Wisdom in Saving And in Buying
President Topoliff of the Morris Plan Company of Orange county, who is a personal friend of President Walter H. Bennett of the Emigrant Industrial Savings Bank of New York, heartily endorses what the Gotham financier had to say about "What the Dollar Will Buy," a booklet which has received national prominence during the last few weeks.
The New York bank, Mr. Topoliff explains, is a mutual concern with deposits of $397,877,082, and is recognized as one of the leading savings institutions in America's largest city. After reviewing the value of the dollar now in comparison to 1928, when employment was easy to get, and money easier to spend, the booklet stresses the necessity of saving during flush times.
It's conclusion for today is:
"Keep on deposit all you should have as a reserve against emergencies. If that reserve is not yet large enough (it should be equal to at least six months' salary) add to it! But if you have a surplus above all likely needs, make careful purchases of things you want for permanent use while prices remain low. See that your home is put in good repair. Do not let your automobile or any other property get 'run down.' If you have long needed an added piece of furniture, shop carefully and buy it now. Buy clothing in reasonable quantities. Buy real estate if you are planning for a home of your own. Land values have not been so low in many years, and mortgage money for building can be had at very reasonable terms. Wise spending at the right time is as much a part of good thrift as saving all you can when prices are going up. Moreover, judicious spending now will help to set the wheels of industry turning more rapidly and restore employment to thousands now out of work."
"Alfalfa Bill" Murray, governor of Oklahoma, may not know what he is doing, but anyhow the newspaper reporters around the state house don't have to worry about getting plenty of copy.

20,000,000th Ford Comes to Anaheim
The 20,000,000th Ford car, resplendent in its freshness from the factory at Dearborn, Mich, arrived in Anaheim this afternoon where it was received with general acclaim from a committee of official greeters and from the public in general during its brief stay at the local Ford agency of M. P. Thompson company.
The greeters' committee was made up of Mayor L. R. Miller, City Manager John W. Price, Chief of Police James Bouldin, Fire Chief Rudolph Nyboe; Charles Pearson, president of the Chamber of Commerce, and George W. Reid, secretary of that organization.

Most women that we talk to express
entire satisfaction with the new fashions.
They find them easy to wear and
most becoming, but one of our readers
has written to tell us that she is not
at all satisfied.
"My arms are painfully thin," she
says, "and practically all the summer
dresses are either sleeveless or short
sleeved. The only long sleeved dress
that I can find in the stores is too matronly. I have decided to make some
dresses for myself with long sleeves.
I need a new evening dress and would
like to make it with long sleeves if
possible, because during the summer
long gloves are out of place."
Probably this reader is unduly conscious of her thin arms. A good plan
is never to mention or draw attention
to one's shortcomings of that sort and
the chances are that others will not
notice them. It is true that most of
the summer dresses are sleeveless or
short sleeved, but I have seen charming, youthful dresses of the long sleeved
sort. For the evening dress I would
not advise long sleeves, as they would
seem out of place. Actually gloves will
be worn extensively for rather formal
evening parties this summer, but if
you do not wish to wear them, why not
take advantage of one of the new scarf
draperies? At dances recently we
have noticed several scarfs of this sort
and one most attractive young woman
always dances with her scarf ends falling down over her arms.
Successful home dressmaking does
not consist merely of careful cutting
and fitting and neat finishing. This season especially we must also think of the
little dressmaker touches and clever
trimnings that make a dress distinctive
or otherwise.
Actually this little touch of distinction
is not difficult to achieve. Keep your
eyes open when you go through the
shops and you will see all sorts of clever
ways to finish collar and cuffs and waistline,
or interesting ways of introducing a touch of color.
This week's sketch shows a very simple applique design used on one of the new sports dresses. It looks like Japanese but you don't have to be Japanese to make it. On a jersey blouse you should make the design of contrasting color, or if you wish to use the design on a linen or cotton dress for early autumn, make the design of linen or cotton. To begin with draw off the design on a piece of paper of the desired size and then cut it out, allowing a quarter inch on all edges. Then cut out the material, according to this pattern, turn in the edges a quarter of an inch, pin in position, baste carefully at the edges and stitch or hem into place.
One advantage of this design is that it does not have to be symmetrical and that the outlines are intentionally a trifle irregular so that with ordinary care in drawing off your design you may be sure of success.

