ONE INDICATION OF CHARACTER By Oscar Schmidt. "He owns his home" —this remark is often advanced as evidence of a man’s standing in the community-. As few indeed inherit a home it is usually a good indication of a man’s stability that he has put his money into a permanent memorial of his frugality. The most practical way to realize one’s desire of owning a home is by budgeting expenses and investing a set amount each month. To help you realize this worthy ambition is the sole excuse for the existence of the Savings & Loan Asso- : elation. It offers the investor 6 per cent dividends for the use of his money to help some other prospective home owner realize his dream. The saver of today is the home owner of tomorrow.

Why Pay a Big Price for a Little Wash? When you have a laundress do your washing, the charge is the same week after week. That charge is based on a BIG week’s , washing, but it is never reduced during those many weeks when the wash is small. When you send your clothes to the laundry you NEVER pay more than the wash is worth—and you can ALAN ATS figure the cost in advance if you care to do so. For instance, if you use the FAMILY FINISH SLRN ICE, which is the COMPLETE laundry service, y/m have simply to weigh the flat pieces in one bundle and the wearing apparel in another, and then use the following chart to compute the cost. Just find the figure in the upper line which corresponds to the pounds of FLAT WORK, and the one in the side line which cor- . responds to the pounds of WEARING APPAREL. NV here the lines join, you will find the price of the complete wash —Family Finished. The cost for 12 pounds of flat work and 5 pounds of wearing apparel is $2.77. The average charge for Family Service in the city of Indianapolis is below $3.00. The average cost of having the laundry done at home, including meals furnished to the laundress, and other incidentals, is above $3.00. Why pay the difference and put up with the worry of Having the washing done at home? Save yourself time, trouble, worry—and money. Phone the laundry for complete information concerning FAMILY FINISH SERVICE.

Making Tracks One of the best ways to tell a person's fortune is to study his footprints. Some people start for fortune’s goal, wander off into every byway and never arrive. Others plod along, get discouraged and turn back to the starting point.
