the socks In her work basket.
"I Just can’t do all of It,” said Julia,
with tears In her eyas; ‘TU get a
scolding anyway, so 1 guess I won’t
do any of the work; I’ll go Into the
garden aud look at the flowers.”
Julia took off her long gingham
apron end went Into the gurden. .She
dearly loved flowers, and while Mrs.
Jones had a large garden Julia had
never hud a chance to look at the
flowers all she wanted to.
Jillla had lived with Farmer Jones
ami his wife a year; her mother was
dead and her father, who was a sailor,
had not been heard from tn two years
and, us there was no orphan asylum
In the town where she lived, a home
was found for her with the Jorus
family.
She sang as she walked among tho

she thought of her work, aud she won.

Julia.

Th* broom cams running from be

brushed the floor. The dust pan and
the brush Jumped from their nook by
the chimney and took up the dust and
put It iq the stove, and the kitchen
looked as sygek and span as though
Julia had done It herself.
Then she felt herself gliding up the
Stairs to (he bedroom without her Iset

mattresses shaking themselves Just as
Mrs. Jones had taught her to do, aud

"There are fairies, after all." said
Julia "I can go bnck to the garden

The man dropped his bundle and
took her In his arms. "My poor llttlq

hi:; sunburned face.
Julia took her father Into the house,
and though ghe did not find the work
done as she had dreamed It was, she
had no fear of s scolding when Mrs.
Jones returned, for her father had
come home, and she was going to live
with him.
He told her how the ship he called
on had been wrecked and that after
he was rescued he was sick for a long
time, and had only Just now been able
to reach his native land.

THE WAYS OF THRIFT
(Copyrighted, 1914, American Society
for Thrift.)
SCHOOL THRIFT HARVEBTS.
School garden harvests are growing
In number, it was seen this autumn.
A procession of children carrying
takes, spades and baskets marched to
ward a public park in Chicago where
they had labored all summer in their
4x4 gardens for the general harvesting
ceremonies. Here is an interesting
cute:
Early in the spring many small lots
in Dvorak Fark were apportioned
among seventy children over ten years
ola, who promised to "pet' a garden
on four different days each week. The
children have raised vegetables and
Powers. They have had beets to take
home to their mothers almost every
picking day, which Is Friday. They
have had four crops of radishes, two
clops of lettuce, and the Swlsa chard
has qever given out during the entire
season and Is still abundant. The pep
per grass lias been splendid when mix
ed with hread and butter, the children
say. The children have been able to
cut the vegetable bills in their house
bolus and the mothers look forward
to “picking day” almost as eagerly as
the children.
Thomas W. Churchill, president of
the board of education of New York
City, wrote comprehensively on thrift
school work to Simon W. Straus,
president of the American Society for
Thrift, as follows:
"The schools of this city, both
through their organization and in tha
content of their Instruction, inculcate
lessons of thrift among the children,
although such lesson# necessarily are
carried pn (n the face of a great deal
of actual extravagance in living on
the part of the population nt large.
The ways tn which these habits have
been inculcated may he summarized
“Bale ot Colton” Movement Aids
Auto Dealers ot South
Gives Profits to Cotton Grower Instead of Middle man.
Country-wide Interest In the “buy
a-bala-of cotton” movement launched
by southern business men In an effort
to move thehuge cotton crop of the
south. Is bound to react In favor of
automobile sales according to J. H.
Gordon, Atlanta representative for
Dodge Brothers, who has Just arrived
in Detroit.
"AVlth cotton prices lower than at
any time during the past twelve years
It is necessary that whatever (mail
as follows:
“The type of Instruction: Almost
all of our girls are taught to cook, and
the boys to work In a shop, so that
they will not be victims of an idea
lligt work Itself is drudgery. This in
struction is farther supplemented by a
considerable amount of actual teach
ing in the trades in certain schools
for boys and girls. These trades in
clude practically all of the leading oc
cupations.
"We fiave a very extensive scheme
of instruction for wage earners by
Vhi' li they may become more efficient
yiwkmen, and in that way learn to in
crease the value of their own services.
“A strong point Is made In all the
schools of neatness and cleanliness in
dress as well as in simplicity. Jewelry,
ornaments, extravagant methods of
personal adornment are severely dis
couraged.
“Savings Banks: The extension of
schcol banks' Is being constantly en
couraged. At present many of our
schools conduct savings banks for pu
pils, and a special committee has been
appointed by the board of education to
report upon the organization of these
banks and the rules governing them
"Even - attempt is mad® for sim
plicity In school celebrations, especial
ly in the matter of dress. In a cir
cular letter legued by the city super
intendent, he requested the principals
to advise teachers and pupils that in
preparing ffcr graduation exercises,
the pupils should appear neatly, but
as Inexpensively clothed as possible.
As an example- 009 of largest Jilgh
schools graduated last year a class us
glris who made their own graduation
dresses at a cost of not mare than
apiece."
ThrUt ha* more active this
summer than last. What may not be
expected from the children pent fa 11 .
profits are to bp made, should accrue
direct to the planter," says Mr. Gor
don. "his Is the direct object of the
"buy a bale of cotton' idea which is
being backed with such energy by
business interests in general and the
automobile industry In particular.
THi* Year’s Crop.
"The south this year has a cotton
crop of some 16.000.000 bales to dis
ppse of and faces the prospect of a
completely closed European market,
for months to come. Europe annually
takes two-thirds of America's cotton
auppy. but the war has effectually
stopped foreign exporta The differ
ence this makes to the ootton grow
er is clearly shown by a comparison
of prices for this year and last. In
191 S, plamtera were receiving about
14 1-! cents per pound as against S
6-S cents per pound quoted by At
lanta buyers on the day I left that
city.
'*To relieve the situation, the news
papers and business men In tbe south
ern states have been boosting the sale
of cotton to private Individuals and
firms, at the rate of 10 cents par
pound. This price Is paid direct to
the producer, and nets him 050 per
bale, thus eliminating the cotton bro
kers and mill buyer's proflf on tbe
transaction. Thousands of planters In
the south found themsetves well
stocked with cotton at the beginning
of the European war. hi} l without a
dollar for Immediate necessities. It
was to relieve this situation that the
private sale of cotton was encourag
ed end Is bslng carried forward so
successfully.
Prompt Response.
"Xo class of business man have re*

