THIS IS THRIFT WEEK IN NATION __ A Announcement from the Nation-' al Thrift committee of National; Thrift week (January 17 to 23) bring to mind the fact that there - is no topic, either economic or sc- j cial, that transcends in importance the question of how the personal i incomes of people shall be used. This National Thrift movement, fostered by the V. M. C. A. and en dorsed by 47 of the leading edu cational, religious, social and in dustrial organizations of the coun try, has grown out of the convic tion of recognized leaders that the American people ought to be given some practical help i ntheir efforts to master monfcy matters. The pro gram has swept across the nation with amazing results. Those most interested in the country’s welfare have been the best workers. One reason for the success of Na tional Thrift week is that +he en deavor has been founded upon an easily understood ideal composed of the following ten points; 1. —Work and earn. 2. —Mnke a budget. 3. —Record expenditures. 4. —Flave a bank account. 5. —Carry life insurance. 6. —Own your home. 7. —Make a will. 8. —Invest in safe securities. 9. —pay bills promptly. 10. —Share with others. The best place to put the liquor you get from the bootlegger is in the radiator. mlWiDS i HALF PRICE SALE SWEATERS I i A assortment of all j woo!
