THE WAYS
OF THRIFT
Copyrighted. 1914. American Society
for Thrift
‘THRIFT IS WISE EXPENDITURE.”
“Many people fall to realize that
money merely represents tools with
which to do work. \ man's farm is
worth nothing to him unless he tills
it. If he finds that SIOO worth of fer
tilizer elves S2OO more In crops, that
SIOO earns 1000 per cent per annum.
If a special sprlns on his wagon would
enable him to carry his eggs to mar
ket with less breakage, the spending
of a few dollars nav give him a re
turn of several thousand per cent per
annum ”
To forward this kind of thrift, en
abling people with limited means and
workers on small Incomes to borrow
small amounts on reasonable terms,
also aiding members in Investing and
saving, the Industrial Credit Union, a
co-operation success, was organized
in Boston. This association believes
that borrowing is not st aU disgrace
ful but Justifiable under the right
conditions. The following illustrations
are given
"A woman who had a doctor’s bill
of over SBO. by borrowing S4O and
settling at once got a discount on the
original bill of over S4O The total In
terest on her loan from the Industrial
Credit Union will he $2.20, so her
gain w ill he at least $37.80.
“Another woman who borrowed $35
to complete payment on a piano which
she had been buying on theinstallment
plan , got a discount of S2O by making
the payment before a certain date.
The total Interest on her loan was
$1.42, so she will have saved $18.65.”
I«oan* are made only to members of
the Industrial Credit Union and for
purposes which promise to result in a
saving or a profit to the borrower.
Loan* of ver> small amounts may be
made are repax able in installments if
desired. Membership is restricted to
people of honesty and Industry. Char*
fceter and Industry are important
considerations and a loan mav some
times be made to a member with only
the security of one or more other
mem bars as guarantors Prompt pax *
mem of obligations is a fundamental
requirement The association is with
in the reach of everybody and co
i potation is its keynote.
“A man had a loan of SSO so that he
could buy furniture for cash instead
of on the Installment plan, to furnish
an extra room for lodgers in his sea
side home. The net gain to him
through buying the furniture for cash
will he more than double the Interest
he paxs and he has made enough
through his lodgers to pay back the
loan with a considerable margin.
Some of the loans were to make set
tlements with money lenders In one
case the man had been paying an av
erage interest of 9 per cent a month
to the money lenders, so he made a
decided gain by paying the Credit
Union only one per cent a month In
another case a settlement was made
with the money tenders which saved a
borrower a quarter of his debt while
he will make a total payment to the
Credit Union of only a little over 8
per cent on his !«mn of SSO. Aside
from dollars and cents, through twin*

him farther and farther down, this

THE VEGETABLE BATTLE.
(By Virginia Yale.
Once upon a time there was a very
nice garden hack of a nice house. This
garden was nicely planned and had
rows and rows of lettuce and beets
and turnips and radishes and lucious
berries of all kinds.
For a long time after the garden
xx hh planted there was apparently
nothing in it but black dirt with marks
to show John, the gardner. Just where
he had planted the seeds for the dif
lerent vegetables.
One night when It was rainy, what
do you think? The vegetables began
to grow very fast and came right up
through the ground. They tried to
grow as fast as possible for you know'
It is considered a great honor to he
the first vegetable to show above the
dirt and usually the one that gets
ahead of the others Is considered the
‘“boss’ of the garden for the whole
summer.
The next morning when all the veg
etables were above the ground there
xx as a great argument between the
beets and the turnips as to which
came up first and pretty soon the two
lows of vegetables facing each other
like ranks of soldiers were fighting
fiercely for the honor of being **bosa.”
John, the gardner, heard the row
ami came out of the barn to find the
♦ arth all torn up where the beets and
turnips xx ere so that he had to work
for hours to get his garden looking
good again.
As a punishment he refused to let
either the beets or the turnips be
"boss'* but gave the honor to the beau
tiful green lettuce which was such a
good “boss” that, before the summer
xx as over, all the vegetables voted to
give the lettuce a new title that of
"Queen.”
