My slogan is: Save for the good
and necessary things of life.
Thrift is practiced and used to a
greater extent and to a better pur-
pose today than in any other day and
age.
Children are putting their money in
banks for the purpose of furthering
their education or for some worthy
project. They are given their month
ly allowance and should spend it in
the most economical and useful way
they can.
| think a child should save his
money instead of spending it for un-
necessary things which ne does not
need. / think it is very good idea
to save your money for your educa-
ton. 1t is the best thing any child
can do. You may be robbed of your
riches or anything you own, but your
education can never be taken from
you. / think this is very good and
true statement. Some people think
it is a waste of money to further
their education. But as every man
or woman knows who has had good
education, it is the best and most pre-
cious thing they can possess.
Sometimes boy or girl thinks he
or she need not save for their educa-
ton as their father has plenty of
money. l have often heard people
say, There is many a slip between a
cup and a lip" So something may
slip between a child and his educa-
ton. l have often heard a man or
woman say: II am very proud of my
education. And l am still prouder of
it because l can practically say I
have given it to myself. Every bit
of moiey l needed at college or at
high school l took from my savings
account, which l have had since as
far back as can remember" Some
people think if you have an education
you should lead life of luxury. Just
because you have an education there
is no reason why you should lead a
life of luxury. You get education not
because you want to be rich, but be-
cause you think you need and want
one. Most every educated man who
knows how to. use his education
spends his money wisely and there
fore has money in the bank. There
are not many of these people there
fore we should prize them highly.
If everyone would take heed of
these few words which Mr.. Ford has
to say there would be more of these
men.

DIFFERENT KIND OF RADIO
INVENTOR SHOWS AND DEM
ONSTRATES SINIPLIFIED SET
Opens Fields of Radio Develop
ment Hitherto Regarded as
Utterly Impracticable

Forty-two men, including cap
tains of the radio and allied indus
tries, capitalists, engineers and
patent attorneys, gathered last
Thursday in the apartment of Har-
ris Hammond in New York to view
and hear a newly developed radio
receiving set for which astounding
claims had been made. The inven-
tor and his hackers confidently told
the assemblage that the principles
upon which the set operated revo-
lutionize theories and practices
that now guide the field of radio.
Moreover, patent attorneys as
serted that these principles avoid
all existing basic patents in the
radio art and virtually create an
entirely new field of radio develop
ment because of their fundament-
ally new and radical character.
The demonstration of the set was
under the direction of

impracticable. The most radical
departure in the Riggs systems is
its elimination of the necessity o.
negative grid bias, heretofore re-
garded absolutely essential in all
amplifier circuits, patent right on
which are tightly held and guard

system uses positive bias, ac-
complishing what has been con-
sidered technically impossible.
That positive voltages were shown
on a voltmeter when applied to
each tube in the system, can be
attested by the writer and by the
engineers who witnessed the dem
onstration. Amazement was ex-
pressed when this departure from
what has been considered virtual
dogma of radio resign was reveal

hours, DR.. Riggs, who is only 90
years old, held the fixed attention

faithful in the extreme. The tonal
quality and the clarity equalled, if
it did not excel, the best the audi

held true of orchestral, piano, vio-

The saliva is a very necessary

the sidewalk, or on the ground about

with germs which, after drying, are

which the dreaded "T B." finds access

kinds of skins, and in describing them

them more clearly If I give you a
concrete comparison. SO | am going tC
compare the thin, fragile skin to the
texture of the Japanese silk, and the

weave of piece of WOODEN material.
Some skins are of such a delicate
texture that it is impossible for the
naked eye to see the pores, just as
it is impossible to see the weave Of
fine piece OF silk; whereas in the
thicker skin the pores are discernible
to the eye as in the weave of wooden
material.
Many women seem to have the inn
preston that it is nicer to possess a
thin skin and are sensitive about hav-
ing their skins called thick. But in
reality they are fortunate. Those who
have thin or dry skin have a far
greater beauty problem on their hands
than the thick-skinned women, for
thick skins are far more beauty
proof" and will bear up under stress
and strain to much greater degree
than will thin or fragile skins.
If you are in doubt as to the tex
ture of your skin, you can usually
decide the question by examining your
hair. If the hair is fine and silky,
the skin is of a thin tendency, whereas
If the hair is inclined to coarseneSs,
the skin will in all probability be
