Tho -young 'Philadelphia printer who became a statesman
fnd tit symliol of thiift in' Amrica was Unn on January
7U, . Today,' Benjamin Franklin is known to more people
for the .Crisp nnd appropriate savings published through his
Poor Rithard's Almanac than for any other accomplishment.
! That's only natural. The things he observed in such last
ing words then t pplird to human conditions and human
needs. And they apply with equal emphasis today. Although
our manner of woiking, of canting, of living has changed
greatly from that known by young Franklin when he trudged
the streets of Philadelphia with a loaf of bread under each
rrm, the necessity for wine (-.pending and for planned savingj
is just as gieat now !is cv;r. ' )
' People have placed Franklin on a pedestal as Hie ideal
of Thrift for a i-.pccific reason, lie not only preached thrift
but practiced it. He woiked and saved, and piopounded his
Views on thiift out of the wealth of experience acquired in
his own life. . ' , '
Fcaivh the story of Franklin's life as you will, we doubt
if you can find any evidence that stinginess had any place
in his rhako-up. . Thrift didn't mean being "tight," as we
say today, and neither did it menu living under depiessing
conditions or enduring pcisoiu.l hardships. Franklin's idea
of thrift- was upending less than he had earned, of saving
some and therefore having when t lis need atone, of buying
with wi.-(!om and care so that h's earnings were dispersed
to the best possible advantage.
There's nothing objecti'.ivible or over-burdensome in such
a progiam of living. It simply means that we should prac
tice the installment plan of buyin.", on our bank accounts, out
building and loan fund, on d pcndablt and wisely selected
investments. It means that a family's standaui of living
should be tlelei mined liv its staiulaid 01" income, that It
should neither be tiditulously below tho limits of that in
come nor foolishly beyond it. Thrift is simply good common
sense and good business judjvmi nt applied to an individual's
or a family's affairs.
Thiift week's observation should mean something to
everyone. H should serve as un in: piiation to savings, to
increased protection for one's family, to more intelligent
spending. Now, as two hundred years ago, thrift can ies its
own reward.
