A True Story
When I was a younjg man working
for the rail l-oari <mv -Oheeter, ?S?~G?i-;
theix> was a jeweler there named
Brandt He had come from Germany
with little means, had-buHt up a fine
business and was known as wealthy.
One day I asked .trim if Ihe could give
;ne the secret of his. success. He
?aid "why certainly my boy, it is
easy?all you havo to do is save half
of what you make."
While I have never been able to
follow that advice in fyM and pay living?
expenses out of a small salary,
I imve never forgotten tihe ad vice and
have always itiriod to save something
out of what I made.
Folks, that is tfhe big trouble of
these times. There is little effort
made to save but the idea seems to
be, spend all you make 01 even more
if you can.
A few dollars each month put up
in shares of the FIRST FEDERAL
SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION
Where it is safe, insured and
will earn you dividends, will ho
mighty helpful to you later in life.