Kv ery salesroom tup» its halo or bales
of cotton in the window, and many
dealers are taking cotton In part pay
ment for cars. In addition, a great
majority of motor car manufacturer*
are buying great quantities direct,
and this all serves to strengthen tba
."landing of the automobile men with
their laraeet class of purchasers tbe
men who grow the cotton.
"If the present low price of cotton

the planters a most valuable lesson in
economics. Heretofore, the ownere pf

If more of them had set aside a small
part of their property for raising cat

wait for the raise in cotton pricejs,
which is bound to come sooner or la

Despite the present trend of condi
tions in the South, Mr. Gordon Btates
that automobile dealers are preparing
for a big selling season, many having
increased their orders for 1915 cars.
He reports all territory assigned to
him closed up on the sales rights for
the new car w-hich Oodege Bros, will
bring out this fall.
HEADS UP—NOT HANDS UP.
A Good Slogan for All of Us.
At a time such as the present
some people are wiljing to throw
up their hands and to acknowl
edge that things are in a terrible
condition and that everything Is
going rapidly to . the bow-wows.
On the contrary, we are "chuck
full” of optimism. We believe In
OIIRSELA'ES: we believe in
YOU, and we believe In YOUR
ABILITY to meet the present sit
uation AS MEN. \A r e belieye in
the ASSETS and the INTEGRI
TY of the South. We believe in
the BUY-A-BALE MOVEMENT
and have bought ours, both as a
cotppany and as individuals, and
at 10 cents per pound. We have
also succeeded in interesting a
number of our Northern friends
and business associates in mak
ing similar purchases.
To us every day looks brighter
than the one just past. We are
living in the best country on
earth, at peace with all the world,
and in a time all of us have
more of the comforts and luxu
ries of life than we have ever
enjoyed before. Remember,
