Those, great dividend days bring American bankers new opportunities and also responsibilities. Ho.w enn new thrift habits be linked to thrift institutions? How can this money the product of thrift, be mobilized for further work? t Already . the bankers are wprking with the Treasury Department to contirne thrift habits. For people who save money there is a wide range 01 thrift institutions thai will ' take charge of funds, put them to work safely, and return good earnings, as :ho government plans to borrow by" ; general education of thrift ,in every kind,. so the banks and thrift institu- . tions can aid the government by en couraging general thrift and building bigger business themselves. One of the first steps to be taken by jankers is that of spreading informa tion about banks, life insurance, build up; and loan associations, federal farm loans, and all other thrift institutions. ? The bent way to meet Tincle Sam's '?ornowinfe needs is to promote thrift < n the broadest possible lines. Every dollar deposited in a savings bank becomes available for national finance. Every life insurance policy sold is equivalent to an indirect loan, to the government. Every obligation assumed by thrifty people such as a building mortgage is a stimulus to production and saving, and therefore, i as much a national service as the di rect purchase of government securi ties. In placing these matters clearly before everybody in his community the banker will live up to his opportu nities and his responsibilities in the new thrift movement.

TELLS HOW SHE BUYS WAR SAVINGS STAMPS Woman Tells How by Intelligent Sav ings Plan She Is Able to Accumu late Money Which Was Formerly Wasted. "Save while tlie motley is warm" is J the motto of a woman -who has estab l lished a reputation both for herself J and her family by the number of War* I Savings Stamps she bought without i apparently stinting in the 'must. Here is her system. "The only way to save is to save. When I ha vo actually saved a quarter I put it into a Thrift Stamp without delay. If I save that quarter on one i thing and then spend it carelessly for ? something elsi?. I have not saved any! j real money. "For example the other day I went j down town expecting to pay. $1^ fori a pair of special ahoes To my sur- 1 prise, I found there wa.s a s.We that j day. and pot the very pair of shoes I wanted for $7.75.

The origin of the term "Lapp" Is ob scure, according to "Through Lupiund with .Skis and Helndeer," by Frank Hedges ? Butler. The Swedish histori an, Johannes Magnus, writing in the sixteenth century, called the land Lap pin. following Saxo Ornnnnuticus. the twelfth century Danish chronicler. Other writers called it by the Latin ized name Lapponia. In the seven teenth century the region was known in England as Lapland, in Sweden as Lapimirkia, mark being swedish for land; in Denmark and Norway as Lup Ir-ndia or Flndmarkia. Several ingenious etymologies have been suggested, both in ancient and modern times. Some derive the name from the Swedish Lapp,, rags, "from their (the Laplanders) coming into Swedeland every year with .rags lapt about them" ojhers from the Swedish laepa, to run or leap, from their skill in sliding swiftly over the frozen snow by means of skis. Sheffer, the Swedish professor whose "Lapponia" (1073) was trans lated into English and published in Oxford in 1074, wrote of the "art they have by which with crooked pieces of wood under their feet like a bow they hunt wild beasts and glide along the ground, not taking up one foot after another as in common running but car rying themselves steady upon the froz en mow, they move forward, stooping a little." Old historians often cnlled Lapland "Scrldflnnla," derived from "skrlda," which in Danish and Swed ish means to slide. Coming next week at the Majewtic, iylsje Ferguson in "Tyes <?f t ht* Soul".
