In the dys of barter and trade there
vas no monev. People had to trade the goods
they made for the goods of other people, and
they knew that they could not get the things
they wanted nor dispose of the things they
hd to sell until they could find someone to
trade with.
So money was
of exchanire. We trad
silver or
with the
paper and
money.
buy
invented as a medium
our goods for gold,
the things we want
Eut the principle is just the same as in
the days of barter and trade if we don't
trade if we don't buy we can't sell.
So, when we refuse to buy the things
we need, it keeps someone else from selling
his goods and buying other goods until it
comes back to us and we find we cannot sell
our ricducts, or cannot get a fair price a
good trade for them.
It's the good old game of give and take,
Making one hand wash the other.
Going without things is often expen
sive economy aside from the effect it has on
ine commerce cf the world.
It often deprives us of the profitable
use of things we really need to make more
money with. Money is not wealth chattels
are wealth. Money is only the medium of
exchanging wealth. So when .we go without
things ve are not adding to our wealth.
It is the spendthrift who is profligate
and unthrifty not the business man who
buys and sells wisely and keeps the wheels of
industry moving by his buying and selling.
Consider building for instance. The
world needs buildings must have them
yet our supply of lumber is growing steadily
smaller. We cannot expect it to decline much
in price because we cannot raise lumber in
one season, and the demand is greater than
the supply. But lumber is really only 22 per
cent of the cost that enters into a building.
When we consider this fact and the fact
that it is becoming more scarce, we can read
ily see that lumber is really a bargain at the
present price. And the man who needs a home
is practicing "expensive economy" by gcing
without it and depriving himself of the means
of better living cr better working facilities. If
building materials should be lower in price the
difference will hot make up for the loss of
going without the building when needed.
And the price will only be lower when
other things are lower our own products
with the rest.
Things should not be measured in dol
lars and cents, because the purchasing power
of money fluctuates. They should be measur
ed in bushels and pound., and then we could
see just how much of our goods we should
have to give for so much of the other fellow's
goods.
Just as in the days of barter and trade.
And if we have lots of goods to trade, we wl
be willing to give more of them for something
we want than when we only have a small
amount.
But let us find someone to trade with
and start the ball rolling by getting the things
we need instead of going without and prac
ticing "expensive economy."
