THURSDAY, JANUARY 10,1917 THE PEOPLE ARE SAVING It has been pointed out as evi dence o.f how strongly the duty of saving had been impressed upon the English people by the War-savings campaign in that country that in the year 1916, although purchasing billions of dollars of war bonds, the small savings-bank depositors in Eng land increased their deposits in savings banks over $60,000,- 000, this In the face of the fact that the English have been not ed as a spending rather than as a saving people. It seems that a similar pro cess has taken place in Amer ica. Two great Liberty Loans Were floated in the year just closing, and nearly $6,000,000,- 000 of Liberty Loan Bonds were purchased by the people. Yet instead of being depleted the savings-banks deposits of the country have been increased. The president of one of the large New York savings banks is quo ted as saying on December 20, 1917: "One of the most remarkable things about the Liberty Loan campaigns is the small effect they have had oa the savings banks accounts, which show an increase. This we lay to the appeals made to the American people to purchase the bonds out of .their earnings, paying for them from week to week- or from month' to month. The peo pie appear to be doing as they have been urged, purchasing the bonds from current savings."

Our govern ment and the allies to a large extent depend on these mines for their munitions of war. The public generally has little idea of the magnitude of the indus try or the thousands of men it employs in mines and smelters. The average citizen thinks of a mine as an easy place to make money. As a matteir of fact developing a mine takes more nerve, energy and money than any other line of business. Nev er before was the mining of copper, lead, iron, zinc, sliver, gold and other metals of such paramount Importance to our nation and never before was it bo highly important to encour age these industries in every manner possible by Just and equitable legislation. Manufac WAR SAVINGS STAMPS Uncle Sam's War Savings Stamps "drive" isn't really go ing to be a "drive" at all. Rath er it's going to be a campaign of education, the drive features of which will be conscientious effort to drive home knowledge and appreciation of the real life giving results of thrift into the heart and head of every Amer ican mother ana" father and each of their little ones. There will be no centralized "drive" to. raise the $17,000,000 Uncle Sam has asked Oregon to furnish by the sale of War Savings Stamps. The Campaign will last throughout the New Year. There will be no effort to "drive" the people of Oregon in to the purchase of War Savings Stamps and Thrift Stamps. Uncle Sam wants Oregonians . to develop and practice habits of thrift to such an extent thati they will do their own "driving" I and again send Oregon "over the top" with colors .flying.

"Isn't it a good cart" "I've seen worse ones, but it comes a long way from being what your agent represented it to be." "Of course it does. Why, man alive, if our cars were as good as that we wouldn't need to employ agents to sell them." New York World. A Dismal Room.
