Back Home and Broke y
TOM REDDING

A few short months ago when you were
working in Casper and making good
money, we beseeched you to put aside a
small part of your salary each month and
invest it in building and loan stock with us.
This would have meant that today you
would be walking on Easy Street. But,
Tom, you will remember that you failed to
heed this suggestion. You preferred to 90
your own way and spend your money as
you made it.
We are sorry, Tom, that you did not take
our advice for then you would not be back
home and broke, but it's up to you now that
you are back home, whether you will stav
broke. Men are still taking advantage of
the opportunities we offer.

 Iy-Expansion of Enterprise and Stiffening of Process Is Shown by Federal Board

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Evi- dence of rising tide of prosperity was portrayed today by two differ ent government branches, whose surveys, though made for different purposes, registered practically identical conclusions.
 The federal reserve board, mak- ing public its monthly report on if nance and commerce, told of in creases taking place in the produc- ton volume of commodities gen erally, expansion of enterprises and stiffening prices of basic products, while the department of labor, on the basis of responses to it's em- ployment agents in 37 states to of ficial queries, reported decreased unemployment, heightening de- mard for labor in nearly all indus trial centers and an impending labor shortage in many areas.
 The reserve boards account of heavier bank lending, increasing operations, maximum railroad load ings of freight, particularly forestry products, and expanding produc- ton in basic industries like steel and cotton weaving, checked com- pletely with the labor departments findings.
 Employment Increases.
 Industrial employment continued to increase during February and short ages of both skilled and unskilled labor were reported by the textile and steel mills and in the anthracite mines. The board added, however, that there was still some unemploy- ment west of the Mississippi river but, generally speaking, important wage increases were reported. Of flee workers, the board declared, have not been in such great demand. yet in eastern industrial centers this class of workers is being absorbed more rapidly than conditions few months ago would have indicated.
 Reports received by the reserve banks gave strong indications. it was said. of an active distribution of goods for this season of the year. Sales of department stores in more than one hundred cities were F per cent greater than in February q year ago while at the same time, inven- tories fail to show that there ha
