THRIFT ESSENTIAL
FOR PROSPERITY
(By George Wheeler Hinmanl
Chicago We are advise ddaily by
the economists that bv thrift we must
restore the capital destroyed by the
war.
If thrifty, we are assured, we can
make good in 12 years the total de
struction of the EuroDean conflict
Only by thrift, we are warned, we
can get the abundant capital which
means permanently easy money and
oreaic; permanently prosperous busi
ness and national welfare. ,
The opportunity for thrift is here.
The cost of living has gne down 30
to 40 percent certainly one-third,
in the last year.
The man who lived through war
times, and still is in business, may
now save a part of his income if
fie wishes.
He may buy the same things he
bought a year ago, and at the end of
the month have a surplus to put In
the bank. Or, he may buy more
tnmgs tnan he boiieht a year ae-o
and at the end of the month have
nothing but receipted bi!ls. It is his
choice.
How is he choosing? Often Fensi
bly; that is one raason why there are
so many signs of business improve
ment; sometimes foo'ialily; that is
one reason why the improvement is
not more generfL'
The lesson of thrift is sti'l to bo
learned in many cases.
For example: Tabulations of
household budgets, family expendi
tures, come to hand every wvk.
From , readincr them one often irets
the impression that such things as
potroast, leg of mutton, side meat,
spare ribs and hens are as much
out of style as cabbages and kings,
and that only sliced ham at 50 cents
a pound, porterhouse Steak, rib chops,
rib roasts and broilers are fit food
for any American family.
Even government statisticians seem
to hold this point of view. They still
figure out health and decencv "stand
ards." which one must SDend $2600
or $3000 a year to live ud to. and
which would condemn four-fifths of
the head and hand workers in the
United States ministers, doctors,
teachers, among others to an inde
cent life, and not distant death.
But there are plenty of signs in
daily life to the same effect. One
does not have to read books, or cir
culars, to find them. '
A jtoung woman earning1 $25
week, pays S18 for a pair of suede
shoes. There are thousands like her
and so such shoes still stand at $18
in the shops.
A man pays $16 for a pair of shoes.
although by walking a few blocks he
can get equally good ones for $9.
And so, with the raw materials for
shoes costing less than ten years aeo.
the $16 shoe is still priced .and sold
as readily to some men, as 'in 1918.
A few miles (from Chicaeo. the
proprietor of a drug store drives a
medium priced motor car: he owns
the business. His deliverv "bov"
also drives a car, which, new, cost
only a few hundred dollars less than
the proprietor's.
The other evening a seven-pasaen
ger motor car droveup to a house
where the writer was to dine. A
woman got out, who afterwards ap
peared m the dining room as a wait
ress. Her father, who was not over
paid as a small town employe, had
Drought her in his machine to do her
bit of work and he called for her
later when the bit was done.
Very good, lucky father and for
tunate daughter; perhaps it is cap
tious to mention it only, if motor
cars, cord tires and gasoline are to
continue to be necessary to the
"health and decency" standard of
of living, the readjustment is certain
ly complicated, and the reconstruc-
tion will have to be notably revised
and prolonged.
How many persons have heard the
expression from unemployed men of
late, "I'd starve before I'd work for
$5 a day?"
rivnty of them, if they have kept
their ears open. But why multiply
cases?
XT ! it. wnrfl tlOKSIUlPi "l
would be gratified to see all delivery
boys ride in touring cars,
motor to their appointments, all the
men and women walk down the
boulevard in $18 suocios anu "

wages that wouiu nuiiu "
look like starvation.
Only it is not possible; there is m
ntnnoir nnnllirh 111 the United State;
even in the flush times of war, tH'',H,
was not enough money. It all or uh

then been taken away from thMr
possessors and had Deen uisvnuuw-u
anion the rest of us, we snouiu
have received an increase of less
than a dollar a week each.
What is the lesson? Smiply that

"MONEY NOT NECESSARY,"
SAYS STUDENT PRESIDENT
University of Orecon, Euirene
"Two things are necessary to acquire
a college education ambition and
energy. With these two qualities,
money is a non-essential," declares
Carlton R. Savage, president of the
Associated Students of the University
nf Orpcnn. who has made his way un
tirelv. thus baekincr ud his statement
that money is not a necessary condi
tion of college education.
Mr. Savage, who will graduate in
June, and who was elected to the
highest office among the students,
has turned his hand at a multitude
of jobs in order to earn his own way.
He has served as a waiter in a res
taurant, as a maid-of-all-work in a
private home, putting in wood, work
ing in a cafeteria, waiting table at
Friendly hall and as laundry aeent.
During the summer he has worked
in the harvest fields, in the forest
service and has clerked in a country
store.
"My four years at the University
of Oregon," he says, "have made me
a firm believer in education, and have
made me a better citizen."

pany's business, which growth continued in a very sat
isfactory measure during 1920.
A large amount of additional business is now wait
ing the construction of additions and extensions. The
demands for service increase steadily in a much faster
ratio than the increase in population.
These services are vital to public welfare. The
market for them is as stable and enduring as our cities,
towns and agricultural districts.

University of Oregon, EuKene
The women students of the Univer

quence, in scholarship, by following
out the program of Dr. Bertha Stu

"College girls need more food than
their parents, because they are still
growing and because they are more
active, she says.
"The vitames and other growth
stimulating properties are found es
pecially in green vegetables and milk
and eggs and butter," she explains.
"Therefore, green vegetables and
butter, milk Bnd eggs should form
