LITTLE TALKS ON THRIFT by S. W.STRAUS, President American Society for Thrift. Does It Corie W Within" The Ken of Banking? It is unfertunate that many persons look on thrift merely as a miserly attitude toward life. It is deplorable that this false and harmful conception of thrift is often given encouragement by those who mean well but who are unaware of the ill effects - of such teachings. It is well to bear these thoughts in mind, particularly at this time when one hears occasion- al references to a "buyers' strike." Ruskin's famous analysis of econ- omy is "appropos. "Economy no more means saving mon- he wrote, "than it means spending money ; it means administration of a house; its stewardship; spending or saving, whether money or time, or anything else, to the best possible advantage." This is advice thit°can well be taken at this time. Economy is always advisable, but only harm- ful effects can result from a sys- tem of economy that merges in- to miserliness. The question of correct spend- ng as well as corrett saving is ua! far-reaching importance ing Sentence. | Frederick C. Griffin in = Toronto Star | Weekly.

"STANDARD BANK Kingston Branch, . because, while the elimination of 5 waste and extravagance are al- ways desirable, the general cut. ting down. of legitimate expendi- tures to the point where the gen- | eral business of the country | would be adversely affected, the | wheels of industry | stopped and unem- | ployment. precipi- tated, would most assuredly be a false ~examp'e of thrift. Ruskin's analysis correctly places as much importance - on correct spend- ing as on correct saving. Success' and progress are not the results of penurious prac- tices. . True thrift is progress. Hence those who are truly thrifty keep business on the go because they spend wisely as well as save arefully. | The money which comes into their hands does not lie dormant; neither does it go for purposes that are not up- building. Through the careful adminise tration_of the thousands of our thrifty People money is kept flows ing through channels that mean J. F. Rowland, Manager- --.--.

The usual punishment at the peni- tentiary consists of the loss of re- mission marks and the deprival of privileges such as tobacco. More serious offenders are sent to the pri- son of isolation. Here they are con- fined in cells which are really some- what larger than in the prison pro- per. Their confinément, which not. .|strictly speaking, solitary, is close. They are brought out for half an hour's exercise daily; but they are not permitted to work in one of the gangs for the period of their con- finement, possibly ten dgys, two weeks, a month, or longer, as. the case may be.

In fact, the present {higher officers of the penitentiary did not know of their existence unti! a few months ago, when they were stumbled on by chance. Yet Guard McConville, one of the old-timers with: thirty-eight years service, remembers when convicts were put down there in solitary con- finement and kept there for a year at a time without even getting out for exercise. So times have changed. PRINCIPAL GRANT'S POINT OF VIEW fo It our former: teliow-citizen' n- cipal Grant, were still with )s, his judgment on a present religious ques- tion would be of great weight; but '| "though dead he yet speaketh.) This is how he viewed the matter. "The great churches of the Re- formation will, as a preliminary to organic union, rewrite their confes- sions, adapt them to our own time, and find out the extent of the com- mon ground on which Christians now stand. What is required in this work is not the elimination of phrases and ¢hapters, or the addition of supple- mentary articles and understandings, tut the testimony of the church's faith, written from a new pcint of view which we =i occupy. "'The organizing principle of the twentieth century confessist will be, not the sovereignty, brt the father hood of God; tot his secret purpose, but His revealed will, tnat all men should come to the knowledge 5 the truth. This central - revelation of God will dominate the view taken of man's nature, place and duty. It will be recognized that love is might- fer than, because inclusive of, faith; that the note of every true church must be hope, and that every work by which man is benefited is Christian | work." "Firis confessional revision the ne- gojiefing churches have made. Of earlier utterance than the above, the distinguished man said on the eve of a great unton event--1815 ----that "he did not see why all the Presbyterians should not unite with the Methodists, and afterwards all unite with the Anglicans, but on? step at a time, and this must be the first step. The minority should be careful that what they called their conscientious objections were really matters of conscience, as Presbyter- fans were prone. to err on that point. The only reason why 'Presbyterian- | Lamb fsm bad not become the distinctive protestant church of Christendom was that men called that conscience which proved unworthy of the name." Spinach, 1b.
