SCARR, New York’s veteran weath- er man, 117 days before June 17th was called on ‘the tele- phone by a girl's timid voice and asked if June 17th would be fair. He immediately surmised that date was the girl's wedding day, which she confessed and being a reg- ular fellow he said: 6WOU will always remember June 17th as the X brightest day of your life.” though it was im- possible for him to forecast so far in advance. Asked why he did so, he explained: “Our greatest enjoyment in life usually comes in anticipation.” . SCARR proved himself not only very human, but a bit of a philosopher—Anticipation is a big part of human happiness. If you consistently save a part of your income you can enjoy over a long period of time the happy anticipation of attaining some worth- while desire. If you fritter your income away the pleasure is momentary. START a Savings Account tomorrow in this Savings Bank, which pays 5% interest, compounded semi- annually.
