They Come to the Parks to Learn Thrift In Honolulu, Hawaii, a new feature consisted of holding an outdoor mass meeting in different parks throughout the city each evening of the week. A program of movies, music and effec tive thrift talks proved very popular and the attendance ran as high as eight hundred. Another feature was a large meeting to which only boys and girls under eighteen years of ago were- admitted who had earned and saved three dollars or more. A bonk book was presented as the ticket of admission: Here the Hono lulu Junior Thrift Club was organiz ed, the president being the one with the largest bank account. The banks gave prizes to the five with the largest amount of savings. 1 he es say contest was more effective than in previous years, due to new fea tures. The department of public in struction sent out a list of ten sub jects to all the teachers throughout the territory the first of the month. Practically every student from the fifth grade to the senior high school wrpte thrift essays. The governor issued a proclamation. President Coolidne Endorses Thrift Week The American people, taken as n whole, hove been very quick to grasp the benefits' that result from thrift and industry, and the cultivation of a saving disposition. They have not only deposited money in banks, but invested it in all kinds of business enterprises. Those who have started in this di rection have always found that real satisfaction arises, not from indul gence., but from achievement. Those who save regularly find an increasing power, not only of finances, but of character. It is throuxh the use of such power, for wise and just ends. ! that we can better our whole indus- j trial and commercial establishment. It is not too much to say that the growth of America, as we know it, has been the result of these agencies. !t has been, not only the vision and the high purpose of our forefathers, but likewise their work and their sav ings, which have created our country, mid on- the continuation of which the whole future and welfare of our peo ple rests. The habit of saving is a constructive virtue. Loyal Legion Will Meet Monday Night WRINOKIELD, Jan. S'.. (So cial).

Clear Statement of Facts as Set Forth by 11. Jlungerford. Honey power this vital force in our civiliza tionis a" major factor in the' life of almost evei individual. Whn t can this economic energy called mon ey do for a human beingf It can add much to his happiness. ' It can supply wholesome food and comfortable shelter. It can provide the recreation that makes for good health. It can make possible educational advantages, sludv courses anil travel, that tend to fulness of life' V It can bring the necessities and many of the comforts of life. It can insure, through safe investments, eco nomic independence freedom from financial wor ries. ' It can, by being wisely given to worthy causes, yield a blessing to the giver and a boon to hu manity, i Or it can, if this money power is not properly engineered, become a deadly curst destroying body and soul. llow can a person secure a sufficient amount of money power to possess the worthwhile quali ties it is capable of providing? Many books have been written to answer this question. Strange as it may seem to some folks, the volume which gives the best answer a prac tical one not difficult to follow is the Bible. Much is said in this Good Book about money, its tremendous power for happiness and sorrow Christ, himself, talked more on this subject than any other. Tho substance of His teachings is seek first a right attitude toward material wealth' then .happiness and prosperity will follow not in any miraculous fashion but usuallv slowly and sure ly. To work at something useful to society is a moral obligation laid on every individual. In, order for civilization to be maintained on its pres ent basis, to say nothing of advancement, a cer tain amount of constructive labor must bo per formed daily. Food products must be grown, railroads must be operated, homes must be built. Every person who is a good sportsman will want to tlo his share. He will want to do more. Keal happiness comes through notable achievement. That in turn is the reward for an attitude toward work which inspires the worker to enthusiastically inject bis maximum energy into the task at hand. Such a conception of usefulness brings its sure return in dollars. Advancement is almost certain to fol low one who adopts such nn ideal. Business men have found truth in the slogan "lie who serves best profits most." There is another source of money power wise spaiiding.
