which begins on Benfajnin Franklins

An immense amount of the trouble
which this country experienced in
1931, and ,to a lesser degree in 1930..
came about because a large number
of people forgot all about thrift in
the boom days from 1923 to 1929,—

of permanent value. Those people
who were thrifty are the ones who
are not complaining of distress in
these hard times.
Thrift does not mean hoarding of
money away where it does -nobody
any. good. It is thrifty to buy or to
build a home, or to put Ha"1tttl#Ttioney
away every pay day for a life insur-
ance or old age fund. Running into
debt is not always" thriftless, provid-
ed the debt is for something of ac-
tual value and the regulaf payments
on principal and interest are not too
heavy to be borne out of fixed in-
comes. The people who are. in the
worst trouble today are the ones who
were never going to be less and
probably would be more.
