COSTLYMISTAKES By OSCAR SCHMIDT If ‘'Experience is a good teacher,” then this year should see a flourishing period for the Saving & Loan Association. People who have learned a sad lesson by making unwise in\estments In the past will naturally turn to this institution as the safe and sane place for their savings. Seven and a half million dollars last year could have gone into the building of homes for deserving Americana had It not been sunk Into worthless Investments. In other words twentyfive hundred families could have had three thousand dollars apiece toward the building of a home with money which was actually thrown away. Another thing—the owners of this money by investing it in Saving & Loan Associations would have realized besides the safety of their savings, dividends amounting to four hundred and fifty thousand dollars Just figures. but they convey a hard learned lesson.

Esther Silverman Has Been Writing Poems Since She Was a Tiny Tot.’

P“|OEMS that “just come” fill a notebook of Esther Silver___l man, 12, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Silverman, 1523 Madison Ave. Ever since she was just a tot — she’s not much more now —Esther has been writing. Now she can write almost any kind of poem. She doesn’t know much about meter, but expects to acquire that knowledge in high school. No dreams of being a famous poet does Esther have. Oh, no. When she grows up she is going to be a lawyer. But she supposes she will keep on writing, because she just thinks of poems without intending to.

But me and Amy Williams is Gonna make a surprise Were gonna take the pumpkins down And then we 11 make the pies. But w hit happened on the next day— I hate to tell you that! ’Cause when the pie was finished. It Just came out so fiat. And me and Amy Williams Was just about to cry.
