Peyton, Ta, nape EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITY IS THE DOMINANT FORCE IN MODERN LIFE. Our National strength—our industrial and commercial prosperity—even our military success —are all based on Education. Now, in particular, is it our duty to ascertain our educational resources, and having done so, to economise them to the best advantage. You know that by a better and more practical knowledge c£ Some subject you can better serve the nation and benefit yourself. What is that Subject? Is it BOOK-KEEPING, or OFFICE ORGANISATION and BUSINESS METHODS, or ACCOUNTANCY, or ADVERTISEMENT WRITING, or SHORTHAND, or Preparation for some PUBLIC EXAMINATION? Let us know, for we can teach you under the individual direction of an expert, in' your own home. Address: — HEMINGWAY AND .R ~ XTRT SON ’& CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOLS LTD., UNION BUILDINGS, AUCKLAND.

Malie More Money—Spend More Money—Save More Money Not a person in this country but is ready, with brothers risking their lives and limbs, to handle their money as the common cause dictates. This will be a minor sacrifice. But how does it dictate? That is the question. The answer is now given in this article —balance appears in next issue. (Part of a remarkable article full of tabloid thoughts for busy folk—thoughts that will materially help in the present crisis when all are anxious to know what is true and what is false economy. The article will be concluded in nest issue.) If we spend less in order to save more, we may undermine the commercial foundation upon which our prosperity is reared. If we spend normally and save only normally, we probably won’t meet our obligations to the Government) Then let’s make more money—so that we can spend more and save more, too. It means harder work. And isn t that what war always means, and logically should mean, for both soldier and civilian? War is so new to us that, as a natural result, a great deal of harmful talk has been utered about economy. Now, there are two kinds of economy. There is an economy that means prosperity and success in war There is another kind of economy that means poverty and defeat The only economy we need is the products of nature When you throw away an uneaten piece of bread or an uneaten potato, .you are wasting something that nature has given you and that cannot be restored. We must not waste food products. But money is quite a different thing. You may spend your money for whatever you like, whenever you like, as you like, and it has not been destroyed. It is intact. It has passed on to other hands, and by those hands will be passed on to still other hands. And it is precisely this .process of passing money from hand tc hand that puts life blood into commerce. And commerce in turn is the thing—and the only thing—that gives employment to men and wonieh, and enables them ■ to buy bread and the necessities of life .... , - Sit tight on your money;vget the close-fisted habit with money, and you are guilty of deadening the world. You are withholding from someone a chance to earn a living, a chance to live When you close your purse and refuse to spend, you murder the power of that, money to buy not only for you, but for every other person to whom that money might pass, were you to give It a start. To live, you must let live. You must do your share You cannot sit tight and still expect to have everything coming your way. It will not come You have a totally mistaken idea of the nation's need if in this hour you interpret its need to mean hoarding pennies. You need not concern yourself that _ the steel in a new bed might have * been used for munitions ” or that benzine used in your motor-car “ might have driven u war truck.” Let’s not be silly. The Government is fully able to control all supplies. If it needs steel, it will take steel; if it needs benzine, it will take benzine. And, so long as steel beds and.motor benzine are on the market, you are the best kind of a New Zealander when you buy them, because you are giving life to the market, which ’--cans prosperity to the nation and the power to prosecute the war (o victory. Our Government will need we know not how many millions of pounds. That money will bo readily forthcoming if wo keep commerce going full steam ahead. \Vo can keep commerce going prosperously only by living as nearly as possible on our normal planes, by working faithfully at our business, by eating all that we require to keep us in good health, by wearing the kind of clothing to which \vc are accustomed, by building and furnishing the homos wo need —in short, by earning and spending. Who. may we ask, would be considered the greater patriot that •• wicked and slothful ” servant who hid his one talent in the ground, or lie that, receiving five talents, “ went and traded with them, and made other five talents?” [Compiled by Collinson and Cunninghams, Lid., of Palmerston North.]
