throughout our nation of late,
many people have been under the
false impression that prosperity
is something which has come to
us since the close of the World
War. Our prosperity today is, in
fact, merely the evidence Of
steady increase in our earning,
production and saving power over
a long period-several I decades.
The results which we witness to-
day in the volume of savings are
cumulative. The war. with its
thrift stamps. liberty bonds, etc..
did, no doubt, stimulate many
thousands Of people to save and
they have since continued to
practice thrift in one form or
another. The American Society
for Thrift and similar organiza.
tons have done much to impress
upon all classes the be- fits OF
thriftg The influence of this work
has been particularly potent
among our young people. This Is
shown by the growth OF our
school savings banks.

had wanted a little house then,

At half past eleven Angela

in the spick.and-span roadster that
her father had given her for
Christmas time,
Everything about Angela was
spick and span, always, from the
crown of her head to. the tips Of
her smooth white fingers. She
daintily brushed back wisp Of
bright hair that blew against her
cheek as they started off.
Honey Lou looked at the strand
of shining hair with wondering
puzzled eyes. Was it genuine
gold or did Angela have 1t

at The Powder Box, by Marie?
OF course, Angela said she never
had her hair touched up" But
then, Honey Lou had seen the
box of henna with her own eyes.
She wondered about It.

Sam and Charlie, as they were known
