Right Here In
INDIANA
BY Gaylord Nelson

TT IGUREs given out by the
n State banking department
show that the assets of In.
diana building and loan associations
have increased nearly $40,000,O00 in
the past year.
This is an impressive monument
to thrift.
For these ASSOCIATIONS are not de-
signed for the investments of CAPT
talists. Their investors are frugal
folks with small savings. There are
lot of such people. More than
10, 900 of these sevings institutions
operate in the United States.
Indiana ranks seventh in the
Union in building and loan assets,
with approximately 5000 100000. 1t
has 400 associations, of which mum
Der fifty-six are in this city.
There is nothing spectacular about
erecting an estate by slow accretion
of regular Insignificant savings. Peo-
pie would rather run a nickel up
to a million dollars in a blazing raid
on wall Street.
Or trust the death Of a mythical
rich uncle to provide the umbrella
for the rainy day. The umbrella
frequently turns out to be the sign
Of three gilt balls.
Which doesn't shed rain.
Thrift is a squatty, unhandsome
word. 1t has few friends among the
butterflies. But q comforting word
when the twinges of age and rheu-
matism come.
The building and loan plan pro
notes thrift. BY following it one
gets rich slowly-and painfully Its
disciples neither break the bank at
Monte Carlo nor break down the door
of the poorhOuse.

The War Department does not
give credit to any one American di-
vision for stopping the drive. In
June and July, 1918, the American
divisions helped to shatter the
enemy advance toward Paris and to
turn the retreat into a triumphant
offensive. The 2nd Division, with
elements Of the 3rd and 28th Divi-
sions. blocked the German advance
toward Paris at Chateau-Thierry and
rendered great assistance in stop
ping perhaps the most dangerous of
the German drives. The End Divi-
sion not only halted the enemy on
its front but also recaptured from
him the strong tactical positions Of
