THE CALL FOR. FRUGALITY. "e do not believe that any society or organization that is giving ten dollar banquets and spending thousands of dollars in what is really waste, are setting a very good example to the people of this community. Such expensive gatherings are entirely unnecessary. This country ought to deal exclusivelv v.ith necessaries now. Frank Vanderlip. the New York banker, in a recent speech, tried to bring the nation to a realization of the perils to which extravagance and wastefulness were leading it. The nation is gripped in the embrace or war. It is as deeply involved as any other nation. It has an obligation to see the conflict through to victory. As the Christian Science Monitor says, ir this obligation shall be fulfilled honorably and successfully, it must be through weeks, months, and perhaps years of self-denial and "selfsacriSce such as most of the prosperous people of the republic have not known. They must learn a new lesson, and nerh.m n spvc rr,Q t ,-r-.i,.

in proportion to their willingness and ability to learn it will bo their ulti-' mats triumph. 7. That the more than 100.000,000 people in the United States, at this stage of the war, and on the heels of the successful Coating of two enormous loans, . should be Risked to save and 'invest their pennies, is due to the conviction of Mr. Vanderlip and other eminent financiers that, before the fight, is flnished, and won, the government at Washington may need every cent it can raise. But something more than this, something far more than this, is ex- ., pected to result from the "thrift savings" loan. It is expected, that is. to be t the meals of impressing upon the people of the United States one of the most useful economic lessens they have ever had. Economy, thrift and frugality must be practiced in the United States sooner or later, and the sooner the better, if disaster is to be averted. "If . r.fed be, we will wreck the business of luxury for the. time being." said Mr. Vanderlip, in hid speech at the Boston City club. "We are facing a danger that threatens the very foundations of our society. I am convinced that this danger is the most real and serious one that we have ever faced. We are going to face it- Get this lesson well fixed in your minds. The dollar always employs labor; if it falls into the wrong pan of the scalo it threatens our success in this war. Remember, it is a trakor dollar, a close ally of the enemy, :; if we spend it for the wrong thing." ? The United States is engaged, with its allies, in a Avar that can be ended orJy by victory, if it is to be ended rightly and finally. The winning o that . war, therefore, overtops everything else in importance. Success at the front - i of far greater moment than Euccess in business, in professional occuna- " lions, in any-common walk of life. Nothing within the human domain, nothing in human production, nothing of learning or of skill, nothing that makes

The new cash basis hns helped all concerned, from producer to ultimate conturner.

What the Bell System Is Doing

f" B AHE value of our nivy depends largely upon the effi1 ciency of the people "back home. ' Adequate means of communication are a tremendous factor in national defense. In demonstration of its ability to supply almost instant service over the whole country, the Bell System a short time before the declaration by the President of a state of was, arranged a forty-hour mobilization test of its facilities. Communication was established between the Navy Department at Washington and all naval stations in the United States, including such widely separated points as Pugct Sound, Wash.; l'ensacola, Fla.; San Diego, Cal., and New Orleans, La. Over fifty-three thousand miles of wire and the services of six hundred employes engaged in making the test. An average of thirty seconds was uken to make most of the connections. Later, bv wireless telephony, Secretary Daniels talked from his desk in the Navy Department with the commander of the battleship New Hampshire, somewhere on the Atlantic. These demonstrations were of importance to every citizen of the country in that they showed the value of the telephone e.s a means of National defense.
