Saving is a matter of habit.
And the habit grows, just like
the savings.
To acquire the habit when
young with small sums is to
practice the habit when older
with larger sums.
So encourage the little fel

with us at once, and watch
the habit crow.

ber of proposed laws: which had beer
submitted by member:-.. It is the an
nounced plan eif the federation to
sift these down to possibly thre'- or
feur and place them before the nest

se -ion of the legislature.
One- of the recommendation;? in

sult, state officials, to whom the duty
of its enforcement is delegated by
the law. be made subject to a pen

pointed out.
The law provides, it was stated,
that heads of certain charitable ami
penal institutions ': of the state are;
empowered to enforce this law em
