That money, in some instances at least, will be used, now or later on, to promote the progress of our city; in any event, it will | mean the circulation of a larger sum here, and the greater the circulation the larger | the number of people who will be benefited. | Money itself means little; it purchases neither contentment nor happiness; in some cases it engenders discontent; but the right ful usé of money is promotive of the gen eral well being. And The Citizen is confi- | dent that som@ of the Key Westers who are “cleaning up” will use their money judi- | ciously in helping their community while | | helping themselves. But that money that falls into miserly | hands keeps its possessor in a feverish | state of perturbation and dees not help the | community in which he lives one whit. Conversely, Tne Citizen knows of sev- | eral Key Westers whose money is a driving forca in promoting the interests of Key West. Regarding two or three of those men, | The Citizen has heard this question pro- pounded, time and again, ‘What do they | want with more money?” Well, they don’t want any more other ; than to keep their businesses thriving and | thereby build up weekly or semi-monthly payrolls that provide livelihoods for many Key Westers. In other words, those men are not concerned in hoarding — they consider they want more | work, to help.themselves and their city. | On the other side of the picture, The curse to them. Of what good is their mone when they deprive themselves of the neces- | sities of life so that they may add more | money to their miserly pile? So don’t begrudge any man for the | money he earns and, what is of far greater ee nqueror. It is the inevitable hunger of “1 | vat, unrelieved by the consciousness of . heroic and valorous fight for liberty. years to come the French people will have n opportunity . to become the | triends of liberty and democracy but they | will owe their freedom, gence of their leaders or the courage of not to the intell- | their men but to the victory that will be| gained by other free automatically free France.

These are made of essential WAR METALS —nickle, copper and chromium. DON’T cook on high heat; start with high and cook on low. DON’T use the same heating element all of the time. Rotate the use of the ele- ments. DON’T use all of the heating elements for preparing a meal. Use your oven or Thrift Cooker to prepare a com- plete meal. DON’T keep the oven door closed after using. Leave it open, as this pre- vents rusting. DON’T clean range while hot, as cool water will cause the porcelain to crack. Parts for your range are hard to get, so take care of what you have.
