Prepared in the Interest of the People
To Save Is to Have
Suppose you save 25 cents a day. That
does not mean much to the average man.
You won't miss it.
Yet that 25 cents a day in ten years grows te nearly
a thousand dollars. And the interest, which we pay
you for saving your money, brings the total te
well over eleven hundred dollars.
Think of what you can do witb this.
Realize Your Dreams
Just a few years of small but steady savings will
bring you many of the things you are longing for.
Perhaps you want a car. Perhaps you want to buy
the farm next to you. Perhaps you want to start a
son in business, or to go traveling, or to educate
yourself or your children.
Saving will do all these. And best of all. you will
have formed the saving habit and will never be one
of the nine men

HOOVER IS IN FAVOR
OF EARLIER CENSUS
Suggests that One be Held in 1925
or Thereabouts Because of Dis
satisfaction With last.
Washington. Dec. 12. Because of
a "considerable dissatisfatcion" with
the result of the count in the census
taken last January, the house census
committee is considering legislation
providing for another enumeration
of the population of the United
States In 1925 or some other year
prior to the next decehnial census.
Secretary Hoover says today in that
portion of his annual report dealing
with the activities of the census bu
reau: "This proposed legislation has my
approval," Mr. Hoover says, adding
that "it has frequently been contend
ed that the distribution of the popu
lation as shown by the reports of the
fourteenth census is abnormal; that
prior to that enumeration there was
a great movement from rural to ur
ban districts which since the enum
eration, has been neutralized in large
measure by a reverse movement, and
that this shifting of the population
effected the totals for certain states,
thus influencing the apportionment
of representatives in congress."
Census-taking in January is disap
proved on the ground that the weath
er in that month is a serious handi
cap to the enumerator, delaying the
work and making it necessary "to
take unusual precautions to insure a
complete canvass. The report says
the time for taking the next census
should be in April, as was the case
before the last census. The change
for tbe last census was made, it says,
at the request of various interests

tne idea being that more accurate
statistics could be obtained concern
ing the activities of the farms if the
canvass was made shortly after the
end of the year to which it related.
Mr. Hoover also says that the new
director of the census. William M.
Steuart, is of the opinion that in or
der to advance the work of subse
rrfent censury it will be necessary
that changes be made in methods of
procedure, if not in the scope of some
of the inquiries.
