HERE is an economy wave over the land. American peonle are beginning to realize ' that they are living too fast, beyond their means. It has been the rule that the man efith $20,000 a year as well as the man with * $2,000 a year lives up to every penny of hb income. Slowly but surely this order of tilings is changing. The era of extravagance and waste in business and personal expenses b nearing an end. Efficiency and economy b the order of the day. Bank deposits are growing. I t is up to every one to economize. The best and surest way to do so is to place your surplus in the bank. If you already have a bank account make it a point from today on to increase it. Add to it weekly, daily if possible. IF YOU HAVEN’T A BANK ACCOUNT DE CIDE TO OPEN ONE TODAY. . “An optimist,” said Uncle Eben, “Is an <igbt ’ceptin* when he gits co com fortable In hlc'mlnd dat he goeo to sleep on de Job.* Moro Presbyterian Church: Bible school at 10 a.m., F.
