It is -the duty of every law-abiding
citizen to step up and pay their poll
tax, go vote, and thereby do their part
in directing public affairs. We often
hear people, about election time, say
“I Just forgot to pay my poll tax.”
When it comes to paying your poll tax
“forgetting” is not a valid excuse.
Pay your poll tax today! ’

MOODY ATTENDS DRUGGISTS’
BANQUET
The entire United States is cele-
brating the birthday of Benjamin
Franklin this week in National Thrift
Week. Thrift Week was at first
Thrift Day, bttt has developed into
Thrift. Week, the object of which is to
teach lessons of thrift and stress the.
great importance of thrift all over
the' land. It was Benjamin Franklin
who said, “A penny saved is a penny
earned.” Practicing the. policy af
thrift, he saved a little of everything
he earned, adyocating that a man
should save a part of'his earnings,
however small.
There are more ways to practice
thrift than by saving a part of your
earnings. Spend judicially. Plan
your spending. Keep a budget, separ-
ating your needs and alloting a cer-
tain sum to each and staying within
the limits proscribed for. each individ-
ual need.
You can save money by saving time.
You can save money by making care-
ful and judicial investments. You qan
save money by looking ahead to the
ftiture and preparing for it. You can
dare money by being systematic in
your plan of saving.
It has been truly said that “Nothing
given men greater confidence in them-
selves, greater incentive to work hard
and achieve big things than a little
-money in the bank ”
The National Thrift Committee of
the Young. Men’s Christian Associa-
tion is responsible for the Thrift Week
campaign and is persistently endeavor-
ing to keep before the people this!
