Hinghamton, Did you ever read Samuel Smiles? He wrote about thrift. Tried to show the people in England how to be intelligently economical in their personal and domestic expenditures. Benjamin Franklin struck the same chord in America. Both warned the people against the dan- gers of debt, credit and extravagance. Their whole- some, old-fashioned counsel was expressed in bright maxims and pithy proverbs, the marrow of which was that all people should be frugal. King Solomon gave the same advice. No man questions the wisdom contained in the utterances of the Hebrew King, His words were ac- cepted. No motive suggesting personal gain could be traced to them. _ moat Smiles and Franklin died with honors because much of their life-work had been an effort to teach men and women how to be happy by saving.
