' A LITTLE TALK OW Towering Strength of His Genius Would Have Been -; Lost But for His Thrift By S. W. Straus, Presidend Amer ican Society for Thrift. ; Thrift in the lives of most men constitute the difference between success or j failure, A notable in stance is the career of Abraham Lincoln. . When a young . man, Lincoln ran a small general store in Salem, 111. He failed in this business with debts of $1100. Then he disposed of the store to two men, taking their notes. They sold everything of value and slipped away. Lin coln the failure, was -left with-his $1100 - debts, which, in that , day was a very large sum of money. He went to work with thrift iind industry. He skimped and saved. One - of his creditors be came obdurate, sued him and ob tained a Judgement.. Lincoln's horse, saddle, bridle and surveying outfit were" sold at auction.- Through the entire period of Lincoln's early manhood, from 25 to 49, he struggled with that debt. At last It was paid. I Lincoln could have taken an easier way, like the two men who left him with the bag to hold. He could have disappeared! from Salem. But the world would have lost its greatest statesman . and humanity one of its noblest hen factors had he done so. Throughout his entire life up to . the time he became president of the United States he stood face to face with failure. Without thrift and industry he would have gone down to defeat; J - At this time of the year, when the civilized, world Is giving spec ial thought j to this man of the prairies. It is of value to note that the towering Btrength. of his gen ius would have been lost to man kind hatlS it 'not been for his per sistency jn the practices of thrift and I Industry. , Lift Off-No j Doesn't i hart one bit!

ALL READ FOB BIB ROLL CALL Kickoff ts to Be Given Mon day Morning When Work- ers Assemble The service cluts of Salem beaded by the Lions are to be on hand Monday for. the kickoff of the American Red Cross roll call. Never before In the history of the local organization has there been such & determined effort to make the roll call an outstanding ' suc cess. Besides the Lions, the Ki wanis, Rptary clubs are to be on hand with their representation, while the- Marion-Polk county Realtors, and the American Leg Ion are to make the service clubs get down and hump. .- The" city ha3 been divided Into more than. 100 districts and it is the plan of T.- SI. Hicks, who is in charge of the Salem Roll Call, to have two workers in each district. The city is to be combed . thor oughly. It is urgently requested that the Salem: people respond to the Roll Call with a larger, sum than $1. Part of the money goes to the national organization, and if more than a dollar is given the. greater portion of the sum is used in this district. Just -50 cents of the roll call is sent to the national organization, which r e n d e r s prompt assistance in time of great disasters; but it is. the everyday service ' and assistance, rendered to ex-service men and , their families. Attention should be given . the Roll Call because in this district the Red Cross secretary makes out a larger number of papers for ex-service men. Sometime the mili tary records are destroyed and the men are not. able to secure ; the proper hospital treatment, to se cure the proper allotment or com pensation from . the federal gov ernments : ' ' At the . present time many World , war veterans are rated only 20 percent disability who should be rated 50 per cent, and the Red Cross service secures the proper re-rating for them, with a corresponding increased compens ation for the government.

The monument is a remem brance that belongs to the com munity instead of Marion county and must be cared for. At the present time there is a deficit of $1320 which is drawing interest at a high rate, and it is necessary that, the debt be paid. The veter ans decided to secure the co-operation of the community. in secur ing funds to pay the deficit.
