A modern Midas of Chicago, who ted accumulated $300,000 by never spending anything, recently was declared incapable of handling his af- < _ fairs. He became incapable not be- ' c&use he amassed $300,000 bat because 1 of the way he accumulated it. He estranged his family, went to bed with the chickens to avoid spending money : on lights and lired on $55 a year. Then he ran afoul of the puzzling in- 1 come tax law and now his children are ^ to handle his beloved savings. This modern Midas was not a thrifty man. < He was a miser. True thrift enhances i and increases the wealth of the world. Wnardinfi' monftv benefits neither the miser nor his fellows. Wise spending is as essential as wise, saving, and wise investment is as important as either; wise spending for the comforts . and pleasures of life as well as the necessities makes for the thriftiest life and stimulates production. Wise investment makes possible the crea tion of new wealth. The miser saves but spends nothing. He secures only the meager satisfaction of watching his pile of money grow. The wise exponent of thrift t ?nd sound investment has th* comforts -anti pleasures of life and saves at the same time. The foolish man ;ipends his money for what he neither -needs nor Teally wants; does not at- : lain the comforts and lasting pleasures of life and saves nothing. ? * ?* ?? .II TQe moaern miB?r ull vuiuagu uau j spent wisely lie would hay>e had years | <sf comfort and happiness Instead of ? y*ars ot squalor and ^ant. If he had ?ftve? wisely he would hare had the lone and respect of his family and as^ sociates. if he had invested wisely he would hare been competent to han-dle his own affairs. "Waste not?want not** it still the -modern axiom of thrift but "want not" must not be interpreted 'to mean not wanting the things that make life i worth the living. Don't be a modern t Midas.

Not only are the same principles held in common, j but ideas and material are interchang- 1 ori anr! emDloved to further the par ticular lines of each department's work. In the Treasury Department the ; Savings Division is endeavoring to 1 bring home the value of sensible economy as a principle of living; to interpret thrift, not as miserliness, but as the wise management of one's affairs, taking heed of present and future needs and steadily saving for worthwhile purchases, to .take advant- j age of an opportunity or against a 1 rainy day. The Savings Division offers the Thrift Stamps and War Savings Stamps a practical inducement to acquring the power of & financial reserve. j Realizing that saving is greatly stimulated by having a definite object in view, the Department of Labor has launched an OWN YOUR HOME movement. ' ! The Department of Commerce, In = conjunction with the Council of Na-* tkraal Defense, is engaged in a BtJY, NOW, BUT ONLY WHAT YOU j NEED, campaign. 1 The Department of Agriculture has ! * * 1 ?"
