It is not a difficult matter for
the man with a Rood position, a
comfortable home and many
friends to criticise and condemn
the man who is in possession of
none of these essentials to an
enjoyable existence. How often
do we hear the remark made
when the army of the unemploy
ed is mentioned, "Oh. well, they
wouldn't work if they had the
the chance to do so." Such
statements may be true of the
small minority of down-and-outs,
but cannot be applied to the
largo majority of those who hit
the bread line. No man. no
matter how far he may have do
Bcended in the scale of life, can
possibly feel contented and hup
py with an empty pocket book
m his jeans, while those who
prefer continual idleness to hon
est labor of some kind are not
plentiful enough in one city to
comprise an army of hundreds
and of thousands of voluntary
idlers.

M. E. Church Notes
of living up to every cent you earn, is not
so much in the loss of money which you
might otherwise have saved, as in the ex
travagant habits thus culivated. The person
who saves nothing today would never save
a penny even were his income suddenly in
creased two-fold or even three-fold.
Therefore, the sooner you start
(hat hank account, the sooner
will your worries about the fu
ture be at an end.
