WENS TEA ROOM
Some weeks a?:o we carried a re
port in these columns of a meeting
of the Cedar Mountain Home Demon
stration Club at which the young
ladies of the organization decided to
operate a tea room near the Cedar
Mt. post office. It was stated that
•the Cedar Mountain club was the
first home dar.ionEtration organiza
tion in the state to venture on such
an enterprise. The undertaking is
110 longer a venture. It is a success
Jar surpassing the hopes of its most
enthusiastic promoters.
The Cedar Mountain Tea Room op
ened its doors for the service of the
public last Saturday afternoon at
one o’clock and within three
liours ten motoring parties had
:-itopped to sar/.ple the ice-cold milk
<ind home cookin"' rind gone on thsir
Avay looking forward to the time
when they could come back and di
recting all their friends to the new
lea room.
The members of the Home Demon-
.stration Club have entire charge of
every feature, of their new business.
Each girl in the club has a tenth acre
ji'ardeii which she is to cultivate with
a stated amount of help. The vegeta
bles fro.n these gardens supply the
tea room. They :'.re purchased from
the owners at market price by the
iManagement. The tea room has a
rrer.cral manager, a business manager,
n secrolary and a trcarurer elected
from the membership of the home
<icmonstration club and turn all re-
■eeipts above their expenditures into
ttio club treasury. The money made

F;umr< will be handled by
the club in an effort to create a home

the best u?e of home productr, and
h.onic talent is tl'.o motive of the Ce-

and this idv'a has been carried out to
a V ide extent in the inauguration of
liuir new business. For the location
tlieir tea room they procured a
building formerly used for a store

umber of years and was in a rather
<‘elapidated condition. With hammer

tJliey went to v.ork. With the help of
corn tlub boys the interior of the

li-is to be seen to be appreciated. With
'::s rustic tables topped by growing
juaidenhair ferns it makes a welcome
retreat for the dusty traveler.
The home demonstration clubs, of
v hich there are several in the county 1
h'Ave been organized by Miss Lula

The plan of the hand grenade bank’
o’‘1r:!natod In the Treasury Dapart-
and tho banks are being dls-
trihiitrf! in tWn d:?trict by the War
Lo n Oig.inidation liere. Every school
child unfier the age of seventeen years
m;iy, by applying at the local bank, re
ceive one of these hand grenade
ppisny-banks as a loan for thn vaca
tion period. If, during the summer,
enpugh money is saved to purchase
one or more War Savings Stamps the
bank becomes the property of the
child.
The banks are made out of real hand
grenades that were to have been used
against the Huns. "With percussion
cap and high explosive removed, and
slots cut to receive and take out coins,
they are now doing service against
tho enemy, waste, as banks for sav
ings.
School officials all over the district
are enthusiastic about the plan, as
they feel that it will not only keep
Rlive but strengthen the thrift ideals
thr.t already have been implanted in
fcha minds of the children.
J. H*. Binford, assistant superinten
dent of public schools here, has en
dorsed the scheme, in a recent letter
ezprossing the hope that all the banks
in the district would co-operate by get
ting supplies of the hand grenades, as
the school children are enthusiastic
about securing them.

