Every year at this tim e, the w eek w hich begin s on B en-
iatnin Franklin's birthday. January 17th. is celebrated as
N ational Thrift W eek. We think th is is a pretty goodI idea,
and that this year. 1932. is a particularly good year in * b ic h
to do a little thinking about thrift.
An im m ense am ount of th e trouble w hich th is country'
experienced in 1931. and to a lesser degree in 193 . cam e
about because a large num ber o f people forgot all about
thrift in the boom years from 1923 to 1929. T here w a s al
w ays a ch an ce to get a b etter job at m ore m oney, so w hy
worry about laying a n y th in g asid e for a rainy day
But
there w ere a lot o f people— tw e n ty m illions or to — w h o put
som eth in g ou t o f every pay en velop e into a savin gs bank
or a building and loan a sso cia tio n or a p iece of property or
som eth in g else of perm anent value. T h o se i>eople w ho w ere
thrifty are the o n es w ho are not com p lain in g of d istress in
th ese hard tim es.
Thrift does not m ean hoarding m oney aw ay w here it
does nobodv any good. It is thrift to buy or build a hom e,
or to put a little m oney aw ay every pay day for a life insur
ance or old age fund. R unning into debt is not alw ays
thriftless, provided the debt is for so m eth in g o f a ctu al value
and the regular paym en ts on principal and in terest are not

w ho are in the w orst trouble today are th e o n e s w ho w ent
