Thrift.

VEHB UNITED STATES has seen lit
Il to set aside a week for thrift
This week is called Thrift Week"
The originator of Thrift week is Ben.
jamin Franklin. His hobbies were
thrift and modesty. He had a saying
which is very popular among the
people of the United States this day;
DO not pay too much for a whistle"
This will be a good slogan to use at
all times.
The individual can help the M,
tional government by cutting Gown
expenses, like the picture shows, at
least n night out of a week and
the other nights put the change that
you would use for shows into a box,
and 1t would be surprising how much
you would ave in a year. And
there are other common uxurie like
confectionery articles that could be
cut down If tried.
A nation can become thrifty bv
saving old clothing hat is not fit to
wear, but yet it would come in handy
for making clothing for the children.
Some people say. "Oh. well, nobody
wants these garments, SO Til burn
them" But people forget that idea
for there could be many happy fam.
lilies If they could make things over
and let the children wear them, and
It WOULD be better to know that you
was one of the people hat tried to
help some or even yourself, perhaps,
because you have saved 80 cents or
more that way.
The individual can become thrifty
by saving a certain mou each day.
There are many new ways to make
your money grow bigger by putting
1t into saving accounts in the bank
or into government bonds.
Everyone should become thrifty In
their younger days, SO when they be.
come old they have something to fall
back on. And It would make one feel
better to know that he or she did
not fall on the country for help. 1t
has been found that when cd people
reach q certain age they have no
money to take care of them. The
people have big advantages in these
days to haye money all the time. Why
not save some of the money that is
spent foolishly? Then when they
become old and arc no longer able
to work they will have something to
live on.
The 6uty to country regarding
thrift is to see that we at least save
a dime a week If not more. What Is
a thrifty nation? A thrifty nation
Is one that saves little amounts to
large things in time. So, save Is the
cry OF tho nation at all times.