Are Rapidly Being Organized.
What is True Americanism?
True Americanism is this:
1. To Believe that the inalterable
rights of man to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness are given by
<!cd.
2. To Believe that any form of
power that tramples on these rights
i.s uiijust.
3. To Believe, that taxation with
out representation is tyranny, that
j^overnment must rest upon the con-
s-.ent of the governed and that the
people should choose their own rulers.
4. To Believe, that freedom must
be safe guarded by law and order
and that the end of freedom is fair
play to all.
5. To Believe not in a forced
equality of conditions and estates
but in a true equalization of burdens
and privileges and opportunities.
6. To Believe that the selfish in
terests of persons, classes and sec
tions must be subordinated to the wel
fare of the commonwealth.
7. To BelicTe that Union is as much
a human necessity as liberty 'is a
divine gift.
8. To Believe, not that all people individual member to learn
are good but that the way to make | yalue to himsvlf of being thrifty.
First-hand information and sugges
tions as to how to obtain increased
efficiency and prosperity may now be
obtained by women on the farm, in
any part of the country, from the homt
demonstration agents of the depart
ment of agriculture. Entering into the
national savings movement with a z-3st
that characterizes all their work,
some eighteen hundred of these home
d'?mon3trf*tion agents h^ve been carry
ing the message of thrift into the farm
houses all over tlie Un:te.d States.
In appr.?ciation of their voliuitarily
undertaken work. Director Braddock
has written a letter to each worker,
of commendation, which reads in part:
“Thrift i.s primarily the people’s con
cern. If thrift is to become a perma
nent national asset, the people’s agen
cies and organizations must definitely
assume their share of responsibility
for inculcating thrift by including it
In their program for action. Srf^hools,
churches, business and labor organiza
tions, fraternal societies and women’s
organizations, as well as agricultural
workers and agencies, are already un
dertaking this Avork and are in close
co-operation with the treasuiy de
partment.”
According to Mr. Braddock’s letter,
plans for the creation of savings facil
ities in the home are outlined as fol
lows:
“1. Habit of saving first some part
of income for future neccld and of
spending wisely for present needs.
“2. Home betterment .fund, to se
cure, for example, running water in
the house.
“3. Savings plan for every boy and
girl.
“4. Savings fund in government se
curities for every family.
“5. Keeping of accounts to pro
mote wise spending and to increase
savings.
“6. Safe Investment of savings
(Nos. 2, 3, 4) in government securi
ties until money Is needed; War Sav
ings Str^ips as a desirable in'VeSt-
ment.”
Government officials at* Washing
ton are watching with no little inter
est the growth of a series of societies
springing up all over the tJnited
States. They have already attained a
membership that reaches well up into
Uie millions.
Treasury department Officials are
particulafrly interested in this move
ment, and It is fostered by that de
partment. As soon as a society is
formed the names of the president,
secretary amd each individual mem
ber are placed in the treasury depart
ment archives. «
These socletiee are War Savings
Societies, and the motive of each so
ciety is Thrift. The government, in
favoring- these organisations, has not
only in view the rf:pleaiSh:rg of the
United States treasury through the
sale cf Thrift and War SiV’ngs
Stamps, but the big idea is to cause
the
EASY TO SAVE
By the same token that the best way
to have anything is do it yourself, the
best way to get ahead in the world
is save regularly and invest wieely.
Your children may be buying Thrift
Stamps but the nickels and dimes and
quarters they are able to save won’t
buy a new automobile or a home or a
Cultivator. The money to do that will
not be saved unless you save it.
It's easy enough to save If yov do
it the W. S. S. way.’ Quarters planted
in Thrift Stamps grow into War Sav
ings Stamps and the interest make*
them grow like rain does a summer
flower. Save for ^at happy opportu
nity. If you’re not in a War Savings
Society—get In one. Be with th*
crowd.
them better is to trust the whole
people—Van Dyke.
A PRATER
Father of light, illuminate our
minds. Lead us unto ever clearer
truth. May knowledge grow from
more to more. May .we bow before
the light we have that we may be
v/orthy o more.. May we walk in the
light that we may become children of
light.
Holy Spirit teach us how to be
■worthy citizens. May we have exalt
ed aims. May we seek the common
veal. May we lose our own selves
in others. May we rejoice with them
that do rejoice and weep with them
that weep, for Jesu’s saks, Amen.

The government is not seeking to
divert capital from legitimate com-
‘merelal enterprises. It does not want
to tie jip vast snms. It Is the person
who has never saved systematically
«hat H is the moet anxious to reach.
TMi person can put aside the small
amounts that he has been accustomed
to spend, and this, drawing four per
••st «oo3ipoui>d hitcreet, will in an iBr
credibly short time grow into a large
enough sum to make the first 'pay
ment on a home, or to provide a sum
with which one may mUke a perma
nent investment.^
