"Save and Have' For Success and Happiness r Benjamin Franklin . . ..statesman, philosopher, sage counsellor of Thrift! As his birthday nears and the nation prepares to pay tribute to his memory, it is well and only appropriate that we recall one or two of the maxims he left to guide the destiny of generations to come . . brilliantly worded creations of his master mind that Time will never relegate to a forgotten past. Of the many accredited to him on the subject of Economy, probably none is more to the point than his simple quotation . . . "Save and Have!" Three little words but they speak a volume of Truthful Advice! It is not what you earn . . . what financial remuneration tlie world pays you for your labor and skill . . : that counts. It's what you SAVE . . . how much of the fruit of your eforts you reserve for the future ... that brings you the blessings of Success and Happiness! A substantial accumulation of money gives you the confidence and courage to forge ahead to your aims in Life ... to realize your fondest ambitions! With it, you don't have to wait for Opportunity to knock . . . you have the power to MAKE your own Opportunity! And, best of all, it's the material that builds for a happy, contented old age . . . free of all worries! St) during National Thrift Week, Jan.
