Educational Director Herron Ad- dresses School Teachers Schuyler F. Herron, educational di- rector savings division, First Federal Reserve district, and former superin- tendent . of chools in Winchester, M achusett was in New Britain today to address mectings of teach- ers and pupils of the Normal school, the Prevocational school, the High school and Grammar schools. “Mak- ing the World Over,” was the sub- ject of Mr. Herron’s address. Conditions Not Improved. “Amid the strain of the world war,” he said, “we thought that when the fighting should be ended and the victory won we would be able to re- sume normal living, not so much dif- ferent from what it was when Ger- many started out to conquer the world and therefore after the re- joicing on November 11th, 1918, we looked for definite changes in eco- nomic conditions which would render easier for all of us.

The months have passed; conditions have grown steadily worse. We now hear intimations that the cost of living will be still higher. It is therefore fitting that we examine conditions in order that having as- certained the facts we may oonsider what can be done. As teachers, ac- tual or prospective it is especially important that this be done since we owe it to the next generation to give new or special training, if the boys and girls now in school, who will be its citizens, are to face & world in which efficient and heppy living will be more difficult than the one which we have heretofore known. World Vastly Changed. “As we consider the various as- pects of the world war in their re- lation to our well being, we must conclude- that this is a new world, that it must be made over or else that we must study how we can adapt ourselves to meet the problems of life. We find that In the main we can dismiss from our minds the idea that high prices are due to profiteers or anybody else that can be speedily or easily punished or rem- edied. There may be some slight benefits that wise legislation can pro- duce but on the whole the situation is that for four years the world wast- ed as it never wasted before and that the effects of this waste will be a burden upon our children’s children. “Let us look at some of the things that have happened. During four vears over fifty milllon men were under arms and enaged in the busi- ness of destruction. They destroyed deliberately, continuously, thorough- ly. In saying this we may remember that the waste of the war includes not merely the destruction of the country in which the fighting oc- curred, the houses, the trees, the mines, the land, but also the muni- tions used, the clothing and food of the soldiers, the labor of men and women diverted from productive employment, almost in short the total energy of these fifty odd million sol- diers and of the three hundred mil- lion men and women who were en- gaged in furnishing them with sup- plies. The Meaning of Thrift. “Thrift is essential for the well- being and happiness of the individ- ual, for the prosperity of the state, and for the stability of organized government. Tt includes six elements: “A. Efficient Production: Men ought to work. They ought to work at the occupation for which they are best fitted and under conditions that will enable them to be thorough- ly efficient. By their work they should earn enough to provide ade- quate savings and to maintain proper standards of living including recrea- tion. “B. Planned Fxpenditure. In or- der to obtain the greatest benefit from the results of efficient produc- tion, saving and expenditure should be planned, that is, a budget should be made. Saving and spending would thus be arranged with full consideration of present and future needs and of the reasonable pleas- ures essential to contentment and successful living. “C. Definite Saving Before Sper ing: In any event provi R be made for definite and ing before spending, since this way in which saving can be made e P e T T Y INCORPORATED HARTFORD Spring Suit Fashions at Their Best Extensive Displays of All That is Correct.

Sav- ing before spending established the habit of saving, makes it a satisfac- tion instead of an act of self-denial, enables one to realize ‘joy of lfe,’ and strengthens the mental and moral character. “D. Judicious Buying and Careful Use. Men may choose, as a ,'rule, what they will buy and how they will use their belongings. They should ‘get their money’s worth’ in both re- spects. They should know market prices and should buy the things that, meeting a standard of fitness, durability, and beauty, are most rea- sonable in price and should obtain from these things the maximum of use. Thus foresight, judgment and power will be developed in the indi- vidual, and a surplus will be accu- mulated. “E. Wise Giving: ‘No man liveth unto himself. Doing things for others in proportion to one’s ability is essential to complete individual happiness, to the development of character and tp social progress. The thrifty can be really generous from their own means, and only those who budget income, save regularly, buy judiciously, use carefully and in- vest safely are likely to give wisely. The spendthrift may often be a cheerful giver, but he is seldom a wise one. “F. Sound Investment: The reg- ular savings before spending and the occasional savings after providing for needs and reasonable pleasures should be invested where they will be safe and fairly prafitable in co-oper- ative banks, buildings and loan as- sociations, savings banks, government securities, war savings stamps and certificates, and other investments recommended by bankers known to have sound judgment. *“Of the foregoing particular em-~ phasis may well be placed on saving before spending and on .investments. For the latter the advantages of the co-operative banks or Building and Loan associations so commonly found, savings banks and savings de- partments should be utilized for the schools savings plans essential in any school system. The procedure will necessarily vary but every child should be made to feel that as a part of his education the habit of regular saving is essential to his present and future happiness. Furtber the Thrift Stamps and War Savings Stamps now a permanent policy of the treas- ury department should be used as a laboratory exercise in teaching sav- ing, interest earning and investment. We should remember, too, that the War Savings Stamps are an absolute safe and reasonably profitable invest- ment, automatically increasing in value month by month, available as liguid securities in emergencies, easy and conventent, secure against loss if Tegistered, and certain to be re- deemed in a short five years, and that their purchase teaches sound financial habits, inculcates patriot- ism, vitalizes the idea of citizenship and stabilizes our governmental in- stitutions. Bvery American home should have some government secur- ities. We shall assure this for the next generation if we see that every pupil has some War Savings Stamps. “In this connection too pupils may L well be given two messages to s home to their parents: first, the sirability of War Savings Certifig as investments, and second, the nomic wisdom of not selling Lii and Victory Loan bonds. “The War Savings Certificates a face value at maturity of $100 $1,000 may be purchased in Jan| for $82.40 and $824 - respectil They increase in value every md can be cashed after two months little delay, are available for wu: emergencies and yield a reasoy compound interest return. “Liberty and Victory Loan b should be kept because their sa bad busmess judgment and a 4 of. the co-operation which we sH all share in meeting present nomic problems. If kept they certainly be paid at par when mature and meanwhile they ar] sound investment.” For Colds, Grip or Influenza and as a Preventive, take LAXA" BROMO QUININE Tablets. for E. W.
