ThriftlsPreparedness. Financial strength is to na tions as important as milita ry strength. No nation can survive a war if it cannot finance itself. The man who fortifies him self with an account in a savings banK does more than prepare himself-he contributes to the prepared ness of the country.

Writ lug 'of flutes in his hook. "The Seienee of Musical Sottnds." he says: "The traditional itatluenee of diirer out metals on the lite tone Is conf sistent with the ex'erimental results obtained from the organ pile. Brass and Gaermnan silver are usually hard. stiff and thick anti have but little lin fluence upon the air coluimn. anad Ihe tone is said to be hard :and trumpet like. Silver Is dense and softer adu adds to the iuellowntess of the tone. "'The much greater softness and density of gold atid still more to the soft masiveaness of tIhe walls. giving an effect like the organ litpe sutrroid ed by water. Elaborate nnnlyses of the tones from (lules of wood, glass. silver and gold prove that the Iont fron the gold flute is mnellower and richer, having it longer and louder se ries of parthils Ihana flutes of other ta terials."
