wonders and to wonder more after

Knowing that the dollar in cir
culation has many more times the
value of my dollar buried at home,
I decided to purchase the much
desired radio. ! have not only add

money into circulation which will
manufacture another set, thereby
giving work to some one who may
need it.
IF we can only understand that
for every dollar We spend 1t must

afford more than we think we can

Urges Planting Dollars.
THE planting season is at hand
not only for the seed that will bring
forth a bountiful harvest. but also
for the dollars that will increase
finances. increase employment and
reduce poverty. Never was the IN
vestment field more fertile than 1t
is right now. The foolish man stores
his seed and allows it to mold and
decay, but the wise man plants MS
seed and watches it increase
hundred-fold. Labor cannot live
without money and money cannot
grow without labor Give them TO
each other and the dollars Will null
tiplv. the honest man will have
work, and the hungry child VIII
have food. Hoarded money only
serves as an incentive to thieves ana

The quickest way to lift the

WAY to End Distress.

IF all the world practiced Jesus
advice to Nicodemus, Love thy
ncighbor as thyself, then there
would be no distress and hunger
anywhere in the world.
1T is the duty of all loyal citizens
of the United States to stop hoard
ing. as this would prove disastrous
to all in the end. Let the boarded
dollar work and it will enormously
relieve depression, starvation and
unemployment. Capable. honestly
unemployed would enjoy the God
given right to work and not depend
on charity.

Idle Dollars Buy Car.
THE patriotic duty of every
American citizen is to expend his
surplus cash for things which will
give added pleasure. comfort. health
and happiness to his family. there

prompt revival of business and aid

With this in mind, I recently
purchased an automobile with my
idle dollars. This act will not only

be n fit hundreds of different
branches of industry.
Il might have put off buying a
new car but such thoughts and
actions have retarded progress and
prosperity long enough"

cations of the best methods known
to bring back better business condi-
tions, and knowing that true values
are now selling for far below normal
prices and that this condition will
not last much longer: 1 believe to-
day is one of the few chances of a

hoardings and daily savings. I
believe this is the greatest opportu-
nifty for so years to get profitable
returns for your money invested"
