TEN THRIFT COMMANDMENTS.
Victorians a few days ago entered upon a "Thrift Week." The text was to be preached in all schools, and to elders in public meeting, at the instance of a thrift propaganda movement. Here are the ten commandments:— 1. Spend less than you earn—to ensure your being on the road to success. 2. Make a budget, to ascertain how you should dispose of your income. 3. Keep a record of expenditure—to see how close you c*ome to your estimates. 4. Have a bank account—to keep your money in a safe place, and to help you to save. 5. Carry a life assurance—to protect your loved ones in case of your death. 6. Make a will—to ensure your resources going quickly to those you desire to inherit them. 7. Own your own home—to secure the greatest satisfaction in your own home life. ,8i Pay your bills promptly—to meet the moral obligation you have to your creditors. ' 9. Invest in reliable securities—to help your country and to make a wise investment of savings. 10. Share with otfiers—to fulfil your religious duty of stewardship. Melbourne correspondent, "Sydney Daily Telegraph," November 20th.
