STRAUS Prts'tdtnt Amirican Socitty fsr Thrift While the laving of money is by no means the sum total of thrift, as some people seem to think, it is most essen tial to the up building of a thrifty char acter. The late James J. Hill declared that the ability to save money was the surest index of success. It was his belief, based on many years of experience and observation, that he who had not sufficient strength of character to save money would never be successful. It is a sign of weakness to be a spendthrift and there never was a time when this was more true than today. We are now at the end of the vacation period and a great many organizations are encouraging their employes to form vacation clubs. These are conducted about the same as the Christmas clubs formed for the purpose of saving for holi day needs. Organizations of this kind are worthy of encouragement for two very good reasons. First: they encourage the saving habit; second: they enable the limited wage-earner by means of this easy economy to secure beneficial pleas ures. In many of tfiese savings eluos, interest is paid on the small de posits made so that at the end of the year the employe, by means of a little economy, for fifty weeks or so, has a good sum to his credit and a little interest earnings he sides. For example: One plan is worked out by which the . saver deposits $5.00 a week for fifty SEVEN Mort. M. Burger Skin Eruptions to This Old Remedy (tf Eczema and other skin eruptions.

Champ Clark Made Plea for Practical Patriotism Monmouth Court House, N. J.,' Sept. 3. A plea for practical patriotism in support of the government during the war was made by Speaker Champ Clark, of the house of representatives, in. a speech hore today at a Labor Day celebration. Speaker (lark also de clared that President' Wilson ' answer to the pope's peace proposal is "by far the strongest, clearest and 'most re sounding of big state papers and will bo rosl forever." ,, ' "It is the duty of every American man and woman," said Speaker Clark, " to support the government m every possible manner. It is plain, impera tive duty we owe our ancestors, our selves and posterity," he declared. "Patrietism does not consist of pub lic speeches, braying bands, flag be decked parades and vociferous asser tions of love of country, but of being a thorough-going American. " TRY JOtlRNAl WANT ADS Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S ASTORIA weeks, when he will have to his credit for his vacation, or for any other purpose desired, $253.31; $2.00 a week saved for the same period will give him the lump sura of $101.32: $1.00 a week will give him $50.66. Another idea called the five-cent progressive plan requires a deposit of S cents the first week, 10 cents the second, and so on, increasing 5c each week. At the end of fifty weeks, the member of the club will have to his credit $64.21. The 2c reducing club plan requires a de posit of $1.00 the first week, 98c the second, and so on, for fifty weeks, the amount deposited being re duced 2c each week. At the end of fifty weeks, the depositor will have $25.88. The 5c reducing plan, which requires an initial deposit of $2.50 the first week and a decrease of 5c each week thereafter will, in fifty weeks, accumulate $6475. These are interesting facts and they illustrate, in a simple way, the value of saving systematically and the power of thrift. Shop girls, factory girls and others who are working for comparatively small wages, should be encouraged by their employers to take up some such plan as here outlined. By the saving of a few cents a day or week, they will have a neat sum' next summer to use on their vaca tion trip or to provide the founda tion for still greater savings. If they keep this up for a year it will work a transformation in their character, because it is one of the fundamental truths- of human na ture that a person who learns to save systematically for one year will continue to do so for life. Let us encourage the vacation club wherever possible. It will start many a bov or girl, man or woman on the road to a thrifty career, and thrift means success, ease of mind, self-confidence, poise, happiness.
