Our aim has been to reach the 100W mark and to keep this record consistently. The thrift ideal is to teach the methodical sav- ing of motley with a definite purpose in regard to its ultimate investment: this purpose involving that which would be of the Thrift deposit, at the time of investment. ln this way, we feel that the ideal of Thrift taught in high school to the boys and girls will lead them to invest their money more intelligently when they reach maturity.
