AUNT MINNIE'S STORY
FOR THE CHILDREN

Gladys was walking home from her
friend, Lenah's, birthday party one
beautiful fall evening. She walked
very slowly and although the sun had
already nodded it's last good bye
and a "will-see-youa gain-tomorrow'
to her, and she was more than mile
from her home, she did not hurry.
Lenah's aunt had said, Uenah's moth
er was dead and\t aunt was keep
ing house for them): 81 wish one of
the menfolk were here to take you
home in the car. Are you sure you
are not afraid if it gets little dark"
Oh, no, Gladys was not afraid, not a
bit. She knew every inch of that
country road, and every bush and tree
beside it. No, indeed she was not
afraid, had not even time to think of
it. Her every thought was filled with
awe of that splendid, luxurious party.
And all the pretty gifts Lenah had
received--it seemed as she must have
scores of uncles and aunts and cOus-
ms, so many, many beautiful things
they had sent to her. She was eleven
years old today and in another month
Gladys too, would be eleven-she Won
dered vaguely if she could possibly
have party, and with sigh, which
was almost sob instantly gave up
the hope. No, parties and pretty
things were not for her; and with a
bitterness, which ought never to enter
childhood, she wondered why. She
knew that she was just as good look
ing girl as Lenah, and far more
clever at her school workout, oh,
that has nothing to do with it
Lenah's father owns big farm and
has lots of money in the bank-and
Gladys with her parents and small
brother lives in little ugly two-room
shack hardly fit for such a purpose.
Why, oh why, should there be such
a difference? Lenah could have ev-
erything she wanted, in fact some
times got much more than she wanted,
while Gladys gets nothing at all, not
even decent clothes and yes, some
times hardly enough to eat.
For perhaps the hundredth time,
Gladys's thoughts went back to the
presents, big lifelike beautiful doll
in a pink silk dress. She could cry
and go to sleep and look exactly like
a real baby. Gladys's little heart,
not quite eleven years old filled with
dull pain. Oh, if she could only
Io1l oh
care if she had to wear those shabby
dresses, made over from things more
fortunate people were giving to her
mother, thus combining charity with
a feeling of relief in getting rid of
the 'old stuff" And poor mother did
her best, trying to make things as nice
as possible for the children, but how

4 LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT
(By S. w. Strauss

There are many failures in the
successful men financially had they
only known how to save money. Dur
ing the course of their careers they
have earned large sums but they have
let all this money slip through their
fingers from day to day. Possessed
of the natural gift of making money
just as their successful rivals, they
lacked the one quality necessary to
SucceSS-thT1ft
Thrift lays permanent stones in the
foundation of success.
The so-called plunger-the meteoric
financier-the speculator-the gam
bier may at times seem able to defy
of thrift. But such types of success
seldom are permanent. When gained
through spectacular methods rather
than through the working out of sound
business practices nearly always
proves transitory.
The majority of men who have built
up great fortunes, though they have
in many instances risen rapidly, owe
their success primarily to thrift
Thrift gave them the start they
needed, and it was the development
of this characteristic that impaired
the combination of courage and eau
tious judgment without which there
can be no substantial success in
money matters.
Thrift requires steadfastness and
will-power, but it does not require
genius or brilliant gifts of mind.
The ability to make money is, to
a considerable extent, matter of ma
tural aptitude, but the more important
accomplishment OF thrift can be ac-
quired by anyone. There is no excuse
for not saving money and no matter
how shrewd man may be or how
keenly developed his instincts for ac-
quiring wealth, he will never have
assurance of real success unless the
element of thrift is woven into all his
activities.
Lack of thrift has caused more
financial failures than any other
cause.

on the road. of course it is yours"
ut is not, insisted the conscience,
someone has lost it and you can't
keep it. 1t isn't honest"
Nonsense! silly talk"-this from
the head sharply-"But don't try to
sell it. It's risky, and besides it is
much too beautiful to let go from
you ever again. Take it home and
hide it in your little box where no
body will see it but yourself
Gladys was stirred out of her trance
by sound ahead of her on the road,
and quickly she wrapped her newly
found treasure in the handkerchief
and put it in her pocket. Someone
was coming toward her and soon an
old woman emerged from the dark
ness. Very slowly did she walk,
leaning heavily on her big staff, limp
ing painfully and all the while looking
intently at the ground at her feet
and in the tall grass by the roadside.
When she saw the girl she stopped
and said kindly, Good evening little
girl. Are you all alone out on the
road so late?"
Gladys returned her greeting and
explained about the birthday party
and that she was not afraid and was.
not very far from her home
81 don't suppose you saw anything
unusual on the road this evening dear
little grip" asked the woman and
Gladys managed to get her trembling
lips to form a sickly little NO. The
stone seemed to burn her hand in the
pocket. The old woman did not seem
to notice anything queer and contin-
ued sadly, 81 walked this way a short
while ago and lost very precious

and telling her to come again another
day and play, but. oh, that is not the
ling thing all by oneself. Gladys
loved dolls, oh, how she loved them,
and she never, never in all her life
had a real doll. Her eyes filled with
tears, and as she took her handker-
chief to wipe them away, she stopped
short and stared, startled and fas-
cinated at something lying there in
the dust by her feet-something
bright and shining-shining so it
nearly hurt her eyes to look at it.
She held her breath; what could it be,
that sparkling something? She bent
down to touch it, carefully. cautiously,
then picked it up and gasped as she
looked at it close by. 1t was a pearl,
a very large one and a perfect beau
ty Gladys had never seen anything
like it. She looked and looked, her
beauty-hungry eyes fairly glued to
the gem. Then suddenly it struck her
that the stone must be worth lot
of money, and through her head
whirled visions of dolls in pink silk
dresses, dainty dresses for herself
and many, many other things. Yes,
tomorrow she would take the stone
to the jeweler in the city-sure. he
would buy and pay big money for it,
why perhaps she would get ten dol
lars

little voice of her conscience.
"Of course it is yours" answered

pending final arrangements. This pa
per was founded about five years ago
and has had a somewhat stormy ca
reer, featured by frequent changes of
management.
Sues for Large Amount.
Nils Olaf Chrisander, Swedish mo-
tion-picture director, has brought
suit for $44,626 against Cecil B. De-
Mile, producer, whom he charges
with having violated 9 contract stip-
ulating that Mr.. Chrisander was to
direct the photographing of certain
plays at a salary of $1,000 a week.
Mr.. De Mile maintains that he has
fulfilled his part of the contract by
giving the Swedish director an OPP
portunity to direct two pictures
whereas Mr.. Chrisander claims that
the contract distinctly implied that a
whole series of pictures was meant.
Danish Shipping.
Port statistics from New York show
that during the year of 1928 there
were so more Danish ships arriving
in New York than during the pre-
vious year. Altogether $50 Danish
steamers and motor ships arrived in
that port, and among these, Sc were
passenger vessels, the remainder be-
ing freight boats. Indications are
that the traffic during 1929 will in
crease considerably as the trade be-
tween the United States and Denmark
is expanding from month to month.

can writer, died last week in Chicago

paigns. Mr.. Benson was a native of
Bjerkreim, Stravanger Amt, Norway
had been in the United States since
he was young man. He was an
ardent prohibition champion and also
took active part in religious work.
