a bill proposing tho ciea'ion of a
committee to inquire Into the advis
ability of old-aR3 civil pensions; an
other to prohibit child-labor in tue
Dn'rict of Columbia, another to dis
tribute the treasury surplus for r"oad

A Depreciation Fund
is ftecessary in the
Telephone Business
(Si
After, your shoes begin to wear out you may
have them repaired every little while. But some day
you will find they are beyond repair. v
If you do not accumulate enough money
(a depreciation fund) to replace the wornout shoes,
you may have to go barefooted.
In the telephone business, switchboards, cross
arms, glass insulators, poles, wire and telephone
instruments are some of the things that constantly
require repairing.
If we did not receive enough money from the
sale of telephone service to provide an adequate
depreciation fund to replace or restore our property
. as it wears out, some day we would find our plant
entirely gone and could no longer provide telephone
service.

Eight Ways to Beat the
H. C. L.
1. BE A PRODUCER. Work and earn, to help increase the world's goods, and there
by decrease the cost oz necessities.
2. MAKVJ A BUDGET. Plan how you will dispose of your income. Do not live
from "hand to mouth."
4. KEEP YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK. Pay bills by check and put your surplus
regularly in savings. This keeps your money safe and helps you to save.
5. OWN YOUR OWN HOME. Even if you have to go into debt for it, your greatest
satisfaction will come from living under your own roof.
6. PAY YOUR BILLS POMPTLY. Don 't obligate yourself beyond the limits of your
budget allowances and protect your credit by meeting those obligations promptly.
7. INVEST YOUR SAVINGS. When your savings are sufficient to buy one or more
good bonds, go to your banker and buy them.
8. SHARE WITH OTHERS. Realize that every dollar you place in the bank or in
vest in home town property remains in thecommunity. It is thereby available for local
improvement of all kinds. We are all hereto boost this territory and by leaving your
money available you do only your share.
