THOUGHTS FOR THE
OCCASION
Jonuary 17th was tho anniversary of Bonjamln Pronklln.
Tho object of Thrift Week Is an honor wo pay annually to
thlB grcut American philosopher, educator, and one who
assisted In tho forming of tho constitution of our groat gov
ernment. Thrift Week ls established as a great memorial
to him who advocated and practiced It In his own life. His
works and his accomplishments will llvo In tho hearts of
Americans for all time to come. .
Wo foci that tho principal of thrift should bo practiced
In cvory American homo, not only on Thrift Week, but every
day throughout the year. Tho place to begin Is at the cradle,
and fathers and mothers aro the farmers of the human plant
In tho family, and they will grow up about the way they aro
trained, for "as the twig Is bent, the tree ls Inclined.
Tho purpose of Thrift Week Is to help people think straight
Bnd act wisely, and especially In the matters of earnings,
savings, spendlngs and glvlngs. to teach simple and Bound
economic truths, to develop character and to apply Christian
principals In all money matters, and to mako tho slogan
"fitlccess and happiness" a reality.
It Is important that men bo producers and not consumers
only, to work and earn. The idlo man never was a success
and no man ovor attained glory and respect without work.
Tho greatest men of our day havo attained their accomplish
ments through hard work, hard knocks, and actual experi
ence. To wasto time ls to waste onergy. An Idlo brain Is
tho foundation of devilish action.
We urge that men bocome home ownors. thereby helping
them to save, giving them grcator standing In tho community
and creating respect. Wo urge that every man mako a will,
thereby directing how his property shall bo divided for the
protection of hi family, and last but not lenst, we urge thorn
to carry a bank account. This enables ono to pay his bills In a
business llko way, and gives you a receipt for tho payment
of your bills, creates prestige and confidence among your
friends, makes you feel free to ask advice of your Banker,
who usually has tho welfare of his patrons at heart, whoso
advice I generally worthy of consideration, and who Is a
friend In deed.
