highways Arc Better.
So now that there are many good
roads. and many more buildings. bet
ter transportation, more equitable di-
vision OF the States money for edu-
| cation. and constantly easier and
| more accessible borrowing facilities.
naturally the farmer Is doing all he

TELLS OF SUCCESS WHICH MAY
BE DERIVED FROM USING THRIFT
s. W. Straus, President American Society for Thrift, AS
serts Greatest Business Men of Today VIII At
tribute Rise to Sound Judgment
By =. W. Strnus,

President American Society for Thrift
Sir Thomas Upton was once asked
to define his conception of the secrets
OF success and he replied as follows:
Saving is the first great principle OF
Ill successes. 1t creates independence
ard gives a young man stamina; II
hlls him with vigor; IL stimulates him
with the roper energy; in fact, ii
brings to him the better part OF any
snccess--happincss and contentmcnt.
j 1t were possible to inject the quail
ity OF saving into every boy we would
have great many more real men"
If one were 10 place questionable
in the hands of all the men in the
world today who are achieving great
success, asking them TO outline the
secrets OF their achievements. IL is
more than likely that they would all
answer with definition describing
the principles OF thrift. 1t Is recog-
nized as one OF the fundamentals ne
cessary in rounding out a strong
character.
This does not mean that great ac-
complishment depends on saving
money. but il does mean that success
must depend among other things on
thrift of time. efficiency and elimina-
ton of waste. Unless one watches
closely and exercises n great amount
of will power. each day will bring Il
harvest OF wasted time and lost op-
portunitics.
The man who gets ahead and ac-
complishes worthy things in the
world does so because he knows how
to make the minutes count. lie knows
that every hour Is precious and that
IL he is to keep to the front in the
race for life he must not waste any
