expected irrespective of the season of

Notwithstanding the present ease
of money and the fact 1t should con-
tinue to be available for most pur.
poses, ii may be more difficult this
coming Winter to borrow for building
purposes. There seems to be a gen
eral impression among bankers that
new building has been carried too far,
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1926-10-02

that prices of building materials and
labor costs are too high. Any failures
or foreclosures along real estate lines
will cause bankers to shut down on
real estate loans. This and the in
stallment situation are the flies IN the
money situation today.

/ The present is a very good time to
reduce loans. This is always a good
step to take when in a period or
prosperity, as loans can be reduced
with much more ease during such a
period than they can when money
Is tight As in other things, there is
a time when it is easy to reduce
Indebtedness and time when it is
hard to reduce Indebtedness. The
present is the time TO get out OF dept
We are now passing through
period when it is easy to borrow
money and the banks are anxious to
loan. The temptation, therefore. is
to expand and borrow more money.
But easy money conditions cannot
always last. and when interest rates
stiffen is when it is hardest TO pay
up the old loans Now, therefore. IS
the time to stop borrowing money
and get all loans paid up. Keep IN
mind that the time to reduce indebted
ness is when it Is easy to borrow, and
the time 10 increase Indebtedness Is
when it is hard TO borrow.
Avoid Endorsing Notes.
Just how we can reduce indebted
ness? The first thing TO do is 10 get
off all personal indorsenenls. II /
could get all of my young friends to
promise me that they would never IN
dorse a note this would be one Of the
greatest things that | could possibly
do for these young people. one Will
never get anywhere by indorsing notes
and it is certainly taking q needless
chance. We know that money will
not always come easy ana note must
be paid up when due. Therefore, one
good way of keeping out OF trouble Is
To pay up all our personal ho@c5 and
determine never to indorSo another.
1t is always -~~*y 20 f8ne ~@~ excuse

Therefore. unless you want to take
the chance of being a heavy loser in

GYMNASIUM STUNTS
BY Y, N, c, 4, GROUPS
INTEREST BIG CROWD

A series of spectacular gymnasium
stunts and unique games, presented
Friday night at the Augusta Y. NJ. c.
A. as the program of the New Years
open house observance. surprised a
crowd Of over 400 people who came to
witness the work of their children or
their friends children, without real
izing the ability of the youngsters.
Four classes, the grammar school
girls and the midgets, Junior and sem
Tor, boys. staged a program of more
than an hours duration that drew
round after round of applause. These
many feats, followed by an impromptu
period in the swimming pool at which
the older folks saw another angle of
the Y. NJ. c. A. work, made up a pro-
gram that was of intense interest to
the adults.
The grammar school girls first put
on a series Of letter marching, wand
drill and boot ball, in which the small
girls--some OF them not over seven
or eight years Of age--showed re-
markable talent for the work and dem
onstrated clearly the fine way in which
Physical Director Hoyt Mahan drills
his classes. They formed the letters

pretty manner. and their other work
was fully as interesting.
The junior boys presented fine Sc
ries of stunts on the mat. their tum-
bling and mat work being of excep-
tionsl calibre. They were followed by
the midgets, who demonstrated several
sroup and mass games that wete both
interesting and funny. The high
school boys completed the program

is everyone's frieRd. The Wiser

act which consists of singing, dane
ing, acrobatic stunts, comedy, the
singing duck and their whirl in the
air which is the best of its kind
ever seen in this city. Fox & Carr

a distinct hit and are called on for
encores at each performance. The
