THE VALUE OF MONEY

Paul told Timothy ''ths love o.
money Is the root of all evil" That,
true. But a decent respect for money
is the ROOT of a lot of happiness and
comfort.
The value of money Is measured by
the uses to which It il put. The mi
ser loves money in itself: tho spend.
thrift loves to throw It away; but the
thrifty man loves neither.
Many of Us don't know the value
OF money because we were never
taught And the older we grow the
harder It is to learn. If you have
finally learned pass tho knowledge on
TO your children. .
A child who is not taught the value
OF money will o come suddenly into
the knowledge after he Erows up.
Start teaching thrift to your hi.
dren now-and practice what you
teach.

SYNDICATE HEADED BY J. p.
MORGAN TO HANDLE ISSUE
MARKETED RECENTLY
AMOUNT NOT EXCESSIVE
PUBLIC OFFERING OF s25, 900
AUSTRIAN GOVERNMENT BONDS
PART OF INTERNATIONAL LOAN

New York.-Public offering of $685.
100000 Austrian government bonds, a
part Of an international loan Of S126,-
100000 to the Austrian republic, was
made in the United States by a syn
dictate of bankers headed by j. p.
Morgan and Co.
The issue, which consists of twenty
year Z per cent sinking fund gold
bonds, will be offered at 80 to yield
investors 8 per cent. The bonds are
guaranteed as to principal, interest
and redemption payments by the gov
ernments of Great Britain, France,
Czecho-Slovakia, Italy, Belgium,
Sweden, Denmark and Holland, and
are secured by a first charge on the
gross receipts Of the Austrian Gus
toms and tobacco monopoly.
"The Importance of the Austrian
loan which was issued recently" j. p.
Morgan, head of the banking firm Of
j. p. Morgan and Co., said in %announc-
ing the offering, lies in the fact that
the attitude of American investors to
this loan will show they are interested

which are prepared to help themselves
toward the reestablishment of their
credit.
Last year at the bankers con-
ference, held at Paris, I stated that II
was my opinion that if the security to
be given was clearly good and the in
vestors of other leading nations would
cooperate to the extent that they felt
themselves able to do, I believed that
the American market would participate
in an important extent in the rehabili-
tation In the European financial situa-
ton. At that time these conditions
could not be satisfied. Now, however,
for the first time, a loan is offered
which fulfills both conditions.
1.-THE amount, while large, is not
excessive, and every present indica-
ton justifles my confidence that we
shall find the American investing
public in accord with us in our be-
lief that the new Austrian bonds are
a good Investment and that the ex-
tension of this credit is an impor-
tant step on the road to peace and
normal conditions"
