CARE WITH
SAVINGS
By r. G. FORBES

BY b. u. EWNDES
Last night the National Thrift
Week people induced me to talk
over the radio. 1t was National
Safe Investment Day. Probably
never was there greater need
than there is today Tor warning
people against blindly investing"
their savings. Certain it is that of
late far more people than ever
4 before in the history Of the nation
Ahave been buying stocks without
4 taking proper pain to get trust
!. worthy advice or to seek adequate
I Information.
Some of the elementary ideas
/ scattered over Sthe air. to fall,
/ rather imagine, on stony
ground, in view of the present
mania for speculation, follow:
Much discussion has ragged since
q recent interview with Henry
Ford in which he was quoted as
declaring that nobody need bother
about saving money until after
I reaching the age of 40.
Maybe AIisquoted
Probably Mr.. Ford was mis-
quoted, because it is inconceivable
that any sensible man could make
such a statement. II no saving
had been done by anyone before
the age Of 40, America would to-
day be a less desirable land to
live in. No nation can obtain the
capital necessary to develop Its
resources until its people-many
OF its people-save money and IN
vest it wisely.
L cannot ina gine Mr.. Ford or any
other large employer willingly en-
ploying as workers only men who
had no bank account whatsoever
at 40. How in the name of COM
nonsense could 9Ss out of every
1000 people in his country save
enough for their old age If they
did not start saving until they
had reached the fortieth mile
stone? The lamentable truth is
that 1t is becoming harder and
harder every year for men and
women of 40 to find employers
willing to engage them at any
wage.
Earliest Best
The best investment Of all, as
Mr.. Ford pointed out, IL early in.
vestment in self-improvement.
Every youth and young man who
can possibly do so should invest
generously in school and college
educationI in vocational education,
in the right kind of books and
periodicals, in intelligent travel,
In making helpful contacts and
associations.
Wise investment in self during
the first half of ones life usually
makes it possible later to acquire
other investments. investments
which drive away the specters
which haunt the old age OF mil
lionsA-specters of unemployment,
of homelessness, of debts, Of pri-
vations.

"Those saved steps mean a lot

to bat 800 or better. I've pressed
that mark twice. Last year ! fell

Ossie admits. I've generally man.
aged to do my share of the pinch

important to hammer across runs
that win ball games than to collect
higher averages that don't mean
anything"
Consider Joe Judge, for instance.
Joe usually tops 800 by only few
points. but show me, if you can. a