SURPLUS
The Federal Farm Board has too much wheat and cotton on hand. The Brazilian government has too much coffee on hand. We want coffee, Brazil wants wheat; so an international swap has been arranged.
The Chinese are suffering for food. The Nanking government has asked the Farm Board to sell it $5,000,000 bushels of wheat a month for six months, on long-time credit. It may be a very long time, but it seems to me worth doing. It will relieve millions and harm no-
focused on Arcturus in the spring of 1933. The ray of light which will have been forty years on its travels will be reflected into a photosensitive cell which will convert it into electric energy. This energy will throw a switch which will turn on the lights of the new World's Fair and officially open the Exposition.
Nothing could be more fitting to illustrate the progress of science in the past forty years. The exhibition which is to be opened by light from a star will contain the greatest marvels ever brought together. What the mind of man has achieved in the conquest of nature since the last Chicago World's Fair is almost unbelievable.
GRATITUDE
I want to pay my respects to my neighbor, Miss Nellie Gray of West Stockbridge, Mass., who has done something like of which I never heard of.
She has given the town of West Stockbridge $5,000 as recompense for the 25 years during which the town supported her. That's gratitude.

It may be a very long time, but it seems to me worth doing. It will relieve millions and harm nobody. It will relieve this country of much of its wheat surplus, save storage charges and save human lives. There ought to be nothing in any laws to prevent it being done.
Now if all of the cotton states will join in making it illegal to grow any cotton at all in 1932, that surplus will be wiped out and fair prices will return in the cotton market.
VACATION
Professor Willis A. Sutton, head of the school system of Atlanta, who has just retired as president of the National Education Association, says that the long summer vacation without responsibility does children more harm than food and puts too much of a burden on their parents.
Dr. Cutton's remedy, as far as city schools are concerned, is to give pupils summer work to do which will take them out of doors but still occupy time which otherwise would be spent in aimless play.
There is much sound sense in what Dr. Sutton says that it will not surprise one if a complete revolution in school systems results from it. More vacations and shorter ones are better for children and for their families than the long, responsible summer period of idleness.
STARS
Thirty-eight years ago a ray of light left the star Arcturus and started toward the earth. It takes light, traveling at the rate of 189,000 miles a second, forty years to get from Arcturus to the earth. The ray which started in 1903, the year of the great World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, will reach the earth in 1933, when Chicago intends to stage another World's Fair.
At the Yerkes Observatory at Geneva, Wisconsin, the great telescope will be achieved in the conquest of nature since the last Chicago World's Fair is almost unbelievable.

She has given the town of West Stockbridge $5,000 as recompense for the 25 years during which the town supported her. That's gratitude.
Nellie Gray is 72 years old and has been a helpless cripple since she was 10 months old. Her gentle face in her wheel chair is familiar to everybody in the town. Up to 25 years ago a sister supported her, after the death of their parents, but on the sister's death there seemed to be no one to help, so the Solicetmen have provided her a meager living out of the town funds every year since.
There was a brother, but he had left home and nobody knew where he was. Not long ago he was killed by an automobile, and it was discovered that he was worth $70,000, all of which came to Nellie Gray. And the very first thing she did with her inheritance was to offer $5,000 to the Town, to help pay for the new $14,000 bridge over the Williams river.
"I'm going to fix up the old Gray homestead," Miss Nellie says, "and live there the rest of my life. But first I had to fix up the town that has taken care of me so generously. Everybody has been wonderful to me, but you can't believe how happy I am not to be the town pauper any more."
MOVIES
Only seventeen percent of the featured motion pictures now being shown in the United States are fit for children to see, according to "The Parents' Magazine." The motion picture department of that periodical is edited in cooperation with the General Federation of Women's Clubs, the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Woman's University Club of Los Angeles, and several other women's organizations.
The best current pictures, according to the same authority, are Cimarron City Lights, A Connecticut Yankee, The Conquering Horde, Daddy Long Legs, Father's Son, The Great Meadow, The Millionaire, Pagliacci Shipmates, Skippy, Tom Sawyer and Trader Horn.
