Here is the official federation mes sage for "thrift week": The average wapo earner and people In more moderate walks ot life are soendine their Incomes reckletrsly and extravagant ly. 1 no time naa come when the family pocket book must be protected. From all over our land comes the cry that it is the women's organization which muet educate these people to conserve their incomes. The study of the family budget is recom mended. Reekie se expenditure of every kind is to be frowned upon. The thrift message is to be taken into the homes, the bchoota and churches, to clubs, lodges and sisterhoods ox all kinds. We, as oiub workers, must accept the responsibility to .see that this is done. Woman is the recognized leader of all that to good in the community and let us as sums the dlrectnon of this great peace movement. Some serious questions confront us in the study of this interesting subject; some of them gleaned from Thrift Adventures' and which will be of benefit in school and club work: , The cost of our .amusements. Do we make wise use of our time during the holiday season? The art of entertaining at small cost. Expending money at fairs and bazaars. How did the richest man in town earn Ms first dollar? My first bargain. My one extravagance. Wants that I can do without. Are there things in my actio Which. I or anyone can trse? Do we waste roe! by hemtinc unused rooms? Is it wise to buy on the Installment plan or to have things charged? How to follow the styles and save money. "Lert us spend wisely, save sanely, in vest safely."

It includes large appropriations of money to be used for education in the United States. The number of illiterates in our country and the fact that there are at present 100,000 classrooms without teachers demon strates the crying need for a govern ment bureau of education which will standardize teachers' salaries and en courage a vocation which is being depleted because of insufficient in come, said Mrs. Fratis.

When her husband came to Portland last May to become asso ciated with the Portland Flouring mill interests, the family followed him a month later and Mrs. Edwards finished her manuscript in Oregon.

It deals with Americanization and has spectacular scenes showing the shoot ing of soldiers on armistice day aid 1 1 has done much dialect reading and is -familiar with practically every ! alien interpretation of the American tongue. This has been of great as sistance in writing the pageant, as it also depicts the arrival of- many of the immigrants and shows the sur roundings which influence their later activities.
