It's far better to be somebody in a
small town than nobody in big town.

don't want to be touched.
Too many hold-up and not enough
hold-on men, is one of the troubles of
the present.
Anyway, campaign without Bryan

Many man who has boasted that
he never ''ate his words" goes out and
eats the dust of the car in front every
Sunday.
If bobbed hair has served no other
purpose, it has relieved a long suffer-
ing public from many stale prohibition
jokes.
One nice thing about flying around
the world is that one doesn't have to
pay any attention to passports or de-
| tours.
What's become of the old fashioned
man who likes to tell about the political
concentration that cast 46 ballots be-
fore nominating candidate?
The college catalogues seldom say
anything about the football team,
which is very important factor when
boy gets ready to make choice.
The fellow who attends strictly to
his own business never has to worry
about new laws.
In estimating men, don't forget that
it's the green driver who toots his horn
on the slightest pretext.
The jingle of silver is a pleasant

Thrift in Public Education.

The recent session of the Nation.
al Education Association at Wash.
ington, D. c., emphasized the i'm.
portance of thrift, teaching economy
in school administration and intro.
duction of universal savings
systems.
Arthur H. Chamberlain, chair
man of the National Committee on
Thrift Education. advocates courses
of study on these lines in the school
systems of Our County.
General introduction of school
savings deposit systems, with mil
lions of small depositors drawing
interest, are to be introduced in the
common schools and colleges.
Progressive banking houses are
taking up this matter on practical
lines to counteract the tendency OF
children learning to spend money
before they have acquired earning
ability.
The morality and stability Of
character. to say nothing about
individual honesty and saving
habits, of the child can be conserved
BY such systems for the welfare and
prosperity of the individual, the
family and Our County.
