SOME FACTS AND SOME FIGURES.
Figures and facts for young people to think
about and ponder who wish to amount to some
hing from a financial point in this world. There
are many who work hard but are not careful
how they spend, and spend entirely too much
for the non-essentials of life.
We all know there are 365 daysin a year.
There are many who are making from SI.OO to
$3.00 per day, and find it hard to meet their no
cessary expenses. The reason is because they
are not careful how they spend, and are spend
ing for non-ssentials. Rome was not built in a
day. Fortunes are not made or spent in a day.
Below are some figures for your serious consid
oration and thought. Suppose you save on an av
erage of 50c a day for 365 days, will be $182.-
150. You put that at interest at the legal rate of
18 per cent for 25 years and see what an estate
you will have.

The second column in the above is the inter
est calculated for one year on Ist column
$13,338.59 at 8 per cent $1067.08. This would
be quite a nice income as a sinking fund to live
on alter you pass the 45 or 50 mile post. It may
not be within the province of all to save the
50c per day average but some can. Others can
save only half that amount, $6,669.29. Yet oth
ers can save 10c per day 2.637.72. Still others
and this should include all, 5c per day 1318.86
So you see there is no good reason why any one
should make an absolute failure.
I have made this deduction, hoping at least
to get some to think soberly and start on the
road to success.
The above figures may not be absolutely cor
rect, but they are approximately so.
THOMAS J. PIRKLE.
Many people are neglecting the large oppor
tunities that come to those who keep their old
mouths shut.
A credit agency reported in regard to a cer
tain applicant for a loan, that his assets con
sisted of eight children and a Ford. It could be
said in his behalf that he had every incentive
to save money.
No wonder our wives refyse to stay in the
kitchen where they belong, when the other day
they put in a woman to preside over the Nation
al House of Representatives.
America is the land sought by the oppressed
of all nations, particularly by those who want
a place where they will never have to defend
the country or pay taxes.
Fewer cases of sudden and distressing illness
are expected after the anti-medical beer bill
passes.
Some people who are selling their liberty
bonds at 85 because they think they are going
lower, will probably buy more some day be
cause they believe they will rise.
Some of these people who step on the gas in
crowded streets should be invited to step into
the jail.
The I. W. W.ites are reported not distributing
much literature this year. Perhaps they discov
ered the above activity is work.
The Congressmen deny that they are idle, as
most of them have introduced bills calling for
the expenditure of more money.
Many men who always were too busy to help
in the kitchen work, have found it necessary to
spend much time therein since the home-brew
business began.
The people who regard school teachers as
faded out old maids, are informed that the
principal trouble with education now is that the

less alarm since their best batsman was struck
out by the American college p'itchers.
Fly girls in the business offices said to attract
too much attention from the young men help,
but anyway the boys have an incentive for be
ing present at the office every day.
HAW CREEK.
We will start with a verse of
scripture, Luke 16:16. The law
and the prophets were until
John. Since that tihe the king
dom of God is preached and ev
ery man presses into it. I want
us to think on this verse closely
The revival meeting season
is here, Haw Creek being the
first to start that we know of.
It is to begin next Sunday and
we hope that it will be one of
the best meetings that has ever
been held at this place. We do
not know who will help the pas
tor do the preaching, but there
will be somebody, so lets all be
ready to do our part in the ser
vices, and if we will all do our
part somebody that is in their
sins will press into the kingdom
of God through repentance &
faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Now lets all do our part in the
service and see who will be sav
ed in this meeting.
J. W. Thomas was called to
his home from Antioch last Sun
day morning and did not get to
fill his appointment at 11, nor

the serious illnes of one of his
babies.
Mrs. Harriet Martin is still
very sick, but we hope for her
a speedy recovery.
We hear that Rev. J. I. Hol
brook is to be with Rev. Wallis
at Pleasant View. That will be
a good team for they are both
good preachers, and we hope
to be able to hear them soon.
The good old Hightower As
sociation is to meet soon. We
hope that it will be as harmo
nious this time as it was last
year, but of course it will not
be at Oak Grove this time. I
wonder who will be moderator
this time. Some good man, of
course.
It seems that the Sunday
schools are increasing by the
way the Sunday school commit
tee writes. They can’t near sup
ply the demand for hooks this

see so many interested in the
study of God’s word.
