From the small folks leeraing to 1
ipell "oat" in the primary grades up
to the big boys and girls who take 1
Latin and algebra, South Carolina c
school children have been adding a I
oew study to their list; and they lure
befn sinning honors la tt Their saw
wStk is the study of ths subject of
thrift, taught in connection with ths
"Text Books Of Thrift" which are >

v Bui South Carolina boya and firle
in thair patriotic work and in learn,
lng how to save and cat ahead are go- {
log the teaching of thrift one better.,
Already in the schools of the Pal- J
in otto State many sayings societies
and thrift clubs have been organized,
and the children not only in South
Carolina but all over the district are
busy earning money and buying use.,
fur things with it or Investing it in
Thrift Stamps and War Savings
Stamps. Money put in War Savings
Stamps bears interest at the rate of
4 per cent, compounded quarterly, j
and grows rapidly.
Laid Money Aside.
A lad in one of the schools in thlfl
district has laid the foundation of a
prosperous career by plowing and by .
selling vegetables. When all the
work was done he counted up the
V -V J ?- 1 a * ?
uiuuv/ uc uau |iut in uaim aim iuuiiu
that it amounted to twenty-five dol?;
lara. Many of the world's richost men
began life on leas than twenty-five
dollars. But they saved their money
ragularly nad invested H wisely, thua
assuring success.
The teacher In one of the S-A
grades has reported that one of her
pupils has earned no less than twenty
dollars by helping around the house,
while members of a savings society
that flourishes in a 1-A grade have made
about twenty-five dollars doing
such odd jobs as feeding tho chickens,
tying tobacco and chopping grass.
Several boys who are members of
school saving societies which are
particularly active have bought
etothes with money earned In similar
ways. One little fellow did so well r
helping his father that he was poid ;
ten dollars. As he received the ,
money he bought Thrift Stamps showi
ing that he already knew how to save
* (
and invest what he made. ^
Help Them Save.
Popular among these small Investors
are the Penny and Nickle Savings
Books issued by Uncle Sam to all
school pupils desiring them. In the
days when, to many tots, the price ;
of even a Thrift Stamp may be too j
huge to he paid all at ouce, and wb^u j
vino juoi niuAi uuj (.in ot:elisionui annay
sucker or a cent-npiece bite of
candy, lots of youngesters find it wiaa
to save a penny or a nicklo at a time.
The coin is deposited with the teacher
for safe keeping, and she stamps
the savings card to show how much
the child has put in bin account.
When the total is large enough, it
. goes into the purchase of a Thrilt
1.1 Stamp. s
I Piling up money of your own is a
great game, played in this fashion, *
J and a game that is daily growing in t
j L favor in South Carolina schools. .

< PILE UP YOUR DOLLARS SO THAT
NO ONE CAN KNOCK
THEM DOWN.
Many a tired lad has slipped his
coM on when the whistle blow and
i said derisively: "Another day, another
dollar. A million days, a millionaire." .
He has said a mouthful in bitter Jest
and without knowing It. For the dollars
do pile up if the stack is not
knocked over.
Some financial sharpshooter ie always
gunning for your dollars. They
an pick them off at a mile like An
nie Oakley cracking clay pipes tn a
hooting gallery. Rut If you put soma
of your dollars under cover before
any one can draw a bead on them,
you leave a slim' score for the profiteer
and the grafter.
The safest protection from those
sharpshooters is War Savings Stamps
bought etery pay-day. If you give
them your whole roll to shoot at they will
hit H for a perfect score. Make
,them waste a little ammunition.
War 'Savings Stamps are absolutely
, safe. They pay a high rate of interest
and you can get your money IN ^
FULL when you need it. When they
one up, nobody can knock the atack r
oyer. C

IAYS RAILROADS WILL
NEED $3,000,000,000.
A dispatch from St. Paul, Mlnncota,
received today, quotes Howard
Clliot, President of the Northern Pnific
Railroad, as saying that $3,000,00,000
must Be spent by the counry's
railroads "within the next few
'ears" to provide necessary passenger
.ml freight facilities. The statement
'ends in part as follows:
"Dififcult and serious as is the
light of the railroads, and of .the
iwners of $20,000,000,000 worth of
iroperty, iti s not more serious than
