GEORGE WASHINGTON SAID “Economy makes happy homes and sound nation.” Without contentment and an easy mind, no man can be really happy or successful in his work, and in this fact lies the psychology of saving. Saving creates a desire in you to get ahead. Desire is the first step toward attainment. With your whole attention and best efforts on your work your future needs are assured, and a comfortable old age will be yours. The best way to save is through a bank account. Have it with us.

I ivingston Farrand, lender of the peacetime IRed (Toss, after a brief resume of the past Red Cross I service for humanity, said: "One great important fact must now be made clear tc everyone and that is this; tlie war task of the Red Cross is not ended.

discharged, has found his place in his | home community. wherever that mny be, there still remains u Red Cross responsibility. | "And still another task horn of the I war, cannot he turned aside. The Red Cross work in Franco. Italy and Bel- ( glum can now safely he turned over to those countries themselves to complete; hut in Eastern Europe, ravaged' ’ by battle for nearly live years, there i “ comes a\call which America must 1 heed. And to that task the Red Cross I ’ proposes to put its hand during the] coming year. I •! have spoken to you of the bast I land the present, but what of the future■ of this great organization? That ques-'

tion brings us straight back to this' fact that the war has accentuated and! | sharpened our realization of certain' conditions, the existence of which has for centuries, caused the distress of the world. For the greatest contributing factor in disturbing the happiness! of mankind reduces in the last in-1 stance to questions of physical well j i being, to problems of health and dis-1 ' ease. j “For twenty years there have been | .growing up in this country many pri-1 | vate movements for the prevention of | . [this or that preventable disease. But | in the building up of all these move j jments we found that they became In j inextricably entangled. For the last pen years leaders in this field have] been dreaming of the possibility of | , co-ordinating them. Now that the war' iis ended there appears by reason of I the war, an organization that has the [power to do this thing which for years ! has needed to be done, but could not ■ be done. That organization is the American Red Cross. “Without in the slightest degree of grasping or usurping the field of any other organization, we can get behind these bodies and insert a new kind of cement, a new kind of binding material that will hold them together so

that they will find that they are form-■ *ing one great forward movement for the welfare pf the country. “The biggest activity in this field which the Red (Toss has already un dertaken is the great nursing program. The entire modern health movement depends upon the adequate developments of the visiting nurse. We i are doing the most important thing I first. We propose presently to take .the next step, and then the next, and ' in every way in which it may be pos- ! sible to utilize the energy of our great ■ organization to make our own country ! a better place to live in, and to save I for future generations the benefits for which our men fought and died to

i win.” - At a luncheon during the conference ; Mackenzie R. Todd.
