Guiding Your Child
THRIFT

be taught to save. But In our zeal
to teach thrift We are apt to forget
both the conditions under which 1t is
possible for the child to learn It and
the fact that it is not in itself = vir-
tue.
When We try to inculcate thrift in
our children We must remember that
our real object is to teach them to
spend money in ways that will give
them the greatest satisfaction in the

forced saving common In many
homes fall short of their purpose be-
cause they do not take into account

motions and hope that these will In
some mysterious way affect his con-
duct.
Johns mother tells proudly that
John. aged six. has already put away
$50 in the savings bank, sum which
represents the Christmas and birth

Reddy Fox knew where Rusty

two great parties, the Republicans
and the Democrats, have held sessions
and selected their standard bearers
for the November election. They
have written the party platform and
the outstanding planks in each one
is said to be on the liquor question
as defined in the Eighteenth Amend
ment, but no matter what the party
leaders may say, and political heads
may write, this great nation of ours
has come to the point where the Con-
stitution is to be properly inter
preted.
At last there is to be a decision,
not on the issue of religious toler-
ance, neither whether this country
should be wet or dry, BUT the most
vital question in the world that has
ever yet been properly settled, which
is whether this great nation is a
strong and potential central govern
ment with each state subordinate to
the sovereignty of the Union. or
whether the states are sovereign
unto themselves. 1t is a clearly de-
fined issue upon STATE RIGHTS
and the Republican party, according
to its principles, could not do 9th
erwise than stand for the full en-
fOrcement of the law according to
the Constitution and it's amendments,
while the Democrats, in making the
campaign upon a wet issue. are

state to deal with the conditions

laws to govern the same without
interference from the Union,

same issues are before the voters of

the votes cast by a majority of the
American voters, who will by casting
such ballots declare themselves in
favor of states rights
The Republican party must again
save the Union in order to save
themselves, and it is up to the lead

manner that it will inspire the con-
