Motorists Eyesight.

Automobile accidents have been
increasing at the rate Of 1000 a
year and in some quarters there
has been active agitation to compel
by law, the examination Of the Wis
ion Of every driver of an auto
mobile.
The results that might be obtained
from such legislation are doubtful.
Those who are sponsoring laws in
each state, of this character, admit
that in five states where the eye
sight Of applicants for drivers Ii
censes are tested, the methods used
in enforcing and interpreting the
laws make them ineffective.
If this is the result Of such legis-
lation in five states, what assur-
ance is there that it would not be
the same in every other state?
Drivers of automobiles are al
ready surrounded with such null
tiplcity Of laws that they are never
quite sure, when they leave home,
how many statutes win be broken
before they return.
Every law tacks on few fees,
all Of which increases the expense
of operating an automobile, and one
requiring a vision test for drivers
would be no exception in this re-
spect.
Every law-abiding automobile
driver welcomes laws that will curb
speeding, prevent operation Of ma
chimes by intoxicated people and
keep down to the minimum practices
that endanger the lives Of others,
but laws of doubtful value are
harmful because they increase the
disrespect for all law Elk.

A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
By s. W. sTRAUS
President Of American Society for Thrift

No matter how shrewd a man may
be or how keenly developed his
instincts for acquiring wealth, he
will never be successful unless an
element Of thrift is woven into all his
activities.
The so-called plunger-the mete-
oric financier-may at times seem
able to defy prudent practices and
the principles of thrift However,
such success is seldom permanent.
Wealth gained by sort of ledger
demain rather than through the
working out of sound business
practices nearly always prove transit
DRY.
Lack Of thrift has caused more
financial failures than anything
else. How many men there are
today who might have become
wealthy had they only known how to
save money! During the course of
their careers they have earned large
sums. but these have slipped through
their fingers from day to day. They
had the natural gift of making
money, just as their successful rivals,
but they lacked the quality of per-
manent success-which is thrift.
The majority Of men who have
built up great fortunes, though they
have in many instances risen rapidly,
owe their success primarily to thrift.
It was this that gave them the start
they needed and it was the develop
ment Of this characteristic that i'm
parted the combination of courage
and cautious judgment without which
there can be no substantial success
in money matters.
Although the ability to make money
is, to a considerable extent, matter
of natural aptitude, the still more
important accomplishment of thrift
can be acquired by anyone. There
is no excuse for not saving money.
Thriftlessness is an indication of
weakness. 1t is indecision of
character.
Thrift requires steadfastness and
the martialing of the last ounce of
moral strength that we possess. But
it does not require any special genius
or brilliant gift of mind.

Many a budding genius loses out

They should be glad they are not

Laughter is said to be the best

Women use paint to hide their
complexions-and some of them
use smiles to hide what they are
thinking about.
The main reason why people do
not get what they want in this life
is because they want what they can't
have.
The fellows who can best stand
up under the blows Of fate are the
ones who were graduated from the
school of hard knocks.
Sometimes a man pokes fun at the

wonders why the sawbones is so

Christmas Savings.

Nothing has ever appealed to the
Americans sense of thrift quite like
a Christmas savings club. Ten years
ago the combined savings of all the
clubs in the United States were esti-
mated at S28,000,000; this year they
amount to 100000, almost ten
times as much.
The idea has been criticized be-
cause it persuades people to save
to spend. But even so, investigation
has shown that only forty-five per
cent Of the money saved in this
manner is spent for Christmas gifts
and other Injuries and twenty-eight
percent is redeposited in savings or
checking accounts. The balance goes
for essentials.
If none of the money saved in
Christmas savings clubs We're ac-
tually saved, they would promote the
spirit of thrift and teach those who
participate what can be accomp-
Gshed by persistent saving.
The Christmas savings clubs will
do more than all Of the preaching on
frugality and thriftiness conceivable.
They give a realistic demonstration
of what can be done by putting by
a fixed sum each week.
Once convinced of what regular
saving viii do, he average person is
