The National Thrift campaign,
si movement having for its purpose
the educating of America to ideas of
thriTt, opened in Omaha yesterday
with reception by every bank and
financial institution in the city, it
is being continued today in every
ulpit in Omaha, it win continue
londay in a "drive" by the life In
surance companies. Every aay dur
ing the week has been designated as
soras Individual "day" upon which
a particular phaae of "thrift" will be
opened to the public.
- "Thrift does not mean sticking
every cent you can lay your hands
on Into the bank," aayi Walter W.
Had, president of the Omaha Na
tional Sank and head of the Na
tional . Thrift campaign in Ne
braska. Thrift means making your
money do ita full duty. There it
thrift In. earning, thrift In saving,
thrift In spending and thrift In giv
ing. This campaign ia .to teach
thrift in its broad sense. It Is not
intended to. teach stinginess and
penury." '
Thrift Day In Church,
Today is thrift day in the
churches The official name of the
day is "Share' With Others" day.
From practically every pulpit In
Omaha a lesson in thrift in sharing
with othera will be, given. Every
religious denomination in the city
has endorsed the movement and to
day ministers, priests, preachers and
rabbis will all tell their congrega
tions something of the spiritual side
of thrift. ' "
Yesterday was "bank" day. The
16 Omaha banks and building and
loan associations kept "open house"
during the evening. Hundreds of
Omaha people, many with, bank ac
counts, many with savings accounts,
. many without any sort of accounts,
were callers. The guests learned
something about the inside of a
bank. They,va1so came to know the
individual bankers. They learned
that some of the Very biggest ac
counts in the banks were little ac
counts a few years ago. With that
idea in their.miads many ' of the
callers last night will be depositors
before the month is ended.
Protect the Family.
Tomorrow is "Life Insurance"
day. In these days noNman talks
against life insurance as a general
policy. Tomorrow the life insur
ance men of Omaha will talk life in
surance in general,- not some indi
vidual insurance company. They will
try to emphasize to the people the
value of protection for the wife and
the children when the bread-winner
is gone. A number of different
methods will be used to place the
? general subject of life insurance be
ore the people.
Tuesday will be -devoted to the
thought of "Own Your Own Home."
A plan by which every man 'may
own his home will be promulgated
y the , Omaha Real Estate board.
Some years ago Omaha was called a
"City of Homes." Today Omaha is
more of a city of homes than ever
as any one who has attempted to
rent house in this city any time
in the last year will admit. Page
advertisements in the newspapers
on Tuesday will tell something of
thrift in home owning. . - . .
. ' - . "Make a Will" Free. f
, Wednesday prepare to die. Make
a will Wednesday is "Make a
Will" day. Few people may 'see
the connection between thrift and
making a will. Rut if these same
people could put in a few days in
the Douglas county court house and
see the many law suits which have
resulted from the lack of wills, they
might change therr minds. On Wed
nesday any member of the Omaha
Bar association will write a will for
, any caller without, a cent of cost.
The bar association invites all Oma
ha to come in and get its will writ
ten on that day.
'Thrift in Industry" is the par
ticular subject for Thursday. On
that day Omaha employers and
committees of their employes will
get together and settle upon some
plan ,o! collective thrift or saving.
Different plans will be offered
plans which have proven successful
in some of the greatest industrial
plants in America.
"Family Budget"
' Friday is "Family Budget" day.
Making a budget and sticking to it
has been cracked up as one of the
very best plans for thrift that has
so far been "invented." The thrift
committee has offered prizes for the
best family budget submitted for
incomes of $30 per week or for $50
per week, as well as a prize for the
best theoretical ' budget for an in
come of $125 per month. Additional
prizes have been offered for the best
oOO'Word essay on "Should a man
marry on $125 per month?" Already
a number of entries in the contest
'have beert made. v
"Pay Your Bills" Day.
"Pay Your Bills" day, Saturday,
ends the campaign. The Associated
. Retailers of Omaha, in newspaper
advertising and otherwise, will on
that date tell Omaha people the
thrift of paying their bills promptly
when due and thus maintaining their
own credit. They will have other
things to tell the people, also about
hPay Your Bills."
T connection with Thrift week,
rvery school child in Omaha, public,
parochial and private, is entered in
a contest for the best essay on the
subject for each day of Thrift week.
"Highjackers" Enter Home,
But Find No Booze
The basement of the home of J.
: Clarke Coit, 2310 Norti Fifty-sixth
street, was entered Friday night by
persons who are believed to have
"been "highjackers."
- The basement and several upstairs
rooms were ransacked but nothing
was stolen. ; - .
' "They are just wasting their
"time when they come around my
; place looking for liquor," Mr. Coit
told police.
For recovering sunken timbers a
grappling device has been invented
'in Sweden that remains' open when
lowered into water but' closes as it
is raised,' . s v
J. R. Cain, jr., vice president of
the State Bank of Omaha, has been
