A BUDGET

o you keep a budgetY It is a splendid plan. Governments
everywhere are adopting the budget system. So are big bust
nesses and every little business that handles other peoples
money. If it works so well with large concerns why should not
individuals and families use it to handle their expenses.
There is only one kind of person who doesn't like the
budget. That is the waster-the person who doesn't dare to
face the truth. But if you want to plan ahead, to face facts,
to see where you have been spending wastefully or ~needlessly
adopt a budget. Who that is wise doesn't want to do that!
a THE following is a good general division of columns.
1-What you've received.
#2-What you've spent for living expenses food, etc..
3-What you've spent for operating expenses CLOTHES,
fare, doctor bills, etc.,.
EWhat you've spent for recreation and self.improve-
1T lectures, charity, etc..
@What you've set aside for savings, insurance, educa-
ton and other investments.
If you want greater detail these columns can then be sub
divided. At the end Of the month add up the columns and let
the totals be the basis Of what you promise yourself you will
spend on these items the next month, making an adjustment
in your budget at the end of each month until you can live
wisely within your means. This eliminates your spending too
much money on any one thing at the expense of other things.
sits too much work," some one says. Don't call it work.
You would enjoy racking your brain over a puzzle. Get the
same amount of pleasure out of chasing your memory for a lost
dollar to make your expense account balance. There is SO much
satisfaction in it when you do get it. Give a budget a trial and
prove it for yourself.

d. GIVES GIRL MILLIONS
By JACK JUNGMEYER
NEA Staff Correspondent

Los Angeles, Jan. 26.-A good
h1any people have a million dollars,
but not many are accounted worth
y million to an employer.
June Mathis Is.
When Goldwyn Pictures made her
editorial director recently. that's
what they insured her life for, as a
kort of replacement valuation.
Although celebrated as a scenar-
1st. Miss Mathis regards herself as a
working woman. She isn't tempera-
mental. Or. II she is. she has her
temperament under her own control
perfectly.
She Doesn't Threaten
Even the directors" she says,
sb@eame my friends when I didn't
rave because sometimes they thought
best to alter by pet scenes. I fight
Tor what I consider important, but
Z don't huff and threaten to blow
the house down."
Miss Mathis supervises the selec-
ZION and progress Of pictures. She
sits with directors on the set and in
projection room. She titles and she
EDITS and she helps to cut.
It's a Job many high-salaried men
have failed at.
"When I gave up the stage ten
pears ago to enter this field" she
xplains, 81 saw that adaptation of
famous plays and books was a weak
spot in the industry. Nobody want
ed to do such work-not romantic
enough"
Not Bad Interest
So 1t was a branch of the business
IN which Miss Mathis specialized.
The result IL that she draws now
more than $4,000 a year-not a bad
rate Of interest on $1,000, 000-for
duties that others considered be-
meath them.
She has wide cheeks, full gray
eyes and what she frankly calls
STAT, to nourish the nerves." Her
poise is perfect. She gives the i'm.
preston Of tremendous reserves OF
energy. ~.
