THE AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION
WINTER THEN WHAT?
ITE HAVE had so little real winter
V V weather m far this year that our
people have hardly realized its be
ing here. However, the rather balmy
weather of the lat week is a remin
der, even if a severe seige does set
in, that Spring is in the offing and
with it will come days of activity. Are
we preparing now, planning the
spring's work, that it may be system
atized, so that our toil may be made
to count for the utmost?
People are prone to take life so
easy during a lull that they become
fat and laiy, and if not watchful of
themselves they may overlook the
glorious opportunity that is theirs.
There is a time for preparation and
a time for execution. Now is the
time for preparation. When the time
comes to get busy, we must pet busy.
There is no time then for planning.
The work must be done at once. The
fact then is self-evident: he who
has his work mapped out beforehand
will get his work done up in good
shape, while he who has neglected to
do so will find at the end of the sea
son that he overlooked a good half
of what should have been done. Then
when the harvest comes, prosperity
smiles on him who has looked "to
his knitting."
Ia Heppner going through 1924
with the same eye-sores staring her
citixens in the face that they have
looked upon all through 1923? Are
these self-same citixens thinking
about a thorough renovating of their
premises? Not only inside, but out
side as well? In fact is there any
kind of a erne program being planned
to make Heppner a more attractive
place in which to live? We have
beard of none, have you? The time
for preparation is at hand. Only
few short weeks, and then we should
be busy.
There is no effective argument
against helping our town. We have
chosen this place as our abode. While
we are here, even though we do not
intend to stay long, our abiding will
be much more pleasant in a clean, up-
to-date community. Then, if we in
tend to leave, the attraction which
we have to offer a prospective suc
cessor would repay us many times in
a monetary way. If we are disgust
ed with our town, with ourselves and
with everyone else, because things
happen to be a little tight, let's swal
low our loss and pack up. A town
that's not good enough to do some
thing for should not be good enough
for us to live in.
This sentiment is not new. We have
beard it and so have you. Mot ev-

THRIFT,
A Message from the Oregon Bankers
A association,
EVERY true American thrilla at the
mere mention of Independence. It
is the bone and sinew, the heart and
soul of our Democracy.
It is that for which our ancestors
fought and died in the Revolutionary
War. We celebrate with great re
joicing each year when Independence
Day comes around and we are partic
ularly proud of the Declaration of In
dependence as the greatest American
document.
This is as it should be. The attain
ment of American Liberty is the fin
est achievement in our national life,
and in its preservation every one of
us would gladly lay down his life.
But that is only one kind of liberty,
one form of Independence political
and religious freedom.
There is another and exceedingly
important kind of Independence that
is directly related to the daily lives.
the well-being, comfort and happiness
of each one of us: an Independence
that ia vital to the preservation of
our national integrity. Without it
we would degenerate from a nation of
sovereign individuals to one of prac
tical slavery. This is Economic In
dependence; the assurance of being
abie to provide for the material needs
of life: the physical comforts and
even luxuries that can make living
today so thoroughly enjoyable. -
That is why we celebrate Thrift
Week each year. Thrifty living will
enable you m later years to look up
on Thrift Week as a Holiday Week
to show your happiness at having
achieved Financial Independence.
How can you do it? By starting
now to save something systematically
each week out of what you earn. Put
these savings in the bank at interest
and make your money work for you.

Frank C. Riblet, from Gallon. Ohio, bad every right to but
didn't Riblet'a father owned a store in Gallon and couldn't make
it pay. Hia family were la abject poverty. Taken from school when
a small child be started aa a freight train coupler in the yards of
Gallon, Then be became a render of candy oo a train from Crestline
to Indianapolis. Next be fired a locomotive and then became an engi
neer, holding bis job eleven years. He built a shanty to live In and
pent half of each night studying bow to make more money, and
starving himself to save every penny. v
Then be went to Cleveland and as a free lance tried to sell real
estate. He hit upon a novel scheme of taking an option on a lot trading
the Lot Cor a grocery store, developing the store and selling It His
profits were meagre but they were profits.
With them be bought a half interest In a livery stable, paying $86
down. He found himself handicapped by a competitive livery man,
so with three city lots bought on option be traded them for bis com
petitor's business and gave blm coles in addition. Wltb the profits
from both stables be took ap the options and bought more real estate
co option. Then Rib let took a 99-year lease on land next to a big hotel,
erected a five-story livery barn and doubled bis income.
When his wife's health failed be sold out and went to Arizona,
living there three years, then returned to Cleveland. He made plans
to erect the finest garage in town but stopped to have bis picture taken.
Becoming interested In photography he went across the street, rented
store, hired the photographer's clerk who bad waited on him. to run
It, and started to do business. It became necessary for blm to hire six
avsslstants.
Recently RIblet became interested in Texas oil wells. He struck
U the first shot at 1300 feet He used a peculiar argument In securing
capital He Impressed upon each investor that the risk tbey ran was
Crest He suggested that each one put In onlv what he could afford
to lose In case of failure.
Today Eiblet la a well preserved man of seventy-one. and is worth
million dollars.
gether the result is Prosperity. It is
not alone what you make, but how
you spend and what you save that
counts in the end. And remember that
hoarded money is lazy money. Be
sure that your money is well invested
and is working for you.
Dicken s famous character, Mr. Mi-
cawber, in David Cope rfi eld, says
Annual income 20; annual expen
diture, 19 19s 6d result: Happi
ness; annual income 20, annual ex
penditure 20 6s result: Misery."
It ia the margin of saving that
makes all the difference and it is the
little sums we save regularly that
give us the capital on which to build
later in life.
But it is not in the saving of money
and material things alone that one
achieves a thrifty life.
The wise employment of our time
and the conservation of our physical
energies are equally important.
Time is the essence of our life. The
only time we can be sure of is the
present moment To live a happy,
healthy, contented life, we must make
careful and wise expenditure of our
time, our abilities and our resources.
It is so easy to fritter away our
time, dissipate our health and waste
our money foolishly. We should make
every minute, every ounce of energy
and every penny return full value to
us.
We cannot be thrifty by proxy; the
practice of it must be by individual
choice and determination.
Acquire the habit of spending your
money, your time and your strength i
as effectively as you can.
The immortal Scotch bard, Bobby
Bums, with his native canniness,
sums up Thrift in these words writ
ten to a friend:
To catch Dame Fortune's golden smile ,
Assiduous wait anon her,
And gather gear by every wile
That's justified by Honor.
Not for to hide it in a hedge.
Not for a train attendant.
But for the glorious privilege
Of being Independent
Read about men who have done
worthwhile things in the world and
you will find that they held Thrift as
the fundamental, cardinal habit on
which to build a successful, happy,
respected career.
Benjamin Franklin is perhaps the
outstanding exponent of Thrift among
notable Americans and today we hon
or his memory in the observance of
Thrift Week.

Adoption of the proposed Bok peace
plan would be an excellent memorial
