Men and women are talking thrift and economy; children are writing essays on thrift and are earning and saving as never before. There are lectures and published plans and outlines telling how to earn and invest and save; how to avoid waste; how to make best use of time and talents and money; how to preserve and improve the health; how to conserve our natural resources of soil and water and forest, so that they may remain the inheritance of peoples for all time to come. It has been the purpose of the authors to set forth in the present volume the needs for thrift teaching; the aims to be kept in mind, together with practical applications of the thrift principles to the life of the people, as made possible through class-room teaching. The causes leading up to the spendthrift practices of our people are set forth and the necessity for rational habits in proper saving and economy are made plain. Everywhere through the book, however, there is drawn the distinction as between true and false economy. Thrift does not consist in hoarding or in miserly practices.
