" THE INCENTIVE TO SAVING.
Some people save money easily and have a love of tfirift for
its own sake. But the majority of folks seem to need some den
nlte thing to save for. When the banks began to promote Christ
mas Clubs, Vacation Clubs, Etc., they found that a multitude of
pconle who would not save money simply from the general pur
pose of thrift, would do so if you offered them some definite and
attractive object to work for. The same principle applies to
owning a home. It constitutes a wonderful incentive. The idea
of a pretty and convenient dwelling that shall make you inde
jjendont, and which you can develop and improve to suit yourself,
has fascinated the thought of multitudes of people. Innumerable
folks, who never previously could save a dollar, have become able
to do so when you planted in their head3 this possibility of owning
a home. It has been the motive that gave them their start in life
and has opened new possibilities of prosperity. Obligations of
this kind have a steadying effect on people. It is something like
marriage. Where previously a man had squandered all his earn
ings on foolish pleasures, when he marries a wife, he has an in
centive to use his money carefully and his ideals and ambitions
are uplifted. The effort to own a home similarly concentrates a
man's purpose on industry and thrift. The man who buys a home
oil a mortgage finds that debt is not so much a burden as an in
ducement. Men who have bought out business enterprises and
given notes for them, often say that the existence of that obliga
tion had a wonderful effect to stimulate their energy and initia
tive. It is just the same in the effort to own a home. It brings
out the best there is in a man.
" The close of school and college has brought many young peo
ple for the first time up against the problem of making good in a
business or mechanical position. Their first efforts are mighty
novel and interesting and also somewhat anxious. A good rule
through this period of uncertainty and probation, is to remember
carefully all instructions handed out to them. This is not so easy
H$ it sounds. They will be told, many new things during their
first month. It may be difficult to keep all those things in mind.
A good plan, if a new employe is receiving new instructions,
would be to note down each day when you get home, just what
ew information and suggestions were given you during the day.
I is irritating to an employer or foreman to have to keep telling
people things over and over again., But a new worker who takes
special pains to note down and remember all instructions, makes
afavorable appearance, and the chances of such for promotion are
very good.
o
Many people who at this time are beginning work for the
first time realize that there are wide gaps in their education.
When the stenographer has letters handed back with misspelled
words, when the store clerk makes errors in his arithmetic that
scei careless or ignorant, they lament some idle days spent in
school. But young people who are determined to rise never worry
much about such defects. A few hours a week of reading and
study at home, will put them in advance of many who have had
better opportunities, but who have frittered them away. The
early years of people's business careers should be a time when
they make a special effort to remove these defects of education.
If they do not do so then, they probably never will.
Divorces to the number of 6,900 before a single judge in
Chicago may not be alarming to very many people, but the strain
attendant on the strenuous work caused the judge to collapse.
However,' the fact is calculated to produce a nervous slunk to
every right thinking nature. Nearly seven thousand homes broken
up, and thousands of children brought under the blighting in
fluence of domestic tragedy, are some of the direct results of these
lamentable occurrences for a single year.
Solemn warning was issued yesterday by Commander Lane
Goodell at the state meeting of the American Legion now in ses
sion at The Dalles against allowing religious differences to enter
into the affairs of the Legion. This is a sensible conclusion and
one that should be heeded by every buddy of this great organiza
tion.
"Liquor prices in Canada to decline,'' is a headline to a cur

reason assigned is that Walter M.

member of the commission, and there

in public in any official capacity for
